Hi Tim, you have helped me a lot with every common issue on my 6-series and thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I am just curious if you know anything about programing the convertible top to close with the key fob. Thank you in advanced!
Hi Tim, hope you will be fine, and you are doing so well, i saw all your videos, and love that, i have 2007 E64, and seems like i am facing CAS module malfunction or not function at all, my key fob is not working i mean central locking and all smart functions, if you can show the where exactly this CAS is located, and how to removed, because there is no reference video for E64,
@@TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation my central lock is not working and everyone has differnet opinion, and now i am confuse between 4 modules, CAS / BCM / FRM / DIVERSITY ANTENNA and its is very costly to go through all these, could you plz guide me how to solve this, how can i check my individual modules, either they are working properly, thanks
Tim, I really enjoy your insights into all things BMW especially because I own a 2007 BMW 650i that is saphire black metallic with cream beige interior. I do have 2 questions: 1. My interior plastic parts, specifically the ones that run along the side of the interior of the car at the bottom have discolored and turned a sort of orange. You have the same color interior and was wondering if you have any suggestions to bring the color of the beige plastic back to original? 2. In my front headlight assembly, the area in which the turn signals reside have somehow collected a nasty collection of insects. Any recommendations on how to clean that area? Thanks in advance, Tim. Tom R.
Hello Tom, try IPA on a cloth for the plastic. For the headlights you need to remove the Xenon bulbs and the Halo bulb and then blast it out with an airline - it's the only easy way
Another great video Tim! Looking forward to doing some programming under your guidance. In a number of video’s you mention “gummy fledge” for the seals. Am I describing the right product? Keep up with the great content, your maintenance and ideas keep me out of mischief 😂
I have to do the side mirror folding on mines. Don’t forget to register your battery it makes it perform way better “click register new battery read that battery and set it to the current one”
For any reason when I try to code my folding mirrors on my 2007 M6 he won't work.,give me error while processing. I can fold them pushing the botton but can't code. Any suggestions?
Nice video. Does mirror dip on reverse work on drivers side Can you code coming home lights on key rather than the main beam pull after you remove key from ignition. I think your front turns won’t work as not original LED but I think LCI would work.
i have a 2010 bmw 635d Convertable. i have to bend the wing mirrors in manually, I have only just bought it and ain`t got a clue. do you think they are eclectic as in closing. Thanks sorry I`m thick and not tec savvy. Love your vids btw i`m addicted now .
Hi Tim, thanks for your videos. I have a question if it is possible to adjust the Angel eyes to make them shine brighter, I replaced the bulbs with those you recommended in previous films, but they do not shine too brightly. You look as if they shine brighter. I have one more question when starting the car, I have such a nice option that Angel eyes twinkle alternately, is it possible to set it somewhere.Regards Dave
Those Angel-Eyes are as bright as they are going to get, I tried horrendously bright LED's behind them and it made not a jot of difference, it is just the design of the light-pipes
@@TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation Thanks for the answer, mine is also the 2007 E64 Blue Lagoon. I don't mind it in general, but it could be a bit brighter. Regards Dave
i purchased carly for an E64 M6 an have changed a lot of items. Only problem is comfort close only lifts windows an not top. Im in usa an thought i read top will go up with coding in usa. Do you happen to know or where can i find answer Thanks
Hi Timm, I just watched the episode with the Carly device and thought I'd pick your brain, if you allow. I'm the proud owner of a 2008 650i cab, like yours, but mine is Monaco Blue. I've owned it since 2013 and still love the car. What happened is my wife just got the latest Ford Ranger Raptor which runs Android Auto, wirelessly, so our Spotify runs as soon as we get it and Google Maps too. I would love to have that in my car, can Android Auto be fitted in the 650? Please advise, much obliged.
@@TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation Many thanks for the reply, after a bit of searching it looks like there are many options available incl some very good chinese makes. You should give it a go so I don't have to be the Guinea Pig 😁 At the moment I'm listening to Spotify through a Bluetooth to 3.5 mm Jack adapter, the loss of sound quality is horrific.
@@Traumahawk007 this was my initial thought, but i have the retract button on the driver door controls too. Ill put it down to me being a mong, or it could be a genuine issue with my model (manufactured in 05, registered in 06)
Carly does some basic things on my E46 and E53, but folding mirrors for example doesn’t work on either of them, and I have power folding mirrors on both cars.
Hi Timm. The seller of a 645ci cabriolet told me that the car's rear window broke. Thus the roof cannot operate . The car has 185k kms in the clock. What's your take in this?
Hey Tim. I have a question to my E31 840Ci from 94. My engine doesnt start very well when its hot, means when Oil (not water) reach 90 degrees or something around that. It starts within 10 minutes perfectly, but after 10-15 minute it needs up to 10 seconds. After 8 hours its start perfectly but at the next day it needs again some seconds to start. I measured the petrol pressure and its going down within 5-10 seconds to 0 bar after switch off. I replaced the pressure control in the rail, the petrol filter and the pump. The problem still exists without change. There ist only one thing left in my opinion: The injectors. Is the result of my problem a leaking injector? Whats your opinion about that? The strange thing is, it came "over night" / exist since a 200km trip. Also my idle (600rpm) is a little bit rough. Like one cylinder doesnt ignite completely every 2-3 crankshaft rotations. And I have really cool misfires (one loud, dump explosion) when I give gas after thrust cutoff (around 2400rpm in gear 1-4 or every time in 5th gear with active torque converter bypass.
Yes, you could have an injector that is leaking, but I would suspect that there would be a strong smell of fuel at start-up if that was the case - can you smell raw fuel?
@@TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation Hard to say but I would say Yes. Some Days Ago I reved up after start-up (I love Eisenmann) for friends and there was a big fuel smell. All of us smelt a increased amount of fuel.
Similar question as j's. Will Carly recode a replacement ABS module on a 530 E39? I've just replaced mine and it needs recoding. I see there are a number of other programs, NCS Expert, SSS Program, Tool 32, ISTA. Well outside my comfort zone but I'm happy to give it a go. It's a common enough BMW problem, so has anybody done this and which program did you use? Perhaps it could be a video for Timm's BMW Repairs and Information channel, hint, hint :)
Hello Andy, no, not a chance, Carly hardly works with the E38 and E39 - but, the good news is that an ASC+T module does not need coding - I take it your E39 is pre 1998?

