Been trying various settings and its not too bad but still find certain tracks cause distortion.

L7 have an Orange label and are marked with the L7 logo. Hi-Fi subs should be a blue label as far as I'm aware and have seen, however Hi-Fi subs are 2ohm and L7 subs are 4ohm. The Alpine amp isnt 2ohm stable therefore L7's are best suited.

Where did you get your L7s from? Did you fit, or a dealer?

If you have alpine kit and get it coded to hi-fi as Adrian, I and many other forum members did.

I got the alpine upgrade, how can I tell that it has been coded, is there a menu on the i-drive?

I have the pro Sat Nav

If you have lci with pro-nav and dealer installed it, they should have codes it.
With pro nav you cannot find out.
Look at your alpine amplifier switch and see at what position it is? As that will give you idea whether installer coded it or not?

where should the switch be set?

I did get it installed at the dealers who did charge me for the coding as well... just want to make sure they carried it out!

Take a deep breath. If they charged you, they should have done it.
There is a switch under the amplifier and check at what position it is.
