Parking sensor sensitivity and bimmercode

I used Bimmercode to code a few wonderful things:
Sport Plus
Comfort Plus
Wireless charging phone reminder
Fuel reserve sign cutoffs

Unfortunately, I feel like it did something to the sensitivity of my parking sensors. Where they were once very very sensitive when I first got the car, I feel they are much more subdued now. I'm wondering if by coding my car, something defaulted the parking sensor sensitivity to a lower level.

Does anyone know if it's possible to code parking sensor sensitivity via bimmercode, and how to code parking sensor sensitivity via bimmercode?

You know, I kind of feel the same way also! Coded HU animation and warning message, and IC display with Bimmercode...after, it feels like the parking sensor sensitivity diminished to the first red bar.

Yes, this is exactly what I am seeing. Before coding, I easily had sensors going nuts at the deep green and yellow zones of the PDC. Now, they only beep at the first red light. If anyone has tips on how to code sensitivity back, I would appreciate it!

Is it at all possible you got an iDrive update that changed the functionality?

bimmercode question

Hi I am new to this forum.
If anyone has tips to get vlinker MC, OBD2 bluetooth to connect with Bimmercode on an iphone it would help me immensely.
Have a new 2022 G26 M440i gran coupe. I purchased the Bimmercode app for my iphone 11 running OS 15.6.1.
I bought the compatible vlinker MC bluetooth but I cannot for the life of me get the vlinker to connect to the iphone. the blue light flashes on the module but isn't recognised by the phone. I followed the special instructions for g series cars but have become too frustrated to continue.
If anyone can offer insight as to what specific exact sequence of preparation i need to do to get the vlinker to at least be recognised by the iphone I would appreciate it.
thanks
