X6M Option Coding in SF bay Area
Hi,
Does anyone know a dealer/shop in San Francisco Bay Area ( I live south bay) that does does coding to change some of the options (2014 X6M). I am looking at things like ones below and wondering about what they would cost. 1-4 are high priority others if reasonable price: 1 - Auto Trunk/Tailgate Closing 2 - Remove iDrive [ACCEPT] screen 3 - AutoFolding Mirrors 4 - Open/Close windows with Key FOB 5 - Auto Sunroof close when rain is detected 6 - Enable FogLamps with High Beams 7 - Video In Motion (CIC iDrive models only) Thanks Dennis

I filled out the form on the Alexshop web page twice and never heard from them.
I then found SF BMW Coding and filled in their form, initially contacted by Adrian but then after giving dates I could travel up the peninsula ( I live in Los Gatos,Ca) I never heard from him again. So it would appear no one is really interested in doing this, I have been checking out the coding forums to determine how hard this would be to do myself (I'm technical- jailbreak iPhone, play with Raspberry computer,etc) . I have an understanding of the basic process ( download config files change option, load back up) but was wondering if anyone could recommend a dcan cable. 2014 X6M Also anyone recently become a newbie at this and tips,suggestions, gotchas. Thanks Dennis

Opasha coded my 2015 X6 remotely. I bought the cable and then it took 30 minutes of his time. I'm not sure if it's possible for 2014, check with him. Very knowledgeable and nice guy. |

Update: ordered cable and software , I will check to see how hard this after I get them. If too difficult then will have to engage remote. Surprised I couldn't get it done locally.
