The fact you have some functionality with the idrive controller to me suggests its hardware related. Can you show me a thread about this software problem?
Have a look at the controller itself... https://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1070338
PDC - can you upload a photo of where the PDC module should be? If it has the wiring there already then it should be easy to install another module... |
Hi, sorry it's been so long since my last post.
I have tried to reset the system that way before but it doesn't fix anything when it comes back.
I've found these threads which relates to coding and software issues in relation to the idrive wheel.

I am sure I found others that did say something about a reset to match the idrive system with the contoller but I can't find posts like that now.

Those latest ones are an example of someone else likely having what I have wrong but they haven't span the wheel fast/long enough to realise it will function, just very badly.
Also since my last post I have been into BMW and got one of the staff to pull up my exact car specs. It turns out my car never came with idrive when built so it must have been put in afterwards and i'm almost certain it was the idrive system from an M3 (I get error messages whenever i turn it on to tell me about an error with the dynamic damping control which I have only ever found related to in M3 threads)
Finally, I also took apart one of the controllers I had which showed nothing wrong hardware wise. The sensors to detect scrolling would work but I had to engage them multiple times per one scroll turn (if you know what I mean lol) which makes me think the system isn't picking up the information correctly from the controller.
And no, no current wiring in place for PDC.

Also just been reading that. I think I can get one of those newer style controllers for around £100, do you think that would work plug and play? Maybe my idrive system is newer than the old single button style controller I have and that's why it won't work.
