Will a dealer do coding like this?

No, but it would be nice if they could.

I'm sure a dealer could do the coding, but if they won't, how can I find a reputable place to do this in south Florida? I searched BMW coding on the web and all I see is adds from people on Craigslist, which is not very comforting.

V1 (Rich) on this forum will do it remotely. Hook up a laptop with a cable he provides, download the software, wifi connection and thats all you need. I've done it 3 times w/ him. 100% professional and capable.
