Nice suprise: Hitch-zooming added after recent EGR recall software upgrade

I installed Invisihitch with OEM wiring harness/controller more than a year ago. I didn't code my car at all so no hitch zooming for sure since then. After the dealer did software upgrade per EGR recall in last oil service several months ago, I've just found that hitch-zooming is added when I hooked up my trailer recently.

Yep same for me at my last service on the 50i. Nice surprise indeed and a very useful feature. Wish I had coded it myself sooner.

I though I did something wrong when I got my car and it didn't have hitch zoom. I had always assumed that I must have deleted this when I did the coding. I guess I just never had this feature. I did enable it myself already now of course.

It's a great feature.

It's quite funny to watch people around you when you are backing up to your trailer and they don't know you have a camera. They shout increasingly loudly as they think you are going to crash into the trailer when you are just lining it up perfectly. They either think you are really good or just lucky.

Don't want to hijack the thread, but is anyone else getting hit with the standard scope/key read fee of $45. The service center I go to has never charged this in the past, but I'm being told that all service centers are enforcing the fee now. I was a bit surprised to see it on my bill and a little pissed they charge $45 to reset my cars computer for an oil change, etc.
