▀▄ eas | DIY: GTS Coding Display

Had a M4 GTS recently for some R&D and was able to take a peek at some coding options during downtime, here's one that everyone should like and only take a few minutes.

Coding will replace the M3/M4 logo with the GTS logo upon startup:



KOMBI Module
KOMBI ->BMW_Logo - wert = 0C

For those local to our facility, we can include this in our standard coding packages.

Enjoy.

Just for fun. Always cool to see what's hiding in our cars.

Soon, now that we have a basis for verification - we're testing on a couple of local M4s now.

KOMBI should be the same, give it a try and follow up.

Any idea what version of FW is needed to code any of this GTS stuff? As in I'm assuming this option isn't there on 2015 models that have never had modules updated.

No updating needed for this.

Picture is from our MY15 M4, KOMBI has never been updated since delivery.
