ESYS G20 coding - getting started
CODE AT YOUR OWN RISK
Disclaimer: I am not a BMW "coder", and I honestly have very little experience. Below are the details I was able to find online and through exploration, and I decided to share everything that I found. If something is wrong or incomplete, please let me know. There is evidence that suggests BMW detects coding and automatically flags your car as modified which could spell potential trouble with future warranty claims. https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1742168 Getting Started Esys is the software you need to interface with your car and code it. However, a few years back BMW obfuscated the data in Esys. In order to be able to make any sense of the information in Esys, you now need a launcher program. The two main ones are EsysX and Launcher Pro. EsysX Can be found at https://esysx.com/. I am not familiar with EsysX but it is similar to Launcher Pro from what I have read. Launcher Pro it is outdated, do not use it to code G series anymore Esys Software and instructions Once you have EsysX, it's time to get Esys. Almaretto has a great post detailing everything you need to setup Esys here - https://www.bimmerfest.com/threads/c...#post-10193333 Shortcuts from the link above
Coding instructions Once you have all the software installed, go here - https://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=983245 for information on how to code with Esys. Cheat Codes Scroll down to section "5. Cheat Sheets" here - https://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=983245. Cheat sheets are not relevant to the G series as they have moved to XML format *Note If you have issues updating cheat codes, go to - https://github.com/packetpilot/bmw-f/tree/master/cheats - and downloaded the repository as a ZIP. G20 Coding You can view what I have coded in a more readable format at - https://github.com/siegester03/bmw-g-series-coding So far, I have successfully coded the following:

I just started coding with E-sys (I was thirsty for the driving assistance view), and I'm eager to do some more customizing. My dream list is: 1. Heated steering wheel and heated seats turn on when using remote start. 2. Increase the amount of time I can keep my hands off the wheel while using driving assistance plus mode. 3. More stuff in the HUD. Maybe blind spot monitoring or park distance info. |

How did you get the heated seat distribution?
What does the full SMS display look like? I think I already have this.

I'd also like to find all the proper settings for the ///M dash and hud (if possible) I see some people are able to shortcut certain items and put them on their home screen which I am not (like tire pressure/temp, among others), so I am looking to enable those. Quote:
I will test and get a picture of that. I need to test VIM still too. |

what issues are you having?
Also, I was able to enable a few more features today. I also got cheat codes to load up in Esys finally.

From the factory BMW programs the speedometer to read higher than actual speed (for legal insurance). This makes it show the actual speed instead of the higher speed |

If he doesn't respond, then you likely missed a step or detail, reread his instructions carefully. He responded to me in less than 2 days with my access code (this was ~10 days ago)

Very nice, I just coded a few of these things as well. One thing I can't find is the automatic steering wheel heating activation. Can you clarify the key/value for that?

If you did everything like Tokenmaster asked you to, then you don't have to worry. But you might need some patience.
For me it took about 3-4 mths until I heard back from him, but that was during a time, where nobody heard from him. So I guess you'll hear from him pretty soon. He is very reliable! Just please don't write him angry mails, he is doing everything in his free time and doesn't gain anything out of it. All the money goes to charity! |
