Can coding be keyfob specific?

Did a quick search and didn't find an answer to my question. I apologize in advance if it has been answered before and I just couldn't find it. Can each keyfob have its own coding (i.e., seat position, side mirror position, AC, etc.)?

I was looking into getting BimmerCode. Would I be able to make the required adjustments with BimmerCode?

Thanks!!

Isn't that what "Driver Profiles" are for in the iDrive system? You should be able to create different profiles from within the car and assign a different profile to each key.

Here is a quick youtube video about it...

Thanks F80_BK. That makes sense. I haven't taken delivery of my M4 yet, so I haven't been able to explore. But I was also asking for my wife's 2014 Z4, which does not have the iDrive system. How would I do that for a non-iDrive car?

Coding changes features to on/off or a value (like speed at which auto-locking occurs) - it's not keyfob dependent. The things you can change via iDrive (or the switch and button on the turn signal stalk) are set in whichever profile is active at the time.
