Supra Coding Step By Step

[CarGuy11]

Thought I would share some cheat sheets for Expert Mode on some of the other cars that Bimmercode works with. I didn't create these sheets, only found them online. It kind of gives you an idea of what things you can do with it. There are a few that I see listed that I would like to have done on the Supra. Some of these parameters might work and some may not, there's not guarantee. I have not confirmed any of them but thought I would share in case someone was looking for more info on this. It's pretty cool to see what options there are out there with this app.

Thank you!! I will take a look!

Haha yes but not this type of coding lol.

Okay, got the sport mode/mirror stuff done, couple questions.

1. Reading modules seems a lot slower on this new update for me. Is this normal or does the bdm read slower or something?

2. During programming in diagnostic mode, I got a “daytime/parking lamp malfunction” alert. Once the car was turned off and turned back on the alert went away. Both running lamps seem to work fine. Is this normal or do I have one of the damn headlight recalls coming my way?

I got the same error when I did my mirror tilt. I assume it was because the system reset the BDC and when it went offline, the computer threw the error. I remember getting a radar error when I coded the active crash stuff previously and it reset that controller.

I don't think the errors are persistent. I checked for trouble codes when I did the first round of programming and there was nothing in there.

Yes BDC module takes a lot longer to read as there are many menus.

Yes the malfunction is normal & should clear like you said.

Thank heaven!!!!! I was so worried I messed something up or was getting the headlight issue, lol.

looking at a few other things in there, someone was mentioning brake force programming, it’s in there. What’s this do? If you brake hard flash the lights?

 

[CarGuy11]

The brake force programming was already active on mine so was confused about that one. I can't say I've tested it tho. Need to basically slam on brakes at highway speed to activate flashing brake lights.

 

[Waferz]

Was going to browse around but that light freaked me out lol.

I guess I need to wait until I can hook up to a charger anyway

Brake Force Display is already in there? I haven't played with Bimmercode in awhile. According to this video, BFD is buried in the Front Electronic Module (FEM) & Rear Electronic Module (REM). Here is a sample video of BFD. I've had almost two people come close to smashing into me, so I thought this might help with that situation.

 

[CarGuy11]

^^^ Wow I think we need a lot more ECU accesses to activate it. Let me know if you figure anything out.

 

[consultadrone]

That example is from an F30 so the coding may be very different. Does the G29/Supra/Z4 even have those modules? Maybe I'll turn it on and give it a look?

Anyone know if the “M lap timer” is able to be coded to the Supra?

 

[CarGuy11]

Anyone try to activate turn signals in HUD yet?

Anyone try to activate turn signals in HUD yet?

Is that an expert mode option? Sounds interesting

 

[larrymz3]

I'll be interested to see if the turn signals can be activated in HUD. From what I understand it likely can't be, but, who knows.

I would find that distracting and annoying....LOL
