BimmerCode after Recall DME Update

I had my car in for service this past weekend and there was a DME update recall (something about adding a rev limiter when vehicle in P).

To do the update, they had to reflash my car - so I had to redo all the BimmerCode coding.

However, the Instrument Cluster and Headunit menus are now greyed out and I cannot access them.

Anyone else has same experience?

Would I have to just sit tight and wait for BimmerCode to update based on the new flash?

Thanks

Just got it done and Bimmercode is working fine. Do you have the latest version of the app? I'm on Android, but Apple products might be lagging.

What if you don't want a rev limiter in P?

I'm using it on Android, let me check for any BimmerCode updates tonight.
I use an iPhone, and only have an old Android for the sake of BimmerCode (since I used to be on Android) so it's probably outdated.
Thanks!

For me it didn't really matter since I don't do any Parking revs or Neutral revs.
But it was a recall so why not.

I saw this happening for example if I changed the car, the modules would grey out. Just reset the bimmercode and the ignition and try a few times and it should work.

Was this recall B122019 ? Will this wipe out previous coding ? Thanks
