Originally on mine they were all set to high and I turned them up to very high, but I hadn't noticed my angel eyes getting dimmer with the lights on. But there is one particular option that is angel eyes with lights on. My mate took some pictures, I will try and get them uploaded

Col,

That looks ideal mate. Hopefully it will work with the LCI LED corona rings too! As long as the lite version of the app works ok with my wifi adapter ill be buying the real app and will give it a go. Appreciate your help bud

I'm going to order their adaptor I think, they I can get into every module.
Nearly £45 with postage though!

They tend to reply to enquiries within about 48 hours. I asked about raising the roof from the fob, they said it doesn't work on every car. I think it depends on which FRM module you have. But they are working on it.
You can request more options that are not listed on there yet

Ive bought the same adapter as you Col, so hopefully that will allow me to edit the lights modules.

The one I have definitely lets you into the light module (FRM). Also let's you into the CAS (windows, mirrors etc) and the one for the cluster/dials which is called KOMBI (digital speed is in this one)

I have a 335i which says March 2007 on the V5. If my car is compatible can I expect all of the above mentioned like folding mirrors, even though they arnt at the moment? Trying to follow this thread but it all seems a bit out of my comfort zone haha

Can you screw anything up on the car using their kit/app or is it totally foolproof to use?

If it was registered in March then it might have an earlier build date. I'm not 100% sure about what changed around 03/07

If you punch the last 7 digits of your VIN into this website then it will give you your production date
http://www.bmwarchive.org/vin/bmw-vin-decoder.html

My production date was just over a month before the car was registered.

Where abouts in the country are you?

foolproof pretty much,it creates a backup before it allows you to code

Well my adapter turned up today. Plugged it in made a connection. Turned the engine on just to see what it was doing. The engine turned off randomly, fired it backup and started the diagnostics. It turned off again and gave a dsc error!!!

I pulled the module out and started the engine and the error had cleared. Have I done anything wrong or is the module fubar? I was using the free version as a test

So I tried mine today too.

11/09 build

Digital speedo works
Permanent speedo lighting is active but doesn't work

My airbag light won't go off, got ':SBE- type Passenger / SBE Type passenger BMW 9400"

Anyone know what that fault is? These are the same seats that I've just changed the covers on, so not sure what could be wrong!

Murphyslaw I have no idea what's happening there ,jj0063,must be a hardware issue if the code will not clear ,and the only coding that has not worked on mine (2008 335d) is the push start without brake ,I rarely use my car and its off road in a garage most of the time and every now and then I like to lean in and startbtge car to warm the engine and get the oil flowing,by having to press the brake means I have to get in etc ,wanted to make life easier but that is not coding ,,never mind

I've never tried it with the engine off, always with the engine running. Not sure if that will have made a difference or not though.
The free version won't let you change anything, so I can't see it causing any problems.

Not sure mate, I've only used it for coding, I haven't tried to clear any fault codes. If they are the same seats then in theory it should be ok, but BMW do like to complicate things!

just tried plugging it in after starting the engine and all seemed good. Sent the email to see if they will bring up the fault code for me before I buy the full thing!
