Thumbs up M235i Coding Done!

Alex @ 917-681-1833 Coded my car in NY, Queens today.

Unlock door engine off
close all/open windows/roof using FOB
Auto Radio/Navi off when engine off
Door handle Led in parking mode
Video in motion
Remove Disclaimer
M Theme display with start up
Auto mirror fold and unfold with fob & door handle
5 blinks with quick turn signal instead of 3

Is there anything that I should add such as M car engine noise?

M4 sound, doesn't really sound very good on the M235... there is like a weird drone at low rpms... sounds cool over 3k rpm though....

backup camera is motion is cool too
as well as european emergency blinking brake lights and variable light distribution

We tried the European blinker light, it did not work.

I also did the wide view light coding but only the driver side light goes to the left. The passenger side remains the same. Is this correct?

I coded the european blinker and works fine

VLD description

"Variable Light Distribution technology, optimises visibility under many driving conditions. The road speed dependant system automatically enlarges the driver’s field of visibility by broadening the light beam, or the “footprint” of light.

In a typical city night-time driving situation at speeds below 50 km/h, the system ensures a broader distribution of light making it easier to recognise objects on the oncoming side of the road.

In freeway mode, the driver’s field of vision is extended by giving the light beam a longer range, and again offering greater illumination on the far side of the road.

Activation of the fog lamps at speeds of up to 70 km/h also generates broader light distribution and brightens up the area close to the car.

At higher speeds, the headlight range is also extended over and above the broader distribution of light.

Variable Light Distribution has several different modes of operation (for Low Beam):

1 - City Light: Shallow and Very Wide Beam Pattern active from 0 - 50kph (30MPH) (Both Headlamps are Panned outwards 12° horizontal from center and 0.7° lowered vertically)

2 - Standard Light: Same Basic Beam Pattern as with 8S4 Enabled and Headlamp Switch Set to Auto. Active from 50 - 110kph (30MPH - 68MPH)

3 - Guiding Fog Light - Shallow and Wider Beam Pattern Enabled with the Front Fog Lamps On and Headlamp Switch in Auto and Speed 0 - 110kph (Both headlamps are panned outwards 8° horizontal from center and lowered 0.7° vertically)

4 - Highway Light - Long Throw Pattern illuminating approx. 25% further than Standard Light. Active from 110 to 250kph (68MPH- 155MHP). (Driver's Side Headlamp is panned 3.5° outwards Horizontal from center and lowered 0.25° vertically, while the passenger side headlamp is raised 0.2° vertical)"

Based on my video, is this correct? I feel like the left lane is brighter and my right lane stays the same. In a way, it felt like I had my steering wheel on the left making a turn. Only the driver side light moves to the left side when in Drive.

yes only the left lamp will move so that from 0-30 it points wider then moves to the right to not dazzle oncoming traffic

for the european blink you need to be braking in motion... they won't blink if you step on the brakes while parked

For the European blinker, it will blink rapidly when I apply brakes while driving?

My buddy coded European blinker but we thought it was supposed to blink twice when we put on the hazards light or turn signal.

So I should change "flaechenvergroesserung" to "bremslicht_blinkend" only?

What Emergency brake light threshold speed should I set?

Will the European style brake light blinking activate every time I brake, or only when I emergency brake - ie when the ABS kicks in?
