Can I code these features to my car?
I've got the coding buzz but additionally, I don't want to brick my car so can I get some advice on whether or not I can code the following.
Before I list these items, I have a CIC HU with Business Navigation (Smaller screen), and my car is a 320d MSport with sports auto (paddles on wheel). HU_CIC 3000 NAVI_FUELSTOP_PROPOSAL Proposes a suggested Fuel Stop in a Route when it believe it will run out of gas. Advanced Real-Time Traffic Information To acKvely change routes based on Traffic, enable Traffic Info under OpKons in NavigaKon and enable Dynamic Guidance in Route Preferences. HU_CIC 3000 NAVI_TRAFFIC_INFO_MAP Real-Time Traffic Info - Part 1 HU_CIC 3002 TI_CA_TMC Real-Time Traffic Info - Part 2 HU_CIC 3002 TI_VINFO Real-Time Traffic Info - Part 3 HU_CIC 3002 TI_TMC_REGIONAL Real-Time Traffic Info - Part 4 HU_CIC 3002 TI_FALLBACK_DISABLED Real-Time Traffic Info - Part 5 HU_CIC 3000 Macro_fds Configure sport mode in iDrive (Does not work for HU_NBT) HU_CIC 3000 EFF_DYN_SPORT_CID Enables Sports Displays on non-Navi iDrive. (Doesn't work for diesel.) HU_CIC 3000 EFF_DYN_SPORT_UNIT Adds Sports Display units in the Language/Units settings menu Finally, what's the launch control all about. Seems like a bit of fun but I think it would destroy the clutch before long. How does it work and any posts on this? |

I have all the features you mentioned on my car and they're working great.
Launch control works only with sport transmission which also works very well. LC is fun but in my opinion you shouldn't use it too often. I use it once in a while and my car doesn't look like it's suffering a lot from it. I actually got bored of that LC after some time. |

Any ideas what I could have done wrong? Also what is the exact procedure to enable launch control? |

My car doesn't have sport+ but the procedure should be the same
1.) Push the DCT button but don't hold it 2.) Put the gearbox to sport by pushing it left, don't go to manual 3.) push the brake as far as you can 4.) push the accelerator to the floor and hold it until a flag appears and you have a message that launch control is active 5.) let off the brake and you're off |

You should not enable launch control if your car didn't come with it. The launch control requires additional cooling hardware, so you run the risk of breaking your motor.

Don't know who told you that but it's not true. I spoke about it with the dealer and they confirmed that there is no such thing. However i live in europe and it is possible that US spec is a bit different. |

I don't think launch control is good for any car, no matter what cooling it has
All that additional drivetrain stress cannot be good, I wouldn't use it even if my car came with it. |

It's not for everyday use.
I don't use it all the time, and would not tell anyone that it's fine to do it all the time. I have to say that the LC in our cars doesnt work like it should. In my opinion it's just a gadget to make the car look sportier in the brochure. After I coded it I used it a couple of times on a small empty road. I can't imagine anyone in any car on a set of lights with the car at 4000rpm waiting for the green light. |

I tried looking for additional cooling hardware on the sports auto vs "normal" auto, but I couldn't find any. The realoem site shows exactly the same hardware (gearbox) Quote:
To me, it definitely seems to shift more aggressively. Not to mention that there's a difference between launching the car from idle or from 3k RPM, as the latter allows you to start from peak torque (depending on the engine).

I have coded NAVI_FUELSTOP_PROPOSAL.
How and when does it work? Haven't noticed any different behaviour during my roadtrip through Europe. I din't get any proposed fuelstop when I was low on gas. (I was following a route on the navi) |
