Wondering if anyone has a solution for CC on a m5 cluster. I have a 535 with standard cc as an option, and have yet to code it with ncs as I can’t quite figure it out.
Is there a step by step for how to code the cluster to work with an auto 535? Thanks!

I figure I’ll resurrect this discussion from a few months ago, because it looked like there was a lot of skepticism about getting this to work fully without errors, despite a few successes noted above. Well, I just did mine last night, and it’s functioning perfectly with no errors or tamper dot.
I purchased a March 2009 M5 cluster for my 2010 LCI wagon (born July 2009). I removed and resoldered the EEPROM to flash my VIN and clear the miles. After flashing the EEPROM but before coding, my cruise control was not functional, and I got the typical errors for transmission, EDC, and several others. Then I simply coded it with my custom MAN file from my original KOMBI and everything works. No errors, correct red line, correct oil temp, and transmission [P, D, R, gear] reports as the original cluster did, including with the SAT retrofit function.
I’m curious to see if there is a pre-LCI difference, so if anyone has a pre-LCI cluster (or LCI for that matter) that they’re struggling with, I’d be happy to help (share BIN files, flash, etc).
