Hey all, I was messing with “Signal Tones” in Bimmercode under Reciver Audio Module.

I did some research and found people on the G20 forums doing it, they get iDrive 8 sounds on their iDrive 7 units.

My G01 being a pre-facelift has the “semi” iDrive 7, and I’ve been getting a mix of,

iDrive 6 Blinker Click
BMW i Gong
and stock PDC sounds

The PDC seems to be a bit laggy, the Blinker Ticking is quieter than usual, and BMW i chime?!?

It seems like Pre-Lci iDrive7 can’t produce the sounds correctly, but who knows

Decided to go back to stock, but it seems interesting, maybe a LCI G01 or G02 can let us know how it sounds.

I’ve included some sounds from my G01, and iDrive6 F82 blinker tick for reference.

Videos for reference.

Here’s the G20 thread,

Looks like one of the Google videos is an X3 M40, so apparently someone has.

Can’t get the videos to play but I’m curious what it sounds like

I used Bimmercode to change my '22 X3's tones to "Rolls-Royce". There are about 5 different choices in the selection menu.

Changed mine to the Mini sounds. Tried them all and that was the one I liked best.

I guess the only way is to try them. Exactly what does it change ?

It is supposed to change all sounds coming from the speaker: Gong, Blinkers, PDC, and things like that. It seems like Full iDrive 7 vehicles “LCI X3/4” have no issues, but cars with “semi iDrive 7” “PRE LCI X3/4” are not capable of playing proper audio.
