Hi Dave

Do you have bootcamp on your mac? Assuming it's a laptop?

I have windows 10 installed on my MacBook Pro, and was able to run E-sys and code that way without any issues.

Hi Dave,

I live near woodhall and have successfully loaded the program / connected to the car. I've not made any changes as yet, I'm waiting for the opportunity to really concentrate and that's not easy with the kids
You're welcome to come over and help me with my car then do the changes to yours?

Puddle lights in reverse,
Rear lights on with drl,
Front fogs for corners,
One touch mirror fold,
M performance logo on instrument cluster,
Separate the ambient lighting from instrument cluster,
Tried to increase the volume of the active sound too but to no avail...

The difficult part is making sure you follow the instructions (sounds daft but you'll know what I mean) first time I tried loading it, it wouldn't work, I then realised I had missed one simple step.

Ones you have the Esys software working, you carefully follow the instructions again, best make a small list of what you need to change.

I've only been doing it a week and I can nip out to the car, link up, make a change, save it and be done in less than ten mins...

Problem is, I'm looking for more and more changes I can make

Buy Bimmercode and a dongle ya tight git, it’s only £45 for all the coding you ever want to do on your current and future BMW’s, and it literally couldn’t be easier to do!
