Active backrest Auto on at starting up the car
Hi No Quarter,
Sorry to revive this old thread but sincerely need your guide on some active backrest issues.
I have managed to retrofitted a pair of front passenger and driver M5 seat here in singapore recently . However my problem is i need to turn the active backrest function on each time i started my car which i feel is very annoying.
May i know how is the onocess to do it , is via ncs coding or self customize the module setting via own computer like what u did ? i had tried to find out with my installer here but no luck as they could not find any coding to do this .
Appreciate your any input to help me on this many thanks !

Another update:
Short video shows
- Starting up the car and start up preferences automatically enable the Active Backrest in normal mode
- Pressing the miDrive button (diamond) sets Active Backrest to Sport mode, transmission to Sport mode, and changes the screen selection in miDrive to Sport mode
- Pressing the star button switches the video to display miDrive
- Examin the various screens and OBD values being displayed
OBD values are ultimately pretty useless but that is what I have at the moment. Will be switching to raw canbus readings but that is a lot of work so results will be slow.
** Can anyone tell me the right way to post videos?
