My experience having my car coded remotely
I am not an advertiser for Mike B. This is my experience.
He coded my M3 when I was in Switzerland and he was in California (9 hours time difference so we did it late on a Saturday evening my time, Saturday morning his time).
No matter how you do it, you need a cable that goes from the onboard computer to a USB port on a laptop (PC or a Mac running a windows emulator when I did it).
Mike provided the software - in my case a very long download, but sometimes on a USB stick.
Part of the s/w was "team viewer". Across my wifi network he used it to take control of my laptop (in my case an i3 machine that I rarely use). There he launched his coding s/W.
We spoke over the phone (Skype) during the process to see how it was responding. Some of my mods were not usual as my car was Canadian spec and I needed to have the radio frequencies changed so that I could receive all european stations.
In all it was painless and worked very well. I am ordering the F series cable and services today.
PM me if you want Mike's contact details.
