Bimmercode Expert Mode Cheat Sheet

Hello, Just wondering if anyone has a cheat sheet for coding using Bimmercode on the G20. I have coded many things (sport plus,comfort plus, M instrument Cluster. ETC). I would really just like a sheet that lists all the possibly things we are able to code on our cars (like my previous F30) !

You can buy the OEM wireless charging unit online and install it in your car. You'll then need to do the coding mentioned above to activate it in your idrive.

Basically reminds you if you leave it in the charger. Not necessary, but cool nonetheless

I have added the below using Bimmercode Beta in standard mode on a UK spec car running BMW 07/20.54 software.

I have to keep a list as I need to re code the car each time I download the latest BMW software update as it wipes most of this coding and I have to start again.

Coding is done at your own risk. You need the correct software version and modules on the car for all coding to work correctly. All codes work on my car, but it is possible to cause serious damage to the car particularly in "expert mode".

Head Unit MGU
Remove legal disclaimers
M start up animation in I drive
Video in Motion enable
Radio 50% at start up
Tyre pressure & temperature both displayed
Front DRL check box added in I drive
Body Domain Controller BDC
Start car in adaptive mode
Light / rain sensor insensitive
Turn off passenger mirror tilt in reverse
Rear LEDS on with front DRL's
Boot opening delay to 1 second
No horn when locking car with engine running
Window lifter interuption when opening door - removed
Advanced Crash Module ACSM
Remove seat belt chimes driver and passenger
Change rear view camera to 50km and 50m
Engine Control Unit DME
Air con memory remember last setting
Air con auto settings used in manual mode
Instrument Cluster DKOMBI
Alpina dash layout
Powertailgate Module HKFM
Close tailgate without long press on remote

I added the below in expert mode

Enable Sport + function & Comfort + functions
Expert mode
Body Domain Controller - BDC
3221 PfFesMaster > fes > Change FesSportWorldMode1 to SportExpert (Default should be Non sport expert).
“3221 PfFesMaster” > fes > comfort plus > Comfort Plus

Enable sport + & comfort + options in the I drive menu
Expert mode
Headunit - MGU
3008 > Fes_sport_Expert > Change nicht aktiv to aktiv for sport +
3008 > Fes_Comfort_Plus and change it to aktiv for comfort +

Enable Auto Steering Wheel heat option in I drive
Expert mode
Headunit - MGU
3000 HMI SPEECH > AKT_Auto_Lenkradheizung > aktiv

Enable Auto Steering Wheel heat function
Body Domain Controller - BDC
3142 PfLinLRE > LHZ_ CCM_IKF > aktiv
3450 Others 1 > IKF_ENABLE: ikf_alle_sitze

Enable Rear Camera Zoom (Towbar)
Expert mode
Headunit – MGU
300B Parken- Macro_trailer_coupling > active.

Enable Bowers & Wilkins HI FI & Equaliser
Expert mode
Headunit - MGU
3002 - Audio Broadcast – Audio System then change the parameters from alev3-Ram to alev4-Ram code

Ambient light colours were then changed in expert mode with an additional instruction sheet which I have.

This is so helpful, thank you for having the time to write this out! I hope people can click on this thread and instantly find various coding options. You have made it much easier especially for me!

I tried this on mine a couple of months ago, but apparently I need the correct modules installed, which I do not have, so it did nothing. Mine was a March 2019 build.

Hi guys, Need some help.

Tried coding my 330e G20 year 2020
Was doing fine until coding FEM
Did some activation of Nav and Car Play (I assume apple car play)
After coding completed the idrive7 locks into an endless reboot loop.
The Logo comes on for a few seconds and goes off and comes on again. Endless reboot loop. Tried holding down the volume button 30sec to reboot the system but nothing.

The car is still drivable and only the reverse camera system comes on in R. Otherwise the idrive7 goes in to endless reboot and when reading the car on Bimmercode the FEM menu is no longer there. Probably due to the fact the idrive7 can’t start up.

Anyway to rectify this ?

If you used Bimmercode, try restoring from a backup?

FYI, if anyone is running the 11/2020.xx software I highly suggest signing up for bimmercode beta as the developers have fixed issues coding certain modules. DME for sure. Maybe others.

You don't want to brick your car so go easy with the expert coding. Only use known tested coding. Avoid trying to be a genius or you might end up needing a flatbed to dealer and be left with an expensive repair bill.
