You should be able to code it in

So it's possible the dealership just didn't want to code it when I asked?

An easy way to find if your car has Launch Control is to look for it in the onboard iDrive Manual. Simply do a search in the manual, if it comes up you have it. If nothing is found, you do not. Checked mine yesterday, my car (2015 650iX Gran Coupe) has it. Have not tried it yet.

It can be coded in regardless of the manual. I don't think when someone codes in Launch Control they also code in the manual for it. I had my launch control coded in but don't have an I-drive manual for it.
