can anybody do some coding for me please??

holmefield · 11-05-2014, 03:33 AM

Hi all im based in Burnley ( come on the clarets, currently bottom of the premiership ) Lancashire northwest..

I drive a pre-Lci 330 D M Sport 56 plate E90 and im after some coding doing please.

Im not sure what can be done? my mirrors already fold up with the key fob but i'd like

1. Instant Mpg ( so I can OCD how much im booting it ha ha )
2.Alarm beep when locking/unlocking

Anything else thats achievable with my current setup???? I dont think I can have welcome lights when I unlock the car as I've read that mine been the 56plate will have the Frm1 module and I believe you need Frm2 for that.but Im happy to be proved wrong.

I dont mind travelling a bit and paying for your time...

Thanks for any help...

I can code the 2 items listed, I'm in Newcastle. I'm in the same boat as you with the FRM for welcome lights though.

holmefield · 11-05-2014, 10:57 AM

Cheers bud I'll keep ya posted Newcastles about 100 miles away for me thou.

It does seem a big expenses doesnt it having to get an Frm2 module just to get welcome lights!!! I wonder if a Frm2 module lets you do extra stuff????

holmefield · 11-05-2014, 02:31 PM

is there anybody in our around Lancashire I.E Blackburn/Bolton/bury/skipton ???

That can help?

holmefield · 11-05-2014, 02:32 PM

Thanks Wibbles, I may well be calling on your coding if my local search comes up empty handed...

PAULDON · 11-05-2014, 05:33 PM

Just download the BMWhat app for your phone, you can code the beep on that, I did mine t.... Very straightforward, not sure about the other though

I've downloaded the free version, havent bought the proper version yet, but dont I need to buy a cable as well?

holmefield · 11-06-2014, 03:35 AM

I have factory Adaptive Xenons & Auto lights fitted does that mean I will still have a Frm1 module fitted to my car?

PAULDON · 11-06-2014, 06:47 AM

You can get a cable from ebay, OBD-USB cable. Then you need a USB to Mini usb cable for it to plug into your phone. And you can't code with the free version of BMWhat.

I think FRM module version are dependant on year your car was made, mine is a e92 2006 and has welcome lights with a FRM1

holmefield · 11-06-2014, 07:33 AM

Ok thanks is there a OBD-USB cable you'd recommend? im watching a couple on Ebay but not sure which is ok if either?

When I type it in it brings up quite a few @ around the£20/£30 mark.

Thanks

Precision Engineered · 11-06-2014, 07:58 AM

I have BMWhat app and I'm in Blackburn. Pretty sure it can code what you need.

PAULDON · 11-06-2014, 10:44 AM

You can get them cheaper than that if you decide to DIY ebay: 151335207126, or a UK seller with tools CD 121477265074

corasdad · 11-06-2014, 12:18 PM

thought the bm app only worked on lci e90 not pre lci

I am also in burnley and want a few things coded but again not sure what can be done

Thanks I'll give it a look, think I'd prefer to watch the first coding thou...but im def going to look into buying my own just want to see how its robe 1st by somebody with more knowledge. ..

holmefield · 11-06-2014, 12:32 PM

I've just looked @ this one 151335207126 and it seems very similar to my unused Vag-com cable...I wonder if my vag-com would work..it cost roughly the same & came from a similar place ( I.E china )

holmefield · 11-09-2014, 03:16 AM

Bump still after some coding doing if anybody is near by???

holmefield · 11-11-2014, 03:15 AM

Nobody near by who can help?????

holmefield · 11-16-2014, 05:25 AM

bumping this backup incase anybody can help a fellow Bmw driver out....

Thanks again to the offer from wibbles but Newcastles quite along way from me.

I've considered getting all the gear to do it myself but having never done coding on a Bmw before especially using my phone, I'd like to see how its done before I buy the kit...Anyhow I'd love to be able to get instant MPG, DIGITAL SPEEDO & ALARM BEEP when locking...

Thanks

To be honest I can see why there has been a lack of response to both our requests. No-one wants to risk screwing up our cars for no money. Makes sense really.

I gave up with my hunt and I'm using these guys based in Preston to code my Logic 7 tomorrow:

Can let you know how I get on if you like. Coding is something like £102 inc VAT
