Just had B&O audio + Idrive 6 Lite coded in

Got some goodies coded in today for shits and giggles while i was adding euro MDM





Everything works as before. Idrive 6 lite is basically just a skin change. looks better than the old menu in my opinion.
I like the interface more.

The B&O audio apparently made a huge difference in my friends F80.
In the M2 i believe it's not as customizable in terms of the EQ settings but it's still pretty sweet.
I don't have the best ears so i can't tell how large the improvement in sound is. Sounds crisper to me but im not sure if this is a placebo effect or not. Either way it looks cooler and i just added these two things to the menu since i was already getting some other things coded in.

Oh yeah...and Euro MDM is way better and less intrusive than the normal setting. Get it.

Pretty sure our cars don't have the appropriate hardware for the B&O coding to work properly

I was really bummed out about it

Especially considering we didn't even get the EQ, it would have been nice to have some additional audio features!

Did you actually replace the speakers in the car with factor amp with a B&O ?

Coding is easy but as other user said it might not work with the factor AMP

Also by the way i think its a bug but if you enable 3d maps and weather and google maps view. Those settings turn off once in a while in ID6 Lite not sure why I think its a bug.

no i didn't replace the amp or speakers, it was just coding we did and it didn't do anything besides change the appearance a little on the head unit. it added some Bang & Olufsen logo's and some minor things like that.

I haven't noticed any bugs yet with ID6 lite. I don't use the 3d maps tho.
