I'm based in Madison, WI and I'm willing to travel to Milwaukee and Chicago area if there is a group interest.

I may not be checking this board or PM very often so please contact me at -> bmwminicoding [at] gmail [dot] com

Wiper Operation

Rain Sensor

• Frost Warning (Chimes when below 37'F - only E46)

Lights
• Double Blink Hazard lights

• Fog lights always on with headlights (low beam, Auto)
• Fog lights on with AE DRL
• Fog Lights for Corner Lights (Fog lights will turn on for low speed turning)
• Welcome Lights on (Turn on fog, Angel Eye, low beam, rear license plate lights when unlocking the car)
• Follow Me Home Lights (Turn on low beam and break lights when trunk release button pressed once - FRM3)
• Angel Eye on full power when low/high beam turned on (No Angel Eye dimming) – Not for LED halos.
• Angel Eye as DRL instead of head lights
• Rear Tail Lights ON with DRL
• Delete Bulb Errors (Disable Cold/Warm Test after Retrofit)
• Adjust the Auto Light Sensitivity (Head lights will not turn on when it is sunny)

Trunk
• Close the trunk (tailgate) with the key FOB and button inside the cabin

*Possibility to code specific option may vary depend on the model. I'm not liable for any and all possible damage and worry not though! In 80+ that I've coded I have not had a single coding-related error.

I'm going to do it for free.

What do you mean by re-coding? Do you have some features coded already?

icuc,

Wondering if you are able to do coding with an aftermarket alarm present? My viper alarm can do start/stop, GPS locating, lock/unlock, and check my "systems" via my iPhone. Will this interfere with your coding process?

It will not interfere with any other ECUs and you will be able to code all the features.

Hit me up next time you are in Minneapolis. Otherwise I can try to get a group of owners together for a spring/summer 2013 coding session.

I'm guessing you can code other BMWs beyond X5s?
