I've been searching like crazy but I can't seem to find an answer to my question.

So, at the moment it's not possible to activate the rain sensor sensitivity in iDrive...

With that in mind I started searching for a way to turn off the rain sensor completely and use the rotating knob on the steering wheel stalk as a manual intermitted wiper setting. I believe this was possible with the E46. I've been looking for such an option in NCS for the E61 but came up empty so far.

Does anybody know if it is possible and if yes, what module needs to be coded?

I'm wondering if this a software version problem? I've coded Cornering Lights and Welcome lights into the LMA and CAPPL, they're working but no options in I-Drive.

Where do i find out the version? Can it be upgraded easily or is it a BMW job?

Thanks
Show me ur "pathway"/"welcomelight" settings. From both CAS and LMA. Then i can compare them.

Default coding out reverse errors

Hey party people,
Just got my cable and NCSexpert program today. I've read tons of posts and lots of research.

Tomorrow morning I'm going in....

2007 pre lci 530xi m.a.s.k unit.

Going to do the digital speed...code out disclaimer... And code out back up lamp errors(I put in LEDs and get that annoying message)

How do I do the reverse bulb code? Thanks in advance guys! A small step by step guide would be greatly appreciated, since its my first time coding

Hi all,

I got force braking coded correctly tonight. I noticed that the flashing stays on until you release and reapply the brakes. Is there a way to automatically stop the blinking after a few seconds or a few blinks? It looks like standard hazard lights if you just stay on the brakes after force brake.

I did the double hazard via netto.

I found a new setting under lighting in idrive as I added a few other things too.

There is adaptive headlight setting, comfort, sport or off.
There is also high beam assistant

Both of these has the auto lamp light next to the text. If I turn off auto lights, then these 2 settings will automatically turn off in idrive. When I drive, I didn't actually notice any of these functions actually doing anything including corner lighting. The fogs dont light up, I thought they were supposed to.

I am 2008 LCI 535 with AHL.

thanks

You need the FLA mirror for high beam assist to work.

Mike,
Sorry, is that a type of mirror/glass for the dimming on the side mirrors to work? I have folding mirrors now.

thanks

No its the rear view mirror in the car. There's a sensor in it for high beam assist.

Large square on lower part of mirror base.

Does anyone know what code modifications are required to slow down the iDrive controller? I've been searching like crazy without success.

I upgraded my navi to CiC recently but I decided not to change to the new iDrive controller in my 2006 M5 because I don't want to cut out a larger hole in the trim. The sensitivity of the old iDrive knob is just off the charts, one click goes right to the very last menu option.

Thanks for the help.
