X3 G01 coding help
Hi,
First post here, and sorry if this is answered already. I have a 19 plate X3 G01 running software NBT_evoP. I had CarPlay from new but it is split screen and I'm looking to make it full screen. I have found conflicting information.
Thanks. |

NBT_evoX and above can be coded using bimmercode. The rest needs to be patch to fullscreen, not possible with bimmercode.
If you are interested i can update the headunit to latest firmware and you should be able to code it using bimmercode. For tailgate coding you can do it using bimmercode. |

So one method is "feature installer" (bimmer-remote) and the other "coding" (bimmercode if running X or later). Are there advantages/disadvantages of one or the other?

Using feature installer requires to have a windows laptop and enet cable, then someone can generate the code for you and use it to patch fullscreen. Bimmercode, you can use any coding adapter to code it. |

I think I’d prefer the software update so I am free to use BimmerCode. It feels more sustainable and less hacky that way.
Is the update you can do safe? And how much would it cost? I haven’t even spoken to BMW about doing it (I’m in the UK) but I can’t imagine it being easy to persuade them, then considering price and time. |

The update is safe, you should have a car battery charger to keep voltage stable throughout the update.
If the car is under warranty you can try tell them to update the headunit. If they cant then I can help you out. |

Hello everyone. I really need some help. I was using Bimmercodes to deactivate the auto start/stop option using bimmercodes but now I’m getting a red dot on the ECU section and it says invalid data. The car doesn’t start :bs: . I tried to recover using backups but it fails every time. I heard using Esys I could rest to factory setting but I’m new at it and have no idea how to do it. Could any want walk me through the steps how to perform the ECU rest please.

Use these steps to inject cafd using esys. Connect => Read FA (VO) => Activate FA (VO) => Read SVT (ECU)=> Left-Click on KOMBI => Click on "Detect CAF for SWE" => Select the CAFD from latest I-Level shown (bottom) => Select OK => Right-Click on KOMBI (the ECU itself not the underlying CAFD) => Select CODE. |
