Wow, that's great -- wonder if US version of 7/2020 update does that as well?

I just updated my vehicle to 20-07-530 and discovered the coding that had worked (https://g20.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...0&postcount=56) with 20-03 no longer worked until I changed CAFD 5665 LIC_Feature_4 to disable

Wonder if that has to do with your European taillights?

Hi RSnic,

I am pretty sure the FDL Coding I posted in post #56 was with the ECE tail lights installed. I suspect the update to 20-07 may be the cause.

cool because of this thread I was able to code DRL activation, Sport mode as default, fogs lights can be activated only with parking lights and changed to sensitivity of rain sensor/light to normal(sensitive as default)
Thank you to all

I have a German M340i touring DRL rear was not working, even when I had it in the iDrive menu enabled. I am on 07/2020.54.
I have LIC_Feature_4 disabled, but in my car this is under 3702 LicFeatures and not under 5665.
Thnx for your info. I can now put the rear drl on and off in the iDrive menu.

This is interesting as I am also having issues since the update to 07/2020 software.

Prior to the latest 07/2020 software update I had my rear DRL's coded through Bimmercode to come on with the front DRL's - Expert mode
BDC / 3702LicFeatures / Feature_4 / Activ.

After the software update I have recoded all my previous coding options. I noticed that the rear DRL feature is now in the standard coding options within Bimmercode, which I have enabled.

I noticed today that the rear lights are not coming on with front DRL any longer regardless of the tickbox being ticked or not.

I have two tickboxes in I drive, one for front DRL and one for rear DRL. Front tick box works fine to turn front DRL on and off, but rear tickbox does nothing either way. The rear lights remain off until either sidelights or main beam are turned on.

Checking in Bimmercode, the Expert mode / BDC / 3702LicFeatures / Feature_4 is currently set to Activ.

As suggested by others here, I have just set my BDC / 3702LicFeatures / Feature_4 back to disabled rather than activ and that appears to have resolved my issues.

Rear DRL's are now working with front DRL's and both tickboxes are working independently.

My rear DRL tickbox now turns on and off the rear DRL and the front DRL tickbox now turns on and off the front DRL. Perfect.

This issue only came to light after the recent 07/2020 update, so it was definitely linked to that.

I was a bit afraid to access EXPERT MODE but did what described above and thick box became responsive, enabling the function as expected. Cheers !

i'm sorry guys i need to bump the thread to refer back. i have just realised my button on iD7 to turn on rear lights with DRL makes no difference and the lights don't turn on.

then i thought - wait - what is the difference between all the light modes. when does the lights have the blue accent, when do the angel eyes turn on, when do they not, now i'm more confused than ever.

if i can't work out the codings i might just manually turn on all the lights when i want to (eg on the highway - better to be seen)
