How to Disable the Acoustic Pedestrian Protection on a 2023 LCI 330e

Hello everyone,

I was trying to disable the acoustic pedestrian protection using Bimmercode but I couldn't find the option in the app. Can anyone help me with it? Does Bimmercode not support this feature yet for the LCI?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know the answer or if it can even be done. But out of curiosity why do you want to disable it?

I loved the stealth silence of my F30 330e without this rubbish feature, if only there was a way to have the same on my G20...

It wasn't there originally for me, but I have coded the car to display the option in the iDrive menu, but it will not allow me to remove the tick in order to disable it I suspect this is due to country-level restrictions (I am in the UK).

At a complete loss, I emailed Bimmercode support about this, who directed me to this setting:

Receiver Audio Module > Expert mode > VSG_WAVE_FILES > change to "file_14"

...to get rid of this annoyance on my G20 330e.

Unfortunately, whilst this did get rid of the VSG sound, it had an adverse impact on the audio function / iDrive system, causing it to crash at startup, resulting in having to revert the setting back to "file_1".

Having another poke around, I coded the following setting, and hoped for the best:

Receiver Audio Module > Expert mode > VSG_FUNCTION > change to "inactive"

And hey presto! VSG gone, no errors, and no adverse impact on anything else!
