I find lots of differences in models, even the same year, all BMW. Weird.

Like the phone/radio info in the HUD. got it on the 5, not the 6 (until I code it)

It's not about the same year. It's about the production date. For example the one is produced in March, may be different from the one is produced in January.

Correct.

Contact whoever is doing the coding and ask for a list or possible options you're interested in.

Good luck!

That's STD in the 2015.

FWIW Rich saw my post here, and volunteered to do another session to turn off the lane markers in the HUD feature, no charge! It was a minor thing that I wouldn't' have bothered him with, especially as it was me who changed my mind, so I was very happily surprised by the offer. It took about 15 minutes last night, and everything is exactly as I want it now. So my hat is off to Rich. Amazing service!!!

Thanks! Blendmount and mirrortap is ordered. Is the install as easy as it looks?

10 minutes approx. Very easy.

The list of coding options is huge, and I only selected the following:

Front Seat belt chimes reminders removal.

Initial triple-gong removal.

Mirrors (un)fold automatically when (un)locking with Remote or Comfort Access.

Windows open/ close from the Remote.

Windows close from comfort access.

Opening doors won't interrupt windows rolling-up.

Enable rear tail lights on with DRL.

Activate blinking Adaptive Brake Assistant (under sudden and hard deceleration the trunk/ inner brake/ rear fog lights blink until car comes to a full stop)

Disclaimers removal.

DVD playback in motion (restricted to P otherwise)

Video files playback from the USB port in armrest compartment + playback in motion (avi, mp4, ogg, vcd and xvid files).

Turn indicators in HUD.

Lane departure in HUD.

Change ///M animation duration in Head Up Display.

Set heated seats to remember their last setting (option to code the driver or passenger's seat or both).

Lower Blind Spot Detection activation speed to 20 mph (from 40).

Set front ventilated seats to operate at a lower temp. (86 degrees by default on 3rd position, can be lowered to X degrees, usually opt for 75).

I also ordered a blendmount and mirrortap from Rich and installed it in about 10 minutes.



Quite the happy camper

I am interested as well, please PM me.

Rich coded my M6 GC and installed my radar detector.

All businesses should model their customer service and follow up after Rich !!
