Coding - Aberdeen/Dundee?
Anyone on here from Aberdeen/Dundee, or anywhere in between, that would be able to code enhanced Bluetooth for me? I think I need it to view text messages on idrive screen? Obviously a few beers in it! PM if you prefer. Cheers

OP if you are ever in the Edinburgh area. I can sort it for you (and any other coding you need) . Literally a two min job.

Thanks stu14t, good to know. I am sometimes down your way with work or the odd Ikea trip so will bear in mind. Am I right in saying coding the enhanced BT will allow me to view texts in idrive? Cheers

Yes, you're correct. With some phones and additional apps, other things too, like WhatsApp and email messages |

I have a GC 430XD on order, what benefits would I gain from having some coding applied? I have no folding mirrors, mainly just went for the stock with MSport+ package. |

Teaston prepared a great guide on coding EBT and I run a windows laptop in any case, so I'm actually just thinking I'd be better off buying my own cable and software and doing it myself. I can then re code to save any problems when the car is in for service etc Last edited by Bianchi Dave; 12-30-2016 at 02:31 PM.. |

Thanks, I'm trying to get my head round this subject, not sure what features I would want to consider coding. Does the coding affect the warranty. I have the professional BMW with the HK, does this mean it will have the enhanced BT... My car isn't due till the end of Jan as its still to be built, so will try gather some info before considering.

For the most part, coding, when done propely, is virtually undetectable by the dealer and does not effect your warranty. |

I have apple car play on my F30 and it reads the messages out to you. Does EBT show the message/whatsapp text on the i drive screen? |

I have an Android phone and EBT will show text messages on the iDrive screen but with an additional app you can get it to display any messages like WhatsApp, Facebook, email etc...
