Finally got around to coding a few things in the replacement GM, plenty frustrating as my desktop PC is completely unable to access these modules on the e53. My laptop was giving me some trouble but eventually got it to work. (My E70 used to be a breeze, connected easily to either, not sure why the e53 is so much more finicky.)

Coded the GM to unlock all doors with one push of the remote. Some time back I messed up my GM in a low voltage incident and decided to get another one rather than try to reset at the dealer (it reverted to transport mode....) The replacement module had the selective door unlocking enabled which was starting to bother us. There are 5 settings, one for each key plus a general one.

Also coded the GM to allow window auto up/down function to work when door is open and open/close windows with the key remote.

Lastly, with some trepidation, coded the LCM. Some have had some trouble after coding their LCM but all I wanted was the Fog Lights to come on with the High Beams. It is a bit scary as after the coding completes, the trifecta is on, all the settings on the nav screen revert to factory. But resetting all of these was no trouble.

It is too cold today to be in the garage and installing new brake pads and mounting the winter tires will have to wait for slightly better temps.
