NBT wierd language issue

Laurent0613 · 11-02-2019, 06:27 AM

Hello everyone!

Please I need some help here with my issue.

Car is a Canadian import F30 LCI with NBT fitted 2016.
I can change the default language to all available via the NBT but for some reason, the service book / service warning remains in French, whatever the language is selected.
Do you know how to change this?
I'm pretty sure that it will solve my second problem ie. "some" service message in the instrument cluster being in French too...

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

The default language can be coded via e-sys (and probably also via other tools)

I used BimmerCode to change the default voice to British rather than American English. The Nav is much more polite now - most instructions begin with "please." There was an unintended consequence however: traffic condition reports now appear in Indonesian. Really weird!

well, I have set english, dutch, german as master.
I can definitely see that the NBT default language is changed to the selected one but the service messages remains in French.

All available languages:

Master/default language changed to Dutch

BUT only service messages in French (master being English in this example)

No experience with bimmercode, so can't really comment on using that. I always use e-sys myself.

In the last picture you say "it was working before", if that's the case, what happened?

Mocht je een keer in de buurt van Apeldoorn/Deventer zijn wil ik wel eens met je mee kijken.
