Instead of swapping shifter I swapped entire car. Id8/no shifter/no laser lights drove me insane

Glad I found this thread. How has it been working? Is any coding needed? I have no idea how to code, and from what I understand there is no more coding on 2024 LCI vehicles.
Any advice on this swap will be appreciated! And FB wont accept me either! Last edited by PJ///M; 12-28-2023 at 10:12 PM.. Reason: Update |

Nope, plug n play. Just look up a video on how to remove the center console trim and after you do that it’s just four t20s and it comes off. Then you just unplug the two wires connecting and just install the new shifter.

Thanks, I have disassembled and reassembled the center consule twice, each time failing to disconnect the two wires that are plugged into their harness. I'm going to try my third time today now that I found a video of how one of the wires unlatches from its harness. The other seems to be just a very typical connection that I just can't get to budge. I've disconnected the battery each time, but the second time I failed my attempt and then put everything back together again, after connecting the battery, I had an alert that my parking break malfunctioned and my vehicle wouldn't respond or turn off for about 2 to 3 minutes. I then locked everything up and came back in five minutes and it's back to normal. I don't know what I did to cause that but of course now I'm hesitating going back in for a third time. I've read the stories on here of how people have bricked their car making a swap. Again appreciate the community help and any more advice is much appreciated.

Tried this today and completed the pre-lci selector swap with some struggle (front clips and pink connector). The pre-lci shift lever works but not any of the buttons. Does the module need an update? anyone have insight on how to get these to work? Car is '23 LCI

OK, the ones I'm talking about are definitely oem and not knock offs but they arent glass like that one. They are the OEM g20 pre-lci m340 consoles a bunch of guys have bought on here. They are taken off of cars not brand new from BMW where you'd surely pay more than I'm talking about I'd imagine. What your selling maybe isnt compatible with the 3 series youre posting in. Thats the confusion. our suspensions dont raise etc.

I'm in the middle of this swap now but seem to be stuck. Anyone know how to remove the CPU harness (small red one) from the bottom of the shifter? I have tried almost everything and I cant get this thing to budge. I attached an image of it.

That one pulls right out. I had the same problem as you. It was really tough to pull it out, so I had to use needle nose pliers to wiggle it out. Just make sure to to pull by the wires themselves! The one with the latch was a problem for me too. I had to find YouTube videos for that one. |
