Nope.

I'd love to be proven wrong though as it's something I want to get done!

Carly

Carly does not do this. I had to get a cable and INPA in order to code the Professional Radio in my vehicle.

Garage List
The newer head units use an optical fibre connection (MOST) for the headunits so coding can only be done using an ICOM (and not the OBD port).

My 2011 LCI uses MOST, in the past I have coded a 2007 pre-LCI using just the OBD port.

I'm able to code head units over MOST, no problem.

Most is the Fiber optic com that BMW uses between head unit, amp, changer and TCU or COM box.
To properly code a NON Most deck you need an ICOM head.
To properly code a MOST deck (including CIC) you will need to use ICOM with MOST head.
CIC can be coded with DCAN cable without issues.
You can sometimes trick a MOST (non CIC) deck with a DCAN cable into taking coding.
