so the M6 doesn't have RFT? I wanna know more than my dealer when I settle up with them next week, is there a part # on the tire itself, or just common knowledge ?


Im up for getting some of these locked features, Ill be hitting this guy up myself. If its something that can be coded thats already a feature built into the car, no way BMW can give you grief over it.

None of current M Cars (M3/M4/M5/M6) are coming with RFT because of weight saving. I know you may check the BMWNA website and it says RFT. but it's WRONG! Like other wrong (incorrect) information over there such as 0-60 times for M5/M6

It's not that simple, you also need to be very familiar with the software. You can meess something up and then when you bring it in they will know you tried to get into the software. I would leave it to people that have experience with it and have been successful. You can email the guy in the link from page 1 and have him remotely code the car for you.

It will vary based on location because he has to drive to you or if you go to his area he will discount. Hit him up and get a price, I don't give out those details on an open forum. Nothing someone with a 6 series can't afford

Angel Eyes don't dim with headlights on
Fog lights on with high beams
DVD in motion.
Key FOB to fold mirrors.
Disable I DRIVE disclaimer.
A/C & ventilation to stay off when you powered it off last time
Close Windows/sunroof with Keyfob.
Opening doors will not interrupt windows.
Temperature & PSI to tire monitor screen

I got the guys info from this CL ad: http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/aos/4734090727.html Cool guy, he gave me a good price and even drove out to meet me at my office.


how long did it take to code it? and how much did it cost you? I have 2012 650 without M package would it work?

tahnks

I do not know for sure if the 2012 has the trans that is capable of activating LC but I'm sure there are a lot of other features he can unlock for you. There is a link in post 7, hit up the guy and he will work you a deal with you.

You talk to him and he will give you a price based on what you want to do and how far he has to drive or if you meet up with him. You have his contact info from the link, hit him up.

Yeah the procedure is that the car has to be fully warmed up and then sport+, foot on the brake hard, gas pedal to the ground past the kickdown click and a flag will appear that are in my pictures. I did read that it was not added until 2013+, again i don't know 100%
