Blood, did you make your dimming mirrors to work?
On my one I have $430 and $431, but I never see them to dimmed, just only the inside one, also my bigger concern is that I cannot activated the curbing function as well.
Is there any way to test the dimming in INPA? Also I have the puddle lights, but never see them working, I will try tomorrow add to the VO $563 for any changes.
When I went for the dealer "update"
they told me it is not in this car, but as far as I can see 430 and 431 it should be? I have folding and dimming mirrors without curbing? 
I just found the dimming function (2+2 cables to the mirror itself) when I took the mirror apart to have a look if the problem is not in the mirror itself. I have the old TMBT and TMFT modules.

... If you haven't ... 
For those w/ start/stop button you may find this useful (probably not so much for those w/ CA option
):
Basically, when shutting down hold the start/stop button and it should also eject the key fob out and in combination w/ ER_KEYOUT_AUTOVR it'll unlock the door(s) too.
Enjoy!

Awesome find! 
I have a CA, but I still need to plug the key in time to time. E.g. when more than 1 key is inside the car to not confuse the electronics and launch other key's profile (and let the seat kill you squeezing). Which is pretty often because my wife carries her key too.

Did some more LMA testing (pre-LCI):
VERHALTEN_DRL_TFL_33 drl_s (angel eyes as DRL. This works with the entry below but they are much dimmer than the LCI. Probably won't be able to see them during the day)
DRL_TFL_SML_33 aktiv (angel eys as DRL)
DRL_TFL_TFL_33 (seems to do same thing as _SML_ )
DRL_TFL_RL_BL_1_33 (Tail lights on with DRL. Much too bright I think. )
aktiv
DRL_TFL_RL_BL_2_33 (Didn't notice anthing different)
aktiv
DRL_TFL_BLK_V_GED (Didn't notice anthing different)
nicht_aktiv
neither of these seemed to have any effect
TAGFAHRLICHT_ECE_2 DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (EUROPE) 2
aktiv
TAGFAHRLICHT_ECE_3 DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (EUROPE) 3

Some more testing results:
I was looking for more DRL changes. My 2008 kombi has lots of DRL values where the 2007 trace file has none. I changed the production date of my pre-lci to #0907 and added DRL entries into kombi that I copied from my 2008 (LCI) file. To my surprise I was able to code the module with the new file and entries without error.
To my dissapointment nothing changed in the DRLs. I then tried to match entries between LMA and KOMBI that were the same and still nothing.
So, in this case, hopefully some negative results might still inspire some more thought for those of you experimenting. I think there is something to be said for changing the VO to a newer date in order to enter non-existant values - keeping in mind these entries often require changes in multiple locations for them to become effective.

Hi guys,
After reading all of this, i still don't understand, is it possible to put the passenger mirror curbing to see the side walk or not?
My car being a 2004 one.. is it possible to activate the mirror curbing function or not?
And what functions will i win if i update the LM to the LM2? do you know the number parts for the LM2's compatible with my car to start searching on the scrapyards?
Best regards

Viper - this thread is for people already doing coding and discussing results. Please discuss beginner topics in one of the other threads. Thanks.

I simply dont know some specific codings for this model, but on my old e53 already done lots of codings, and on some e46's for some friends.. not saying i'm an expert, far from it.. but i'm far from beginner..
Just asked some info on some fuctions that may or may not be activated on the codings.. not asking on how to do the codings.. just asking if the functions are possible or not and if they are, what's the names i should look for to be able to activate..
Now, i don't know why you acted like this, but you weren't correct on the observation you made..
because for what i understood, and for what even yourself said, this topic if for whom already does coding to share information and experiences, and as such it was what i was asking for.. and when i see that there is something on which i may be of some help, im always also happy to help.
Best regards
