6WB coding tread

Skyhigh · 02-06-2022, 03:27 AM

No, you cannot.
You can however configure Sport mode to be less sporty and Comfort-alike through its settings.

Months ago, i saw a video on YouTube (i cant find it now) with Red bar that show you when you need to change gear and it was cool. Anyone knows how can we enable it?

Skyhigh · 02-07-2022, 01:52 AM

It is enabled from factory on certain model-years. Only shows in Sport /Sport+.

Just installed 6WB to my F30. It has not been virginalised since it was removed from a car that had lower mileage than mine. It shows correct mileage, after some coding everything works fine except the date/time is not set on the 6WB, (it is set on NBT, but not on the instrument cluster). Also after installation, all the service reminder notifications pop up every time I turn ignition on (oil service, check service etc.). I wasn't able to clear these notifications with ProTool, it says to check my ignition.
Does anyone know how to set date/time on 6WB and is it going to let clear all these service reminders.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

as it was not virginized you will not be able to reset your services.
to be able to set time you need to code your HU and set "kombi_cic" to kombi_high.

I just did the 6WB and ID6/CarPlay Retrofit to my 2014 328i. I have Navi guidance in the cluster if I use the BMW nav, but it’s blank if I’m using CarPlay.
Do the turn by turn instructions from CarPlay show in your instrument cluster?

no, it only shows OEM navigation guidance.

Thank you! I guess it can’t be perfect… and it’s a shameful waste of space…

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys just wondering if anyone finally solved this mystery. it seems to be a resolution issue on HUD (images are to big). Again any help would be appreciated.

Guys what happens to the service info when you do this upgrade.
Like the brake service in 10kkm and oil service in 2000km, when you switch clusters do you loose that info? Or can you code that info back in?

You don't lose anything. That information comes from the NBT unit and is simply displayed on 6WA or 6WB cluster

I have just installed a 6WB in my 2014 F31. I paid to have the cluster virginized and programmed (well, basic programming). I had to code navigation and the clock after realizing they weren't working. I am now wondering why I don't have an "Instrument Cluster" option on my NBT. I tried coding "LOUPE_TACHO_KOMBI" and the other items listed in this thread, nothing changes.

I am still pretty green when it comes to overall understanding/working e-sys, I can only do basic coding.

I have not checked my I-step version, but I am sure it's VERY VERY old. My 6WB was a donor from a 2018 MY vehicle.

I am also in the midst of acquiring all the items I need to retrofit the HUD.

I think I made a mistake by buying a MY 2013 HUD unit after reading all of your responses.

Anyone have any advice on what to do next in regards to the NBT issue, or what else I need to account for if continuing to pursue the HUD? I did buy a 6WB with HUD connector.

Thanks!

Hi
I retrofitted 6WB in my 07/12 F30 with CIC head unit. VO coded 6WB and CIC and fdl coded kombi_cic -> kombi_high and everything works good except no 6WB specific code available on my CIC. Such as: LOUPE_TACHO_KOMBI or KOMBI_AUFLOESUNG ...
Am I missing anything? my car I-step level is 03/20
