I can absolutely do this remotely ... but I hear Ponce is nice in August!

You will need to download some software ahead of time & get an Ethernet to OBD-II Cable

E-Mail me and I'll send you the links you need ... *************************

Thanks, Will do. Ponce is nice but that's like 90 min from San Juan, I live in a town that's about 25 min from San Juan. I hope to be working with you soon!

Is it wishful thinking - there will be an option code to disable the auto rev matching on downshift in Efficient and Sport modes with 6MT?

It would be cool to be able to turn that off completely using coding.

Doubtful ... That kind of thing is programmed into the TCU ... Unless you know how to read/write the programming code it will not be possible

Hey Pillpusher - saw somewhere I do not mimed recall that thee is a code to alter the speed limits that allow open/close of the convertible top - is this correct? If so, does it remove the limit completely (obviously potentially dangerous!) - curious (and of course referring to the pref gen as we do not have the latest coding for the M4)?

Yes, through coding we can enable the following which is a PART of the EBT Option for $500

1. Bluetooth Audio Streaming from Cell Phone Paired to car
2. Text & E-Mail functionality in BMW Office in iDrive

you will be missing the following:
A. Pre-Wiring to center console for phone cradle
B. 2nd Bluetooth Telephone microphone in headliner (passenger side)

So with xenon you were able to disable it? Had that on my e93 and loved the way it looked at night.

I am getting my F80 tomorrow or Friday. How long do you think we need to link you to my car and do some coding. Have a fairly full weekend and work sucks right now.

i need approx 1 hour dedicated to the car ... the more we chat / i show you while we are working ... obviously the longer it will take ... I don't mind showing you what to do so you learn .. but if all you want to do is give me a list of things you want coded and put me to work ... i can get it done within 1 hour's time or less depending on how much stuff you want changed

Pillpusher, when my car is here and when you have time to help me code my car, would you mind if I record the coding process so I could review it later?

Ordered my cable! Bummed to hear you can't do the corner LEDs on the led package. That was one of the main things I wanted.
