I will help you code your car [Free, BimmerCode] - MKE / Chicago area

I just coded my car today - enabled B&W profile and disabled ASD. Car feels more natural now without the speaker sounds and in my opinion the B&W profiles sound *awesome*.

Anyway, just throwing it out there in case someone doesn't want to spend the $40 on the app and $80 on the OBD2 adapter. Would be cool to meet more locals also and give me an excuse to drive.

What is B&W?

One of the first things that I do when I get my car (August? -- prod date 6/9) is nuke active sound. Ugh.

Where are you in Wisconsin? I am in the Madison area.

I'm near Brookfield / Sussex. Yes definitely get rid of that. I drive to Madison now and then for work.

Bowers and Wilkins - sounds much better than with the Harmon Kardon profiles. Just let me know when you get your car, hopefully by August.

Wilco!

Would love to meet up with another owner to pick your brain about the car. Seems like there is a lot to learn on these!

I will also have 1200 miles to burn so my son and I would be very happy to drive to you. My wife grew up in Sussex when it was still a small rural community.

Hello, my car is getting PPF right now but will hopefully be back to me by this weekend.

My son has the appropriate OBD device so I think we are just going to do this ourselves. Still would be up for a road trip to meet you!

But can you tell me where in BimmerCode to find the B&W profile?

I just got BimmerCode and am not hooked up to the car, but was playing around with demo mode.

Nice! It's pretty straight forward for the B&W profile, check this thread:

https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1845445

Always down for meeting new car people! Let me know.

While I am still far away from delivery, would be cool to meet some more local M guys. Would definitely take you up on the bimmercode offer when the time comes. I am out in the Schaumburg area.

QQ, would using the bimmercode potentially affect the warranty? I get that it isn't the same as an engine performance oriented ECU tune, but technically, it's still flashing over parts of the ECU, right? Or am I off here?

Wonder if using the bimmercode would be detectible by BMW and be used as an excuse to push back on a warranty claim.

What are your thoughts?

No clue to be honest. I would say it's harmless if you don't try and experiment with the advanced features.

Hi there. I just joined the forum (today) after my recent purchase of a 2022 M440i (G26). Saw your post as I'm interested in making just a few minor coding changes. I live in Greenfield and was wondering if your offer still stands? Still getting the jist of the form so please bear with me. Thanks !!

I'm still a few months from delivery also (fingers crossed for late May/early June), and on the west end of Schaumburg.

MMM.PWR tried to PM you but new to forum (as of yesterday) so it's not allowing me to send PM's for at least 7-10 days. Can you PM me, or if not send me email at navyvet197379@yahoo.com?
