What are some of the most popular things people code?

Is there a list of popular/recommended coding to do? Going to have some done soon and want to knock it ll out now. I did a search and couldn't find a thread of recommendations sorry.

This is what I code on both of my BMWs:

Remove iDrive warning
Remove analog & digital speedometer 3mph "correction"
ASD off
Doors unlock at engine shutdown
Driver door open turns off all electronics

I remember that in previous models the correction would only apply to the speedometer but not the cruise control, is that still the case? As in if you removed that "correction" you'd show 70 mph but if you set the cruise control it would say 73 mph.

I'll add I always code for the seat to move back when the door is opened and forward when the door is closed. Saves the leather on the bolster.

Nope - it removes that "correction" factor, and when you set the cruise for 70, it reads 70.

Can't help you there...I use Carly. The basic premise is to disable this function in the appropriate module.

I know the digital speedo is a easy fix, did it correct the analog, physical speedo too?

Coded the option and found that there is in fact a discrepancy between the speedo and cruise display but it's only 1 mph. With the HUD showing 70, turning on cruise control shows a set speed of 71. Since it only shows up briefly anyway I can live with that.

As far as I recall, there wasn't a separate option to enable/disable the correction on the analog speedometer. It is no longer present on both instruments.

Yeah, I noticed that too - not sure what that's all about.

Air Conditioning off on Auto
iDrive off on door open
Mirror fold speed max (50Km/H)
Mirror angle on reverse
