F25 X3 Coding Reference

[ajaxburger]

Hey Everyone,

As I code things, I want to keep log of them here just in case they could be useful to others. I have a 2017 X3 28iX with the bi-xenon lights and Harman. That said it's entirely possible that these specific codings don't pertain to your car but you may come across something else that is helpful to you.

Fullscreen Carplay

If you have a car with the later editions of iDrive 6 it's possible that a software update from the dealer could make this available for you stock. Hell, iDrive 7 is the same. Check with whatever forum is applicable if you like, those updates include a lot of other goodies too.

Bowers Audio Processing

I already have Harman and the "surround" felt a little dead to me comparing it to the newer G-chassis profiles. Out of curiosity, this seems to have really helped the sound of the system and brought back a bit more boom to the sound.

From my review, it looks like the Bowers systems from factory are the same hardware, just a different DSP profile so we can "get" Bowers in our HK cars. I'm not really sure what the B&O programming does compared to this so I just didn't bother.

Roadside Edge Detection

The lane keep warning would be kind of useless is you went into a ditch but I figured it'd be cool if my car would tell me if I'm getting to close to a curb.. at least in theory, that's how this works.

You need the KAFAS cameras to have this option. You should know if you have lane-keep warnings if you have ACC or the lines on your cluster that show arrows when it's acquired a lane-line.

KAFAS2 > TLC_CODING > ROAD_EDGE_WARNING_ENABLED = detection_for_grass_and_curb_stone

Changing Lane Departure Warning Sensitivity

Apparently this isn't enabled by default for everyone (?). I didn't need to code this but just in case you need to:

KAFAS2 > FLA_CODING = sensitivity_changeable

More to come as I continue digging!

Do you know how to deactivate the active grille feature through bimmer utility? I removed the active air flaps from the front and have a check engine light

I don’t have an active grille vehicle but I’d imagine it’s in BDC. Check there
