If you can scan those installation instructions and send them to me that would be great.
As far as coding being mentioned, note that at least for the euro hitch there are two sets of instructions. One set just for the hitch components (which makes no mention of coding). And one set just for the hitch wiring harness (which does mention coding). I only assume the same is true for the US hitch; that's what I'm working on (as I currently don't have a hitch installed). I think what might be confusing to some people is that the BMW instructions on the tips and tricks page are: - only for the euro hitch - not complete, since they do not include the wiring harness installation instructions - an older version of the instructions Quote:

Weasel
Will the coding sort out the flashing lights when the X is switched off?

I installed OEM hitch on the 2006 4.4i with parking sensors.
Trailer lights do work and Parking sensors are disabled when trailer is attached with no programming. Parking assist can not be turned on once trailer is connected. |

None of that means that the trailer stability function has been activated though.

Just for clarification as I just installed the hitch a week ago on my 2005 and did not take to the dealer to program - the trailer lights work (which I would assume would work whether the dealer did the programming or not) and the PDC seems to disable when my trailer is attached (non-brake so can't tell if braking system is functional and hard to tell whether the trailer sway control is functioning or not? What gets activated by the dealer "programming"?

Didn't you just answer your own question? 'trailer sway control'
