I see. It may not be necessary to replace the GWS but what's the benefit of replacing it? None?

That would depend on whether it is different or not, and as I wrote, for F30, I don't know if it is different or not.

According to ETK, they are different.

F3x has it's own SAT Gear Shift though, so why would you want one from an F10?

I added the SAT to my car and it is a pretty significant difference, especially in manual mode. I am still in the process of adding in Launch control. In order to get it to work, I upgrade the I-step level on the EGS ecu which was a pretty scary experience. The option is now available for FA coding, and I added it. I just drove a few miles (instructions said it had to be warm) and couldn't get it to come up. I realized I forgot to recode in the SAT when I updated the ecu so I just did that and will try it again next time I drive in the chance that SAT is required for it to work.

ICM Module/ 3000 Daten/ IcmKod_B_Sportlenkung/ verbaut

EGS/3000 Applikation -> Sportschalter_alt -> aktiv
EGS/3000 Applikation -> Sportschalter -> aktiv

ICM/IcmKod_B_S2TBA -> verbaut

It will activate sport+ and sport transmission )))
Or you also could add 2TB option and delete 205 in salapa element
which part of this is for sports automatic transmission only?

i did
ICM Module/ 3000 Daten/ IcmKod_B_Sportlenkung/ verbaut

EGS/3000 Applikation -> Sportschalter_alt -> aktiv
EGS/3000 Applikation -> Sportschalter -> aktiv

ICM/IcmKod_B_S2TBA -> verbaut

and got a Chassis stabilization error, althought it went away when i restarted the car. I dont feel a difference in the shifts

Is it possible to code SAT shifting behavior on F30 318 or F20 118 which usually are not available with sport auto from factory?

Do not worry abt. "Chassis stabilization error" - it always pops up
You did everything right . When you put your shifter to DS - do you see S1 indication on dash board ?
This is how it supposed to look (flag is LC)

No, its not possible in general.

Some people say that they were able to code launch control and sport tranny, but I have not seen it personally.

Try it out.

If you code both Sportschalter and Sportschalter_alt to aktiv, you will.

These are in EGS (or GKEB) / 3000.

Just quick question.

For the people who coded SAT, did you guys also buy the SAT Gear shift or just code those values?

Just checking.

Makes me want to code in the SAT. Don't know why the 12-13 MY 328s didn't get the 2TB option but gets it in 14 for Canadian models.

*Should have also asked my advisor if they could order the Sport Steering Wheel with Paddles instead of the same replacement since I'm getting the wheel replaced under warranty anyways*

Does the transmission shift any better in just the normal Comfort/Sport modes?

Yes, definitely better and sportier in my opinion

You can also buy yourself a new steering wheel with shifters, and sell yours. If you code stated above values shifters gonna work

You can also retrofit shifters to the sport steering wheel (some cuttings will be required)

How does launch control work?

What I usually do is turn DSC fully off, hold brake, press the throttle pedal and release brake pedal.

Is it any better than "my launch control"?
