The ModBMW ODB adapter is good, it's much faster than the bluetooth adaptors and is a reasonable price with good support should you need it. If you want bluetooth the OBDLink CX Bluetooth is good but slow. I've had both and the wireless adaptor better

I've been using the OBDLink CX Bluetooth since on Bimmercodes supported adapters page it is the only one that says "made for bimmercode" on it.
I've used it on multiple BMW and Mini generations with zero issues. |

The best OBD2 adapter is the Veepeak one in my opinion. It has worked no matter the model. So I recommend buying that one if you wanna use BimmerLink or BimmerCode

For those of you that have coded the cluster to M Performance and DONT have the M240i logo showing here is how I fixed it:
Go to Instrument Cluster Click on Backups Choose the oldest backup and code it (BimmerCode takes backups prior to making any changes) Exit the Instrument Cluster and then go back in For Layout choose either of the M performance options and code You should now have the m240i logo! My theory is that those of us that choose a layout that was not one of the M performance one’s right off the bat we “lost the ability” for the logo to show up. Once we restore our initial backup and then choose M Performance we get the m240 logo! |

So picked up my new beast and noticed that they did not do it properly. Can you code out lane assist to be on every time you turn the car on?

Lane Assist (or Lane Departure Warning) should always be on if you're over 30mph and the system is on. No reason to code that. You can deactivate it if you do not like it in the safety systems menu of your IDrive. You have a button for it next to your hazards to quick access that menu.

Okay so you have to make sure your safety systems are in individual and not "All On". If it's on individual, the physical button should change from a green circle to an orange one. Change the Lane Departure Warning to off and that's how you know you're all good. Should stay off no matter what.

When "coding" a car you're modifying these configuration files to change behaviors to something the car already knows how to do, just not in your country or model. |

I'm currently looking for a way to code this to add memory to the setting like in auto stop start. It must be there and it would be buried in expert mode but it's well masked. Because it is regional there will be a way of coding it back to remembering the last selection. |

Sorry if I missed this, but can you code led light bars in the taillights to stay on all the time? I did this in my f22 and really liked it as I think it helps people see you during the day.
