I figured out coding by following some great guides out there and a $15 cable off eBay. Try searching or PM me and I can send you what I used

Hey, I've been wanting to get some coding done too. A guy was recommended to me by 503motoring but he lives up in Seattle. He says he makes trips down here to PDX once he gets enough orders to make it worthwhile, so if you're interested maybe let him know and he could come down sooner. I'm still waiting myself. Here's his website: http://www.*********.com/

Well I don't know why the URL is * out, maybe to avoid sales or something? It's ********* dot com. Anyway, I've never worked with him, just going on the word of the shop...

I coded my car and a few others M owners that I met at Portland C&C. I still have the coding cable and instructions to code it yourself if you like. I'd be happy to help. The cable cost me $15 off eBay and the software came from a forum member. The only thing is that I do t have the app on my MacBook anymore cause I needed the space for more pics! So if you have a LT with windows 7 or 10, you can probably do it yourself.

Let me know.

Hey rph_gunner katchup , I got my laptop running and can help code your cars. I work M-F and usually have time on the weekends. The only caveat is that I'm an enthusiast, not a paid professional so I may not be able to code everything. Get a list of what you want and I'm sure I can help. Thank you

So I googled most popular options, and this is what my wish list looks like from it. I'm not sure how long they take or what is possible. #8, 10, 11, 14, 15, 21, 32, 33 and 40 would def be the ones I REALLY want.

3) Disable Legal Disclaimers (Startup, Cameras, Etc.)

7) Transfer Phone’s Ringtone To Vehicle

8) Disable Seat Belt Chimes (Driver and/or Passenger)

9) Disable Initial Start-Up 3 Dings Chime

10) Close Windows with KeyFob

11) Fold/Unfold Side Mirrors With KeyFob

14) Start Car Without Braking/Clutching

15) Unlock Doors When Car Is Turned Off

20) Enable Angel Eye’s As DRL’s

21) Disable Side-marker Running-Light LEDs (Still Work As Turn Signals)

22) Run High Beams & Fog Lights Simultaneously

23) Change ‘One Touch’ Lane Change Count From 3 Blinks to (4,5,6,etc)

32) Angel Eye Brightness 100% during DRL and Headlights

33) Enable Full-LED Headlights (Dazzle) (Remove De-Coding for US LED Headlights)

34) Enable Siri Voice Control from Steering Wheel

37) A/C System Remembers Last Setting

39) Enable LED Door Handles Illumination when in Reverse

40) Increase the brightness of ambiance lighting

Just curious why you chose #20 - angel eyes as DRL? Isnt this standard on all F8X cars and controllable (on/off) in idrive? Mine is on my MY16.

I did pretty much all your choices too but added Mini chimes. Its a much more soothing sound than BMW chimes.

The anti-dazzle high beams are pretty cool and trippy to watch them split around an on coming car.

Next i want to add auto close trunk (kick or keyfob) so I never have to touch the trunk and get fingerprints on it. Lol I know its not coding but will be a cool mod addition to everything else.
