Agree. Wiring the valves open just lying on the ground was hard enough. Could only use one arm. If I had backed it up on my Rhino Ramps would have been easier. Running wires--no thanks.

I spoke with a dinan dealer and dinan themselves it's back ordered and probably won't be available for a year

I ordered the CG Precision's one from Mod Bargains for $199 yesterday and it shipped already. I see a lot of sites have it backordered.

Yes I asked Peem to make sure it’s the OBD plug and play version I got as I’m not going to mess with the wiring, patiently waiting for its arrival

Website is in German - I assume that "Off" is standard stock valve function and not completely closed all the time? |

I haven't found a single person who tried BimmerLink yet only BimmerCode
I want to use BimmerLink to open the valve even if I have to do it everytime I get in the car I'm just worried about bricking the ECU, I've never coded a car before and I saw on one of the OBD connectors that they advertised "won't brick your ecu"…I sat there and thought to myself "well I wasn't worried about bricking my ECU until I read this" Regardless BimmerLink advertises that it works for g8x

I tried BimmerLink on both my G80 and F97 tonight. No luck with the exhaust flaps. An error comes up "Function not supported" or something similar.
Good news is that ASD can be turned off with BimmerLink. But I would have loved the valve controller function. Maybe an app upgrade in the future? |

Do you know if your obd connector is compatible for the g8x? It may fit properly but the coding will not work if it's not designed with this car in mind BimmerLink has a list on their site of which obd connector works with this car Also, are you afraid this could brick your ecu? I want to do it as well for a valve controller use-case but I'm paranoid I'll brick the ecu or void a warranty

I'll contact their support for advice which you can do by sending logs right from their app. I have no concerns about using this App I've done it on my various F80s with great success. |

Any thoughts on the difference between this and pulling the resonators?
This might be a cleaner aka reversible option? Similar results? Or is pulling the resonators louder? |

Why can't you just weld the res back? People have pulled res with no drone and even added xpipe. Sounds good to me from the videos.

Feedback from BimmerLink directly on opening the flaps with their application.
Hi, does not work for the G80 unfortunately. We achieved to control the exhaust flap when the car is standing still, but as soon as the car starts moving, the DME will regain control over the flap. This supports what many have reported on this thread already...but just closing the loop with more info. |
