Great, shoutout from Norway! Got my iX3 last monday and the H/K is underwhelming to say the least coming from the Mercedes EQE "Burmester". Can't wait to do this 🎉
Absolutely love the video! I bought the Kies WiFi unit based on your recommendation... Thanks, as always... Just one point, in Bimmercode, "Kies" doesn't show up... select the top one (ENET CABLE)... Once you set it once it seems to stay in there... Took me 5 min total to code in my Active sound and the B&W sound... including figuring it out lol. Crazy fast. Thanks again bro... see ya soon.
Did you have a network cable and a network to lightning adapter when coding? It looked like your phone was connected to something in the video. Or was this all done via Wifi?
I have 2 questions: 1) When done coding, to get out of diagnostic mode, do you turn off the car or just hit the start/stop button? 2) Coding for the sound system, do you retain the stock sound equalizer??? Great vid as always!
Hi.. I've been in the bimmercode app for my 2016 bmw x5 with the HK system, and the only option I have is the amplifier code. Is this the only option in the system to make the audio louder? I can select thru model ranges (im assuming they are car models cuz mine was defaulted to F15).
Awesome video! I’m awaiting my Kies in the mail. In the meantime, does anybody know how to code this via Esys, lol I don’t want to wait to use Bimmercode.
hey! question. Can these sound files added to a car with a B&W sound system and not a Harmon Kardon? If so, do you know how or where that info can be found?
@@Snappycrix all you have to do is hit set up by your shifter, set up the sport settings and hold down M1 or M2. No need to code it is designed to work that way from the factory
@@Snappycrix these is an option for it to do that also… I am trying to remember what button to check for that. You can get it to change the cluster also without coding
Hello friend. I were wondering. I got a 2012 f20 118 bmw, with basic sound system (lower than hifi) so I uppgradet to focal speakers (for doors and I added tweeters to the doors) will thiese settings from bimmercode make more improvement or its a waste of time? Thanks!
@@WhatsyourForte I work at BMW, the car isn’t mean to that watts and it ruins your amp and messes with your whole electrical system, burns out your speakers prematurely. Revert asap
Just coded these sound profiles and they're incredible. Thanks for the tutorial!
Glad you like them!

Glad you liked it.
a bit different car class... but yes... from what I've heard Burmester in merc and Bowers & Wilkins in Volvo are class of their own.

Good info David, thanjs
I've got the vgate WiFi adapter one but can't seem to get any Internet connection as I'm trying to do it from my phone don't seem to understand
i tried this on a non harman/kardon car. the bass is insane but other than that it's the same
Niceee
Mine is the 'hifi' system in my 2024 G42. I'm going to do this in a couple days. Really hope it bumps up the bass!

Thanks really enjoy coding info!
Well done man! Filming mine for this today too.. *laugh* well done!
Thanks man
Great video
Will have to get the kies adapter
Yeah it is super fast
Very nice vehicle sir :-). Nice video too - did you stick with the B&W or revert? I guess you have stock HK speakers also?
Could you make an updated video for the g80, and flashtuning? I’m new to the bimmer gang and would love a good informational vid! 💪🏾🤞🏾
Great video!
Thanks
I have 2 questions:
1) When done coding, to get out of diagnostic mode, do you turn off the car or just hit the start/stop button?
2) Coding for the sound system, do you retain the stock sound equalizer???
Great vid as always!
Just got the start stop button to leave the mode. Yes I retained all of my EQ settings.
@@WhatsyourForte Thank You very much!!!!!
I have a question, did you have iDrive LOGIC 7 Surround in the settings before coding? And you have Harman Kardon speakers?
for asd i thought you have to pull the activation code and deactivate it from there
Thanks for sharing the video. Qq: Is the Advanced Crash Safety Module working using your new Kies Wifi adapter? Thanks in advance!
I will double check today
Nice video like always bro. I have a 2007 m6, does it work with that car only the newer cars.
I would think newer cars as they just started putting the bowers and Wilkins profiles in the newer BMWs
@@WhatsyourForte thanks bro. Keep the videos coming

Is this kies Audi adapter any different than the veepeak you used to use?
I’m getting bm3 and bimmercode for the F8X and have the veepeak on order
Yes it is a little faster and you can use this adapter with BimmerCode and BM3. No need to switch out
Is it safe to program the 2023 BMW 3 series with Idrive 8 ???
Yes it is.
Awesome video! I’m awaiting my Kies in the mail. In the meantime, does anybody know how to code this via Esys, lol I don’t want to wait to use Bimmercode.
Will this work with a 2022 m440i?
hey! question. Can these sound files added to a car with a B&W sound system and not a Harmon Kardon? If so, do you know how or where that info can be found?
I am not 100% sure TBH
What year is yours? Mine Is a 2016 bmw 420i with HK will this be able to fit in?
This is a 2019… they did not offer that option in 2016
Damn I haven’t even used the one I got off your link yet lol
Hahaha
Hey, so when you coded off the Active sound, did you stay off? I have heard it turns itself back on?
Yeah I have heard that also. I am working on a video on this subject
@What's your Forte ? would you recommend still codding it off then or wait for this video lol
@@WhatsyourForte hey did it end up staying off ??
I activated B&O on my 2015 BMW with Harmon Kardon. Is it possible to activate Bowers and Wilkins on it?
Maybe I am not sure if BimmerCode has that option on that model
What do these sound profiles do exactly?
Can i Code it for the 440i f36 harman kardon?
What’s your favorite sound setting so far ?
If I am listening to hip hop it is on stage. It has more bass and treble. Everything else studio is fine.
Does the ECU need to be unlocked for this to work??
No
Just tried this, no material difference except it's very loud.
Loved the video and the song you were playing. Do you by chance know the name of that song?
Can you program m1/m2 buttons to automatically switch to sports mode?
@@Snappycrix yes you can program them to change throttle response, suspension and steering feel
@@WhatsyourForte can you tell me the settings to look into in bimmercode? I have 2024 bmw m3 competition xdrive.
@@Snappycrix all you have to do is hit set up by your shifter, set up the sport settings and hold down M1 or M2. No need to code it is designed to work that way from the factory
@WhatsyourForte yes I know that. But it doesn't change the Guage cluster to sports mode automatically.
@@Snappycrix these is an option for it to do that also… I am trying to remember what button to check for that. You can get it to change the cluster also without coding
Does it actually make a difference ? Like Louder and sound quality wise ?
Yes it does. It also changed how the music is delivered through the speakers

👍🏿
I know this works on the m3 but I recently traded it in for the m5 and I’m wondering if it will work the same
F90 m5? It should
@@garrettgriggs9368 not fully
Doesn’t have the option to change the sourround sound intensity which was a major difference
@@JordanAlon1 May depend on what version of iDrive you have. I think 2023 F90s come with iDrive 8
Active sound design off does what?
Turns off the fake engine noise
You need to turn that bass up! 😂 #concernedbasshead
Hahaha I wanted to pure sound for the video
😱now i got to cancel my OBDLink cx order.
Haha
Don’t do this, ruins your speakers
How?
