Would they be able to code the care for logic7 when the Logic7 amp isn?t present? I think that when they code the car the software check if the correct partnumber for the amp is present and if no Logic7 amp is found the code would fail.

Hello Mr. Bruce,
Yes for making the AGWPlus working you need the LOGIC7 option coded, the normal HI-FI it's not enough for to have the audio signal and amplifier commands inside the optical fiber cables.
The LOGIC7 option can be coded by BMW services.
Feel free to contact us for any other requersts

I think you're correct. I just did a Navi-retrofit on my nav pre-wired 530. I got a brand new professional screen off an X5 and the CCC from another 5 series. I have standard sound...a component set in front doors and 2 sets in my rear deck with two woofers under seat. I wanted the navigation portion without hacking it all up but decided to go OEM. Before the retrofit the amp in the rear never worked therefore subs did not. Checked the amp inputs and had power/gnd/remote but no input. I installed the unit, had no sound. Took to dealer to get MP3 coded and Aux put in....Sound is back but no woofers. Same issue with tiny amp. Aux does not work. i think that the leads in back of CCC do not work unless it's coded. Computer is all up to date. The reason I mention this is because to do the coding I made them pull a 5 series pro screen out of their parts to do the coding as it didnt recognize my X5 screen. Now I tap into rear speakers to get hi-level inputs and get about 50 watts of power off a 325 watt RMS Sony amp with gain all the way up. It hits like a 4" woofer. Ridiculous.

Yes the CCC needs to be coded for Hi-Fi or L7. However I think Hi-Fi (US std) can be coded without the amp actually being there because the amp is a paasive analogue unit. There is no way the CCC can interogate the amp's presence or absence. However with the L7 (and most other modules) the CCC will check if the device is actually on the BUS or not before it installs the software.

There are no can bus wires going to the L7 amp, all communication is done thru the MOST optical network. It is just like when the Gateway 500 first came out 4 years ago and we had to program the CDC function in order to use it on a non CDC cars. You actually had to plug in a BMW changer in order to load the CDC software, after that, the changer could be removed from the car and the CCC did not have any errors. ( This process is no longer needed for the gateway 500 since you can now load gateway software onto the CCC instead of the CDC software).
