How do you turn off the fogs when turning?

You mean, "Cornering Lights? "

In the FRM list there is "Cornering Lights with Front Fog Lights" which will affect the cornering light function. Note that coding the FRM will reset your OB, trip information and seat memory.

I have not tried the folding mirror option. Perhaps I will to see if I can get it to work. The start engine without brake seems to be elusive for all.

Yep, got it. Mine was labeled fog lights with turn signals.

I cannot get into the CMS to rid the seatbelt warning and navigation warning. Says I do not have a good enough connection. Any tips?

What OBD2 adapter are you using? Also, are you trying to connect with the ignition on? Key in and then press the Start button without depressing the brake pedal.

This is perhaps off topic but I always leave my X running while fiddling with the diagnostics since the battery really can't offer enough current for long enough to successfully complete most desired tasks. In 8 months I've had zero issues using this method. Perhaps the problem you're having with certain modules is linked to battery charge? If not, you might also consider switching from NORMAL to ENHANCED in the settings (comms section) and also slowing the rate of transfer (there is also an available option for this) which according to the programmers has been know to improve communication in some instances.

Can you register a new battery with the iOS version?

You may have something there. Although I have not had my engine running, I do remember that there was one module that I could not connect to in the configuration that I was in. I tend to think that I did not have the ignition on which is why I wanted to check. They cold also try to do it as you suggest with the engine running. I'm sure there is a voltage cutoff at some point.

Use caution when changing the brake force display with the new update. Right now, my turn signals do not work and I have no visual or audible confirmation that the doors have unlocked or locked remotely. There is a check control fault for 'Lighting System.' I'm at the dealer right now. Let's see what they say.

Before carrying out any coding mods the app would have first made a backup of the current settings. If after the changes had been made and the problems presented, did you first try to restore the initial settings? Or did you try to revert from memory? Would be interesting to hear. Good luck all the same, no doubt the dealer will sort it out in no time.
