ps: can you make a photo from the wheel behind the paddles ?
Each paddle has a 3 pin conector. 3 pin, 'cause the iluminated paddles. The other two is for signals + or -

Hi guys I need some help
A few weeks ago I had asked about programming SAT $2TB retrofit
I have already finished all the hardware installation but I have been trying to get my car coded to have the hardware working
I went to a dealer to get it done but they said it is not possible to have SAT in my 525d LCI 03/2007
I know that it is possible because the SAT gear module is compatible with my car
I would like to asked you something: could it be possible to have VO from your cars to compare with mine and find out what is it missing?
I just delete $205 and add $2TB and we have got some error from the coding machine (a dealer one not NCS Expert)
Thanks

The retrofit is possible... my car is an 03/2007 build as well and the dealer was able to code it just fine. Consider PM'ing NoQuarter who did the coding himself for his retrofit, as he'll have more details on what's involved vs. some of the rest of us who had the coding done at the dealer.

Good luck!

But mine is a 525d LCI
Do you is it possible top?
I have checked the compatibility and I think it is possible but when I add $2TB and delete $205 and connect to the dealer machine, an error relates with GWS and EGS/SMG appears
Any help NoQuarter?
Thanks

Got your PM. I'll look over my notes and such and see if I can come up with anything that might help. This car has the SAT available as a factory option?

I do not know
I was looking for a sales brochure to find out
I think from what I read that maybe there is something related with the gearbox that could avoid the retrofit

I have checked realoem.com with my VIN number CU00042 and I found that the SAT ECU apparently is compatible with my car
What I do not know is if tris is OK
