Hi all, it’s time I finally add I-drive to my car.
I have my e90 335i that has almost all fbo mods installed and will keep having money thrown at it, but is getting very wore out from using it as a daily.

I just purchased an 07 335i with the upgraded I-drive stuff, individual tpms on screen, oil level on screen etc etc. This would be the new daily.

So I have the new car that would have all the parts I could need, besides coding.
I want to know what I need to swap over from 1car to the other please.
I know the dash and the screen but what specific modules would also have to swapped over.

I have seen the diy on the 1addicts site but I believe they use the older I drive system, would it still be the same thing?

You’re probably thinking why don’t I just swap mods over to the idrive car.
The non I-drive has had m tech bumpers painted and installed and lci trunk/taillight installed and painted.
I would rather swap I drive parts from one to another.

Really wanna do this swap. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Non idrive to CIC is about an 8 hour job. It is not that hard.

Thank you for that.
I have seen that diy. The user used a ccc.
Does that diy cross over exactly to a cic swap? As far as the wiring.

Is is the same thing except you need to run a Chinese emulator or flash the CIC with new FSC codes. You will also not need to pin in a fan harness.

[Serf27]

Ok either flash the FSC codes or the emulator right?
Does the cic not have a fan? Or why wouldn’t it need a harness.

Also the cic idrive Car has the usb/aux plug in the center console.
Would that involve swapping the module in the trunk over also so the USB/aux plug work too?

The CIC has an internal fan and not a external one. You will need either a combox or MULF module in the trunk to retrofit the center console USB.

[Serf27]

Ok thank you.
The idrive car already has the mulf module since it is equipped with the usb.
Do I just unplug it from that car and plug it in the non I drive car and it will work?
Or does that require extra wiring in the trunk and the center console?

Read up on a MULF retrofit. That will answer your questions.
