That’s awesome, on my other car which is a 2021 Volvo S 60 I can fold in the mirrors at any speed, which is really nice for Glare, on my F 56 mini Cooper I want to be able to do that, is it possible to do it at any speed?
Something that I do to fold my mirrors is to just hold the lock button for 3-4 seconds, that'll close any windows that might still be up and will fold your mirrors! Plus, they will automatically unfold when you unlock the car. Just a small trick that doesn't require any coding in case someone didn't know.
instead of the bluetooth OBD adapter, you can use a lightning to ethernet adapter and use the BM3 ENET cable. Bimmercode read and write will be instantaneous
These mechanisms should be tested and proved over thousands cycles. My old man's M340I was factory set to fold on locking. My 335d wasn't... Bummercode cam fix that!
I like the folding mirrors because it prevents people from running into them, or scraping them with their car doors (yep that happened to me before, luckily it was just paint transfer and it was removed easily)
Dope content. I haven't even bought my 3 series yet but I'm set on getting it in a couple of years. So I'll refer to these videos when I get to that point.
Brill. Coded a few bits today on my F36 435d. Brake force flash was already on from factory. Coded the rear DRL looks great as LCI. Folding mirror speed threshold upped a bit so I can fold when going a bit faster. Also M performance logo on the dash :)
Can you make a video on how to code Easy entry/exit? This is the feature where the driver seat slides backwards when you turn off the car making it easier to get out of the car.
Seats are manual. I had this feature on my Genesis. The Genesis was very low and it was good that the seat moved back. The I3 is much higher and I don't miss the feature. I'm 88 and I find the I3 easy to enter and exit.
Fyi, you do have fog lights. They are integrated into your LCI taillights but they are not enabled for US models (don’t remember the reason). The Euro models have them. If you look at your headlight controls to the bottom left of your steering wheel there are two blanks. These would be the Fog On/Off switch. There is a comprehensive step by step to on Bimmerpost on how to enable the fog lights and code it in so the buttons work when you get the Euro headlight switch (not cheap 😬). I plan on doing this in the near future.
There is also a safety aspect with DRL lights not turning on in the back. The front ones are very strong on many cars and people drive with them at night not realizing the back of the car is dark.
On the "Auto start/stop" you said to put it on "Active" but you have the "Auto start stop function off by default" switched to "Not Active". Why's that? Which one should it be on if we don't want to use it all? Thanks.
He set the memory to active and the off by default to not active, because with the memory enabled it will never turn back on once you turn it off. You can use off by default too, but if you turn memory on it will never turn back on once turned off. Hope that helps. I don't have bimmercode yet, but for instance, my F36 never turned auto start/stop back on once I turned it off when I got the car last year. On the other hand, my mom has an X2 which turns the auto start/stop back on every time the car is started. My bluetooth scantool is on the way right now, and I plan on fixing that for her once I receive it.
My question is, is there any diference between this adapter and the OBDLink CX (the one recommended for BimmerCode)? Will it provide more options for coding??
Cool thanks for showing those features. Is there a way to unlock all the doors when turning off the car? Would be so much more convenient instead of the double pull or having to press the center button.
hey. i just wanted to ask why bmw wouldn’t install folding mirrors anyway when you lock the car? wonder why you’d have to use bimmer to code it in. Also will folding mirrors work on my BMW 118i 2018 if i purchase bimmercode? thanks
Great Video !! After some coding today my real time MPG display was all over the place. I was using bimmercode with a veepeak reader to do simple stuff like mirrors fold when locked etc. If you have ever seen this or know how to fix it please let me know !
Does Bimmercode show internal transmission termperature so you can do the second part of a transmission fluid change and actually KNOW you are in the correct range?
The only things that can be coded are those that BMW built into the car and has settings for. Will coding void my warranty? No, feature coding will not void your warranty. These are options that your car already has but were not enabled from the factory.
Can you just folder the mirrors in a F36 even you don’t have this option as standard?. I mean, you don’t need to have the previous electrical installation on it to activate it?
Sir..i just got the aftermarket headlights for the bmw e60..led works but not the main bulb...my original lights works fine..also i have a adaptive code..
Hi! I actually bought an oem xenon headlight for my e87 and just wanted to ask if making the LED part on active so the car will not run on 55w for the normal halogen? Will it help? Cause i also don’t want the xenon and angle eyes to flicker. Thanks in advance!
You look and sound like a guy I used to know like 20years ago in Milwaukee. Found your channel looking for info on learning bimmercode for a car im picking up. Subcribed
Hi, Great video, just a quick question, with the folding mirror function.. does this work for all BMW models or does any other work need carrying out? I have an F30 which has electric mirrors and thats about it.
No... the premium package is usually needed... if you have ele tric seats,.your pretty much guaranteed to have electric mirrors... I dont.. I opted for the technology and Angel eyes...
Hey man! I just came across your channel! I noticed you had white lights mixed with orange on your Speed Gauges etc on the instrument cluster. Did you code that or did that come with the car? Thanks!
I had an Audi that allows me to deactivates the DRLs if my handbrake was active (with VCDS coding). I really like that option for the moment when you're at the streets and need the car turned on but want to be hidden. I live in Brazil so we're always looking at the streets to see if some stranger is coming (2 guys on a motorcycle).
I tried to code off the US side markers on a 2017 F15 X5 and it wouldnt work because the F15 has a separate LED chips on each headlight separate from the turn signal bulb.
Great video, Jon. I assumed this would be a list of codes for the M2 but most of these apply to all modern (F-G) BMWs. Quick question, will you leave your front turn signals amber (to match your mirrors’ sequential signals)? I swapped all my lights for 6k LED except for the sequentials...I didn’t realize those were available in white until way after I swapped them.
I have a question for you and i am not sure if you have already answered this question, I cant find a good app to use, what app are you using I have a 2016 F32 , THANKS in advance
Thanks for the great video, but I don’t know if you could help me with this that I’m kinda frustrated with the Veepeak OBD adapter, I tried coding my 7 series g11/g12 which most the codings are not available on BimmerCode because of the adapter such as “This control unit is not accessible with this used OBD adapter” .. Even with the Headunit, it says something like its not original state .. Thank you in advance.

