Bimmercode.... My 3 changes.... U should too!

[angrytoddler]

1. Turned on remember auto start stop. Thank God!

2. Enabled mirrorcast while in drive. I'm an Android user.... Will be nice to occasionally mirror my display.

3. Turned off Active Sound Design. This is great.... Stereo is definitely clearer and crisp. No doubt it's a serious improvement in some quality. I also like the REAL engine noise. It's not as loud.... But at least it's real.

I recommend #3 too all.

I had my car in for service. Auto on/off isnt engaged automatically anymore. Not sure if it was a mistake or not but I'm not complaining.

I have followed your lead - and added turned off the startup warning and camera warning.

The active sound design definitely makes a big difference to the stereo quality. I know alot of people have complained and I wonder if it would benefit others. I am not a huge audiophile - but I noticed it was clearer immediately.

What does turning off the Backup camera warning do? Is that just the audible beeping as you get closer to objects or something different?

No, it doesn't remove audible proximity beeps...

There is a warning message across the top the camera screen during reverse ....removing it increases backup camera vertical field of view...

Very noticeable difference....Once you remove the faux engine sound overlay it becomes quite obvious how noticeable it was...

And it's so much better without it...Made a big improvement to the quality / clarity of music during the drive...The low end in particular is much less distorted now...

How do you make these changes?

Can Sport mode memory be done as well?

I still want to know if you can use a laptop & Ethernet cable instead of a cell phone for the Bimmer code ?

What operating system is your laptop running? The Bimmercode program / app is only available for download on either an iOS and Android operating system / device...

Here is a list of supported OBD adapters required to use BimmerCode (they do list an Ethernet cable).

I ordered mine yesterday and purchased the app. Can't wait to turn off the active sound!

Are you able to mirror a video while driving with this feature?
