How did you increase the LEDs by 70? It's my understanding that Hex 64 = 100%.

Where did you do this within the bimmercode app? I can’t find it anywhere.

I like the clean look.

I did a few things this past weekend, but my favorite is disabling the opening warnings screens and dings...I knew they were annoying, but I never realized how annoying until they were gone!

Easy seat entry is next up on the list.

From the iOS app in Demo mode:



There are various options for angel eyes in the real live mode after you've bought and unlocked the app.

I always check around for anything else of interest.
I would love to disable the seatbelt chime. I'm an adult and I don't need my car screaming at me as if I were a child. Is this done in expert mode? I couldn't find the setting for it...

No you can do this in dummy mode.

I believe it is located in FEM (front electronic module).

My absolute favourite is Easy Seat Entry! That makes the biggest difference to me! Second place goes to "Remember seat heating setting - infinitely".
The rest are nice to have ones, some more useful than the others, but the above are really must haves to me.
What I am really missing is 5 blinks on the turn signals... unfortunately not possible (so far) on LCI.

1. Bimmercode app but search on here for F30 coding cheat sheet.

2. Handy when manoeuvring through a speed restriction. Narrow barrier I go through on a country lane. Camera would cut out early but I needed it on to drive through it without damaging my wheels.

Sunroof close with rain sensor:
Have you tested how it works? Doesn't it close the sunroof when you spray on the windshield as well? (It does make sense to have it closed when you spray, but it would be too late )

Does it count, if I use a Carly?

1. Disable seatbelt chime
2. Disable iDrive legal disclaimer
3. Fold and unfold the mirrors on locking and unlocking
4. Change iDrive display to 'M'
5. Video in motion
6. Window control with remote
7. Tailgate close with remote
8. Turn off iDrive when I open driver's door (exit the vehicle)
9. Doors automatically unlock as soon as ignition is turned off

You find the option in the FEM tab of the Carly app.

Unlock car when turned off
• on
• off
Doors are automatically unlocked, when engine is turned off. Only works if the doors were automatically locked by the car while driving.

Got it, the the doors have to be locked automatically for it to work is what got me. That matters a lot more sense to me now Thank you.

Does HK to BO make any difference to the sound?

I’ve coded:
Remembering the stop/start setting
Enable door handle leds when reversing
Real speed in centre display
Enable chirp on alarm enable/disable

I want to enable tyre temperature in idrive but haven’t got round to doing it yet.
