2012 X5 Sport with heated steering wheel and shift paddles

After installing the X5M steering wheel, everything worked.
The next day I noticed when attempting to use the volume buttons it would bring up the phone menu instead. The only way to increase or lower the volume was directly from the radio knob.
Swapped over the multi function buttons from the old wheel. All the multi function buttons including the volume buttons work. However the DCT paddles don't not work.
The DME is showing an error code for the shift paddles, inoperable.
Is there a modification I need to do to get this working?

I'm not real surprised your getting an error after switching the buttons, but I am surprised the volume buttons didn't work right?
I swapped from M Sport to X5M steering wheel and everything worked perfectly, same as most people who've done this swap. Obviously the only things that don't sync up are the 2 buttons (///M button and the music button below it) and what they control, but everything still works.
Good luck sorting that out. Can't say I've heard/read this issue on this forum below, but maybe if you searched you'd find something
