Guys,
Can I kindly request all of you, who CAN code to put your name with your coverage areas here, so our forum fellow members can benefit from your coding abilities. About charges, I am sure that you will be charging nominal fees if to help forum members.

I will start with myself.

makkan00
can cover Essex, London, and West Kent.
I can do followings;

Flashing Modules
1- Alpina Transmission Flash for 335i
only if you have N54 engine and built is 03/07 and onward
2- Alpina Engine Flash for 320D
only if its pre 03/07 with dpf
3- Security update on all 3 / 1 series (may extend to other series).
useful for 2005-2007 owners who are excluded from dealers list
4- ELV toruble shooting / Steering wheel lock error
5- Updating any module.

Retrofits / Major codings:
-LCI tail lights retrofitting coding
-Xenon Retrofitting coding
-Hi-Fi coding of BMW head unit (stereo)
-Passenger side occupancy sensor trouble shooting
-FRM2/3 retrofitted to cars with FRM1
-CIC DVD playing when driving (for test purpose and off road driving only)
-6MT (Manual transmission display) on manual cars only with N54 engines only (2006-08 models)
-Dension Gateway / ipod kit coding
-L7 head unit coding to retrofit L7 amp
-Increase brightness of DRLs and Keep them constantly bright (no dimming on parking lights / dipped headlights)
- Heating Seats retrofit coding
- Retrofit Head unit with USB / BT / DAB

Increase Security of your BMW
-Add Chirp sound on locking / unlocking
-Add Visual sign (signal light blinks one time) when you lock your car.
These two helps to make sure that you locked your car. Somebody may have a signal jammer and if you do not hear locking chrip sound or turning signal light going, that means somebody is in the vicinity.
-Increase volume of your OEM security Alarm
-Add High beam flashing with your security alarm (park the car directing your windows of home and if alarm triggered, it will flash high beams to your windows)

Other codings:
-Add digital speed on speedometer
-Add instant mpg on speedometer (M sports car only)
-Fog light on with welcome light
-Increase the tilt of passenger mirror when reversing
-Wipers return to starting position if car is turned off
-Delete rear number plate LED errors.
-Mirrors folded with key fob
-Windows down with key fob
-Windows not interrupted when doors are opened
-DRLs on all the time on pre-LCI car depending on your light module
-Fog light delete for performance bumper
-Disable seat belt reminder / chime
-Windows switch working for one minute after switching off your car
-Central locking / unlocking button functional without key in ignition
- Add panic alarm on your remote
- Add speed warning on your speedometer if you are over 70 (I have activated it and it helps me to avoid over speeding)
- Brake Force Display

Hardware work done
Change the LED of your speedometer to white (M3 ones).
Help with sound system installation (Example here)(Example 2)
Addition of media box to CCC
Alpine kit Retrofit
Fully electric / Heated seats with memory retrofit

It can be done on your car. Photos here
PM is very handy for rest of details.

This is great as coding is becoming more and more useful even when just swapping parts. When my father swapped a faulty sunroof switch/module that had to be coded!

I shall be looking for hi-fi coding in the nearish future

Makkan ,being as you've being playing around with the audio sides of things, is there away to enable the L7 equaliser??? Or is this something that the L7 amp deals with? I'm guessing the latter

I will look into this mate. I am sure that HU can be coded to L7 settings but you will require amplifier.
I will get back to you on this.

no worries mate.

[makkan00]

CODERS, can I kindly request you guys to submit your details here.
I am getting many pms where people want to get their cars coded out of my coverage area.

Kindly come forward and put your details here.

Was going to post on here about my trusted indy investing in autologic recently based in West Yorks, just outside of Leeds - as far as I know there are no other places locally that have it

In terms of the specifics as per the OP, I'm not sure but if people were interested in finding out I could get some details from him.

Jim, can you post some details of the garage and what they can do, that would be great.
I will add it up in my initial listing to facilitate this.
thanks.

Makkan - maybe if there is enough interest a 'coding' meet could be arranged if regional coverage doesn't look promising? Get a few members together to cover your fuel costs for coming out of area. Just a thought...

[MEGA]

Anywhere in London / Reading areas I'd say it's worth travelling to BW chiptune in Hounslow authorised autologic dealer and bmw specialist

[Nigelo]

I was thinking that if someone already had the coding software and cable then Makkan might be able to remote access the laptop and code remotely.

Good idea, but depends on interest of people.

On 24 June I will be in Walsall, if that is of any help to any fellow member.

Good idea, but I guess I would have to improve my networking skills then

These Guys did the coding on the LCI rears + fold from fob w/mirrors on my car.
They can do most coding if it's on Autologic + other stuff too.

Something around that figure,yes

[sparkie]

Is there anyone in mid Scotland available for this?
There is a garage in Coatbridge just outside Glasgow have the Autologic equipment but they clearly don't know how to operate any of their stuff after mis diagnosing faults on my M5.
After five attempts, over a tank and half of fuel and a lot of wasted time I gave in with them and took it to BMW who told me exactly the problem. £100 though..
I won't be back to the 'indy' garage...
