Coding in Norfolk

JOHNBMWM5 · 05-06-2017, 03:19 AM

Hi all, I need to code out the Active sound on my new M3 CP, anyone in Norfolk who can do it?.
Or what tools do I need to do it myself, thanks.
I am trying to avoid unplugging the module as it effects service updating.

I think teaston is close to your neck of the woods.

Why do you want to code it out?

To do a DIY job you need an Enet cable and Esys.

I would have done pre baby, but probably best to find someone less busy than me now.

What I've done with mine John is got one of these:

and used the bimmerlink app to switch off active sound. Works a treat.

You can control the exhaust flaps too with it.

Only for the iphone mind.
