I was not particularly interested in coding a permanent solution but wanted a temporary one where i could choose when to have the flap open and when not too. This is why I figure i would ask about the bimmerlink/ bimmercode options. As i see they have an option to control the exhaust flap.

I dont always want my flap open on cold starts, my neighbors think Its loud enough already, but would be fun to be able to make it really aggressive sometimes when out on a meet or such.
Yes, you can do this manually with bimmerlink. Just turn on the ignition, run the app and have it open the flap before starting the car.
Have you tried this personally or just guessing? Im thinking about buying the app but my only need is the exhaust flap to open on cold starts and it feels dumb to buy it in case it wouldnt work.
