MPPSK and the boot-up wallpaper on iDrive screen

I read somewhere on this board that the start-up screen on our IDrives 5 would/could display the "M Performance" at the time of ignition once MPPSK is installed on some newer models such as 2017 . Anyone else hear the same, or know if possible?

The idrive screen can be coded to show the M logo, but I rarely see it. You can code the m performance logo on the instrument cluster and HUD. Neither come with the MPPSK, you have to DIY or have it done. There's info on the coding procedures if you search the coding board.

Edit: mines a '16 so not 100% sure on the '17s.

I have a 17 with MPPSK and it didn't come with it. I had to code it all in. idrive screen, HUD & extended cluster is where it shows up. Like others said it doesn't show all the time except in the extended cluster it does. zz

Sure. You have a coding cable and E-Sys on a Windows laptop?

wrong logo displayed

n KOMBI / BMW_LOGO and MPM_LOGO I've set option to MPM but I get a logo for M550D. I can get X5, X4 and X6 logos but not M Performance

What am I doing wrong? See the pic below

As mentioned already - The M - logo can be coded to be shown on the iDrive instead of the default one, but this has aboslutely no dependency on MPPSK. Can be done with or without. I had it coded without.

I had MPPSK installed a year after getting the car but no changes to iDrive. I never see the iDrive start up animation anyways but I was able to code in the M Performance logo on the instrument cluster instead of the standard BMW with Bimmercode. ThicF30 on youtube has a bunch of how tos regarding bimmercode. ~$60 for dongle and app to be able to code a lot of different things

The only change MPPSK brings to the iDrive is the increased power/torque scale of the sport display. Nothing else.
