Some coding ideas and reactions for you

Hello Matt, I had my M6 coded just after I bought it in March. Wow, am I happy! Here's what I got (and why I like it):
1. Turn signals in HUD (b/c I set my steering wheel low, obscuring the lights)
2. Radio/nav turn off when you open the door (to avoid annoying people)
3. Eliminate chimes, warning signals, all that BS
4. Seat settings remembered (ventilation, active seats)
5. Adaptive high-beam (yes, it works in the U.S. after coding!)
6. Add rear lights to "daytime running lights" (looks very cool from behind)
7. Rear-view camera operates at speed if you activate it
Drawback: weirdly, you have to push the "start" button twice to start up
The fellow I used is CodeMyCar.com, cost US$125+OBDII cable
He sends you a Chinese menu, pick what you want, same price for all or one
Items #1, #3 and #4 were worth all the money, as far as I'm concerned
