With E-Sys, at least, you can overwrite any existing color combo. Basically, you're simply tweaking the individual RGB values that underlie the predetermined list of colors.

I personally changed Bronze to Red (because Bronze is virtually indistinguishable from Orange) and Bronze + White to Pink which I then assigned to my wife's profile/key solely because it pisses her off every time she drives my car. It's working out well so far for the wheels and front lip.

How do you get the flashing brake force to work? Changed the settings but it still doesn't do it

What setting have you got it on ? Also do hazards come on when hard breaking ?

p.s. I know this isn't the best photo...
I have the 2019 F90 M5C and I have used bimmercode to code the following:-

1) Ambient Lights to have blue(top) and purple(bottom).
2) Engine Start Stop Memory to "activ"
3) Checkbox to switch on/off for the DRL
4) Disable honk when locking the doors with the engine running
5) Enable all Video Codec types
6) Enable Video in Motion (To watch movies while vehicle is on the move)
7) Disabled the forever on headlights regardless of light switch position. Now my headlights and DRL can be completely off even when engine is running.
8) Enabled last memory for air-conditioning recirculating function.
9) Chimes to Roll Royce. The chimes has been changed to the rolls royce type including the reverse and front sensors to a nicer sounding rolls royce tone.

That is all I can remember for now and will add-on when I recall more functions being coded. For bimmercode that is a restore function therefore if you have done something wrong especially in expert mode, you can restore your last coding to the previous settings.

I didn't know that if you pulled up on the trunk release button on the door and held it, it closed the trunk, without any coding. I'm amused at myself after checking that prior to coding a few other things.

Anyone know how to code Sport+ for the engine in startup? Highest I see is Sport Individual but that isn't exactly an option for the M5.

Did ASD, different ambient lighting color, startup message, lane departure.

Now just need to figure out what some of the other items are.
Are any features blocked out or grayed out or everything is available?

Sorry took quite sometime before I had the time to go get the details. Below are screenshots of how to do the light coding.

For the RaceChip GTS, what does that do to your warranty? And if it's easily reversible, does anyone here who has it physically remove it before taking their car in for service or can you leave it and it's fine? Probably an obvious question but I'm extremely green to tuning. Thanks.

Here is the link that shows all the coding options for the F90 and how to get there.

I had OBDLink MX+ BT and it was so damn slow which is similar issue with any BT adapter. I ended up going with ENET cable and Ethernet to Lightning. Connected direct from iPhone to OBD port. It's so fast, almost instantaneous after saving the changes. It's cheaper than going premium BT module.

Here is the link
