In Comfort+, when I accelerate, it’s pretty much instant throttle, but when I let go of throttle, the RPMs drop back to lowest possible very quick. It has great acceleration response but doesn’t hold your gear like Sport+ does. If you’re looking for good performance to fuel economy while still having that buttery smooth suspension setting from Comfort, Comfort+ is a great option to drive in.

Edit: If you’re driving groceries or when you have a full car, and you still want to change lanes or overtake with ease, then it's worth it to have this mode. I'm not sure how it differs in stock since I am on stage 1 but maybe @VipinLJ is right, in stock it probably doesn't make much of a difference, or even paired with JB+.
There is a slight difference. Just not as obvious as sport vs sport plus maybe I was expecting too much? Something like auto mode in Audis.

Need to provide proof of purchase of full BimmerCode in order to get beta access ... at least that's what I did.

I just opted in to the beta access via Google Playstore, I guess that's the same beta version you guys received from them directly?

I'm using the LX. It works fine. Connects via bluetooth but I believe it works only with android phones. Not apple. For apple you probably need the MX

For android yes. You choose the beta tester option in google play. For ios you have to mail Stephan for test flight.

It should. Bimmercode doesn't need an internet connection to code. It only needs an internet connection to download updates and stuff. In fact, you should put it in airplane mode to code without any issues.

Having trouble reading coding data to get into this repository. Coded smaller items with no problem. It's just getting to the point of loading percentage. And then it fails.

I'm using MX with android

Bluetooth no WiFi.

Any help ???

I see in the esys tread they got Comfort + to show in the idrive screen. Maybe they can get Sport + on there as well? I don't see where anyone has enabled that with esys though.

It's possible with esys. But not with bimmercode until Stephan enables expert coding the headunit module.

The bimmercode website has some of the things we can code (I don't think it has been updated to include everything).
Another link that has a few stuff is probably https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1592079

After a week of messing with having Sport+ and also being able to set my car to start in Sport Individual... Thank you so much to g20beam and others that have shared this knowledge. It feels like Sport+ with S/M shifting is much more responsive. Had been very disappointed in how the car drove since I got it last May. But then again, I came from a G80 M3, so I knew it would be not as peppy.

Now, I have to fight the urge for a stage 1 tune. :-)

BM3 has a decent tune for the G20 330i. Since your car is a 2019, you should look into it.

All you have to do to enable Sport+ on your G20 is to follow the steps below:

Necessary Tools:
- Bimmercode App (Full Version for 26.99)
- OBDLink MX+

*It is possible that these instructions may not be available to code on the public version of Bimmercode, so you may have to request the TestFlight beta version for this to be available to code.

1. Connect to the vehicle. Make sure your vehicle is in diagnostic mode by pressing start engine stop button 3 times in rapid succession.

2. Go into Body Domain Controller, the loading time is about 5 minutes or so, it takes awhile.

3. Go into Expert Mode (Button on the bottom left).

4. Search for “Sport”. Look for 3221 PfFesMaster.

5. Change FesSportWorldMode1 to SportExpert (Default should be SportDynamic).

6. Press code, after it finishes, you can cycle through with Sport button and get Sport Plus!

Also, if you look into “3221PfFesMaster” you can also get Comfort Plus!

Below is a video of the result of the coding as well as BM3 Stage 1 & Muffler Delete:

Hey g20beam, do u know how to code sport plus with esys?
