Coding with Ben @ RG

Ben@RG helped me out with a remote coding session today. Did all of the standard stuff like headlights and such. Additionally added some fun interior lighting. I think my new favorite is the M colors. Thanks for the patience and the help! If you guys want to unlock some fun customizations, hit Ben up!

Check out what he added as well as the original orange, blue, green and lilac:

+1 for Ben!

Do you lose coding if the dealer updates the ecu on a service visit?

From my understanding you do lose your coding when they perform updates as it resets the values back to what the default is for your region.

It shouldn't effect warranty - it is simply enabling features that your car has, but that vary by region.

Here is the list of options I received from Ben prior to coding. Hopefully he doesn't mind that I post it.