Thank you for this video! Does this coding works on 2018 convertible 6 series (f12)? Thank you.
It should do, but I'll let you know, I've just bought an F12!
Thank you mate... It's a lovely car, just got my one two weeks ago and I'm loving it 👍
Do you have the break flash option for when step on breaks to break the car if so can do,a video on that see how it works ?
Yes, that is a feature of the E63 and E64 - I'll give it a go!

Try doing it with the engine running
Nice video. Does mirror dip on reverse work on drivers side
Can you code coming home lights on key rather than the main beam pull after you remove key from ignition.
I think your front turns won’t work as not original LED but I think LCI would work.
I will check the next time I am doing some coding!
Is all of this still up to date, I got a 2005 bmw 645ci and and really wanna code my car with Carly to get these features on my car
Yes, all up-to-date!
there is no reverse white light option on the welcome lights?
No, they don't allow white lights as welcome lights at the rear...
@@TimmsBMWRepairsandInformation how can I program that? what hardware and software would I need to code?

If you have the comfort system installed then coding the mirrors will work if you follow the instructions.

The full closure is inhibited for the soft-top, that can only be closed by putting the metal key in the drivers door and turning

There's nothing you can do OEM, but there are some Chinese suppliers that do Android head units. It's not something I have any experience of though

I have heard that folding mirrors only works on 6 series that have the button to fold on the doorpanel. Is this true?
Good point worked on the 645 with the folding button...enabling auto closure on push on the key but will let u know with the manual mirrors on 650
my 2006 650i refuses to code the auto folding mirrors, even when using laptop hex coding. Bizzare
Yes as if you don’t have button your mirrors don’t fold
@@Traumahawk007 this was my initial thought, but i have the retract button on the driver door controls too. Ill put it down to me being a mong, or it could be a genuine issue with my model (manufactured in 05, registered in 06)
It should not be a problem coding the mirrors to fold if you have the button - make sure both KGS and CAS are coded for comfort close
What models does Carly work and code with? Or do I have to code with INPA, ISTA, or something else? (Older models e38 e39 e46). Thanks!
Hello j, Carly doesn't really work that well with the older BMW's such as the E38 and E39 - INPA works great though!
Carly does some basic things on my E46 and E53, but folding mirrors for example doesn’t work on either of them, and I have power folding mirrors on both cars.
Hi Timm. The seller of a 645ci cabriolet told me that the car's rear window broke. Thus the roof cannot operate . The car has 185k kms in the clock.
What's your take in this?
Yes, if the rear window does not drop then the soft top will not open - check that the boot (trunk) opens
