Pay attention to spread details, because you can damage the car using INPA & NCS. And no dealer would be able to fix it.

Yes, you can buy an USB interface.

Trust me, really do your thorough researching, before you attempt to start using the INPA & NCS equipment, most of the people on here that use these are more or less self taught, or up to speed by helping each other, sharing vital info.

if ya don't know ask? even if it means looking after the person that helped you, its a lot better to do that than try be a hero and mash up your module.....

I met someone in my area that does coding and it is AWESOME

What I got done:

1) Fogs and high beams that stay on at the same time
2)Comfort access on my side view mirrors that go up when doors are locked and go back down when unlocked.

AND

3) When i hold the lock button all the windows and sunroof close

My question IS:

1) Is it possible to enable my DVD player to work on my idrive with some coding? I know European vehicles have that already enabled so I was thinking it might be possible to enable it using some coding. Not while driving of course.

2) As I already have HUD, if i put MHUD, what is the difference? What will be shown on the screen? Is it the rpm gauge and the gear?

3)What are some other coding features that i can get done on the car?

Thank You!!!
