How the dealer can code pretty much whatever you want! I thought to get DRL's and fob coding and stuff was done with a third party. I'm pretty excited now! Just pay the hook up fee and bring them a list of what you want

[belal242]

huh? please elaborate

[arctic330i]

Coding the car, as in getting settings that are not stock, or are not available without being turned on by the appropriate tools. My understanding is the dealers do NOT like this, yet mine brought it up to me.

I'm still lost. Most of the stuff I'm guessing you're talking about can be done by the OBC through the signal stalk.

I think he's referring to functionality like putting the 'vert top up with your fob, etc.

[E92N52]

can you give examples on what you can now do?

[arctic330i]

on my car 06 330i, the car never came with auto locking doors once you start to drive, so that is being added in. I am having done;

-angel eyes as my daytime running lights
-the auto door lock
-digital speed
-code the angel eyes to Euro spec, which means no amber sides on
-fob open front windows and sunroof only

I hope that clears it up. I always thought dealers were against coding like this, so I was shocked when mine said they'd let me do it.

No, the only thing on my list that could be done on your car's OBC would be the auto locking doors when the car is in motion. Everything elese is a added feature.

For 2006, the 330I did not come with the auto locking door feature and a few others that they added in the 2007+ models.

Hope that helps!

My 2006 330i sedan had the auto lock feature....as soon as I got in and drove off, the doors locked for itself.

[Zoraster]

I believe late 2006s have the autolock.

Very cool btw. Charging arm and leg?

[arctic330i]

Not tooooo bad, its 100 to connect it up then as much as I want coded. Those stupid auto locks are worth it. Haha

[HTran]

So youre saying the dealership has the tools to make our AE turn on as daytime running lights?

[arctic330i]

Apparently yes! And the euro spec that looks better! No amber sides are lit

[bugsandry]

Pretty nice....Canadian dealers must have charged crazy for this type of work..

[arctic330i]

I was willing to pay $100 for coding anywhere, I couldn't be happier its at the dealer though!

[HTran]

Thanks man, i guess ill be dropping by the dealership tomorrow.

[arctic330i]

No prob, good luck

My 2000 323i had that feature.

[arctic330i]

My dealer said it was consumer preference in 2006 models. Why that was even a a choice to begin with ill never know....

[Brey335i]

Most of those can be accessed through the iDrive in my car...

[arctic330i]

Well yes, yours is a newer model.

I had an '06 330i. I could do the auto locking, etc. The only thing that seems interesting is if I can pull the digital speed vmax, like the M3's. Can you confirm?
