X5 2004 3.0D Aux Heater activation
I have been reading a bit about the 3.0D-version of the X5 should have the heater already mounted in the car, but only the Aux Ventilation activated. Some say its possible to enable the Aux Heater with a software update.. Is this possible, and if so, how?

Yes, it can be coded. So dealer or someone with BMW coding tools can do it. BMW X5 heater usually comes without water pump so X5 electrical water pump has to be coded to work with the heater.

Are we talking about the webasto heater here?:)

It has been very useful during last few weeks here in Finland. Just this morning heated the engine and cabin from -27 deg C before starting up :thumbup:. |

If a 3.0D is equipped with this as standard,it will already be coded and activated and can simply be turned it can be turned on/programmed on the sat-nav or by supplied the remote control. |

Yeah, all BMW dealers around refuse to activate this. They say I have to add all tubes in the car, and its not possible to do it any other way. Of course this is $2000 to do. Any suggestions how to convince the shops to do this the cheap way?

I heard that BMW dealers over here doesn't want make that kind of coding either. Luckily we have quite active BMW enthuastics community here in Finland and individuals with coding capability are quite easy to find. You might want to check from some of your local BMW car forums. |