Hey, great vid. Any chance you can show us how to get gear numbers on D Driving your car. It lets you see it when you put it on sport mode but I want it on Drive mode. Thank. 👍🏻
Can you make the volume of turn signal quieter using Bemmercode? When I turn on a hazard of my Z4 E89, it became silent 8 min later. So I guessed the sound of turn signals came from a speaker in the case of BMW, although it comes from a relay switch of turn signal in a general case.
Thought I was in the clear, but went to the garage only to find that the car was off but the LED fog lights were faint and flickering. I guess recoding didn’t work. I don’t have the voltage section you described in your video, I only have a section that says LED conversion that I checked active. Any suggestions would be great
Hi thanks for this great video. Quick question regarding the LED headlights retrofit, The basic process is to swap the headlights and code with the bimmercode options you mentioned?. Or anything else is required?, thanks

Is there a way to turn off the ventilation completely to prevent battery drain? I once had my car at a shop for tinting windows and when I started up my car after picking it up the display was completely off. I have not figured out how they did that.
I coded my mirrors to fold in above 120 mph. Cause, you know, drag.

Fold your mirrors whilst parking adds 50bhp. Facts
Best reason to fold the mirrors is that I can tell at a glance whether the I3 is locked.

Re: active folding mirrors is a visual way to see the car is locked as you walk away or look out the window!
I rely on this too
Good point
is there any risk of them starting to have issues over time with them being excessively folded in and out? i have an e92
These mechanisms should be tested and proved over thousands cycles. My old man's M340I was factory set to fold on locking. My 335d wasn't... Bummercode cam fix that!
Exactly. That's literally the only reason I coded mine for that

It shouldn't because you could have most of these options coded at a dealership... For a cost of course.

Rear fog lights. Did it it works. You have to shave off three clips that are holding the button down from working. Then code it in expert mode.
What about the one touch turn signal frequency from 3 to 5?? They took this out a while ago and I don’t know why😭😭
There is also a safety aspect with DRL lights not turning on in the back. The front ones are very strong on many cars and people drive with them at night not realizing the back of the car is dark.
