BimmerCode - popular coding settings for LCI?

So I got the recommended module and app, which ones are some of you doing for the LCI?

I think I would set use remote to close my trunk, seatbelt chime, video in motion...what else?

All warnings in addition to the chimes and ambient lighting!

I’m going to tinker with brake force display next — for safety purposes more so than aesthetics, so with activation only under the most extreme braking force option listed.

my m5 is red, so i added red ambient lighting.

uninterrupted window close if a door is opened when a passenger is closing a window

rolls royce chimes

start car with start stop deactivated - i decide when i want to use this and not the car!!

passenger mirror reverse dip to 50%

there is an option to control the exhaust flap through idrive, however i havent had chance to code this in

Are you in the UK? Otherwise, I'm wondering why this feature isn't already set to remember your last setting.

How did you manage to code it?

Exactly. Shouldn’t need coding I thought. Turned mine off at the button day 1 and have never seen it since.

Can you have your window open during coding?

The connection instructions don’t mention windows one way or another, but I would keep them closed if you’re coding anything related to window operation itself (i.e., window lifter interruption when opening a door) because it will not write properly if they are not sensed closed and you may receive warnings/codes that won’t clear without recoding or reverting to a backup (as opposed to the ones that will clear after the ECU and ignition restarts).

(I know you mentioned you got the BT adapter, I’m also assuming you have an iPhone).
