When I add the 5 digits I come up with 35 and when I enter it it’s not giving me the option to see other displays like coolant and oil temp it just goes back to the unlock option like the code 35 is incorrect even though that’s the number when the 5 digits are added. Doesn’t matter it the car is on or off no luck
The tank portion. That’s fuel pump resistance this is how bmw diagnoses with out an obs tool as obs tool does not check resistance of components to see if there are shorts in electrical if there’s no issue with fuel delivery.
@@SimpleCarGuy I honestly didn’t know how bmw got access you gave me the key. All I knew is from talking with some mechanics while I worked for big o tires told me about secret menu but he himself didn’t know how to access as it was not a bmw dealer or shop. One of those things learned as a bmw certified mechanic.
Hi. What does conv. Index xxxxxxkm/h stands for? Does anybody know? Is it the mileage of the car? Or something completely different? Because my numbers under “identification” and speedometer dont match? Can somebody check on theirs? :) thank’s
@@F10Joosbi its smt completely different than mileage , every 2014/2015 has the same numbers with conv.index, but its a good way to stress somebody out 😂
I can’t get to this menu , do I have to press the start button once ? Or have it completely off ? I Holden butting for many seconds and nothing pls help
My f10. 2.0ltr diesel lately shows on dashboard "fan defective" but goes off then randomly pops up again every now and again. Have taken it to garage but no fault can be read with ICU since it just disappears and doesn't stay registered.
Is that BC-0 showing the real mileage of the car? Because in my country, many imported cars from Japan and the UK, the mileage has been tempered to make it lower.
It’s supposed to show the real mileage. Of course, if some is tempering the mileage, they might be able to modify this as well. I don’t really know on what level they modify it.
this hidden menu it not work on my f10 535i i have end test st option 4, identification jumps to 10, input the sum of the last 7 vin and nothing happens
That’s your MPG and when it goes to blue, that means it’s charging the battery. Normally, if the battery does not need to be charged it will idle the pulley and not use engine energy to spin the alternator.
Hey just curious, i just bought a 2012 535i xdrive and the red bar to the left displayed under the miles left on the range does not fill up completely even when I fill it up completely with gas. It only stays at 343 miles when the car is filled up but it tick marks show up to 500 miles. Do you know why this could be happening? Do I just need a reset some where?
Funny enough you mention this, it bugged me when I first got the car as I get the same thing. However, I've noticed that when I fill up when it's cold (fuel is more dense) it fills up all the way to the edge and when it's hot, it will only go to 2-3 marks off from the full. Not really sure what is going on, but I believe it is normal.
So I changed my battery, they told me I need to register it too. I spend $250 on the battery and now they want $175 to “register “ the battery... would resetting software do? Or do I really HAVE TO GO , to the dealer and spend that $175
You have to register the battery. Resetting the computer won’t do anything. If you don’t register, the car will overcharge your new battery and kill it in under a year. Good news is that you can buy Autel AP200: amzn.to/2Sr8lOd for $50-60 and do it yourself. I have a video on how to use this device for programming injectors, but it works just a well on batteries
@@SimpleCarGuy I changed my sensor and it’s still reads coolant level low even though my temperature and everything is fine the display still read that I thought you could do a manual reset through the unlocked menu

Can u display the menu while driving ?
You can have it opened, but I’m not sure if you can change anything while driving.
@@SimpleCarGuy Do you know what the maximum coolant temp should be for a 2011 535i? Thanks

thank you explaining the part of ( adding the last 5 digits of the vin ) !!! Thsank you very much
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching.

Hi please maximum coolant temp ???
In the video, The tank number is not really correct one is over 600, do you have any issue with your fuel gauge? just curious
What should my temp read at under normal conditions mine is at 250F

@@ErchinSmail okay because I got mine last Saturday and was wondering if I got ripped off 😂
You guys are amazing!
Oooohhh🤦🏻♀️🤦🏽🤦♂️I thought you said add "SOME" of our last 5 of vin 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏿♀️🤷
Didn’t work on my 2014 F07 530d GT. Holding the button down for 10-15 secs does nothing. 😢
I can’t get to this menu , do I have to press the start button once ? Or have it completely off ? I Holden butting for many seconds and nothing pls help
do you have any idea if i changed the used CIC then Side view fault and back side camera not working can we reset software?
Hi guys is alright if my M235i f22 has temperatures between 106-110°C at the cooling system and the oil to be between 116-119°C. Thanks in advance!
How do you get that menu at the bottom where it show that battery.vThat blue thing?
That's not something you can program. It's part of the cluster that changes depending on your drive mode.
Hey if my number 7 menu isn’t showing does that mean my temperature sensor is broken?
What model BMW do you have? If the temp sensor wasn't working, you'd get a -212f or something crazy like.
How do I select yes to perform system test? I long press the odometer reset button and it goes back to previous menu if I short press it does nothing
You just have to press the odometer button for a second (but not long enough for it to go back)
Hi! I have question... Is it normal 99° coolant temp BMW F10 diesel
Mine is the same and it seems fine. 535d f10
So EVERY STEP here must be done with engine running?
No, just the ignition on
My f10. 2.0ltr diesel lately shows on dashboard "fan defective" but goes off then randomly pops up again every now and again. Have taken it to garage but no fault can be read with ICU since it just disappears and doesn't stay registered.
Don't know much about the diesels, but have they checked the actual fan to see if it's running properly once the car is warmed up?
Is that BC-0 showing the real mileage of the car? Because in my country, many imported cars from Japan and the UK, the mileage has been tempered to make it lower.
It’s supposed to show the real mileage. Of course, if some is tempering the mileage, they might be able to modify this as well. I don’t really know on what level they modify it.
It only shows the mileage since the last trip reset, not the full mileage of the car
Is This permant all the time or if off the engine and on the engine again This option gone?
This will reset when you turn off the car.
this hidden menu it not work on my f10 535i i have end test st option 4, identification jumps to 10, input the sum of the last 7 vin and nothing happens
It’s the last 5 digits of you vin added together. Try that.
i don’t understand how you ad last 5 digits together can you explain better please
@@sonymata6500if the last 5 digits are 77777 on your VIN add that up it would be 35 for example
Please I just watched this video, how do I know the code to unlock,
The code is the last 5 digits of your VIN added together.
Please I have a 550igt 2010, how can I change the map to another country
What is the red indicator under the p ' it goes 0. 20. 40. Then to a blue battery
That’s your MPG and when it goes to blue, that means it’s charging the battery. Normally, if the battery does not need to be charged it will idle the pulley and not use engine energy to spin the alternator.
Hello ,when i walk in a used car sales ,when i check it with this hidden menu,they show some error codes but it show 0 ( active)? WHAT ITS MENAS ?TQ
I'm not sure what you mean exactly. For which option does it show 0?
can it be seen in Farenheit?
Not that I know of.

@@SimpleCarGuy okay thank you! i'm going to get it checked out, ill keep you in the loop!
I heard that this is based on on your driving style.
Is there a way to keep this menu all the time , once you switch off you need to unlock again . I want to see the coolant temp all the time
There isn’t unfortunately, you’d have to get an obd reader for that
Please how did you unlock
@@madelineirizarry5836 add the last 5 digits in your vin number and the result is the code
How do you find your vehicle number?
It’s the last 5 digits of your vin added together. You can find your vin under the windshield as well as on the door sill
So I changed my battery, they told me I need to register it too. I spend $250 on the battery and now they want $175 to “register “ the battery... would resetting software do? Or do I really HAVE TO GO , to the dealer and spend that $175
