03/2023.53 Firmware

I have a 2022 M240i with ID7. Was at the dealer to replace a headlight with condensation that wouldn't resolve for 3 months. Anyway, they updated my firmware to version 03/2023.53. Not sure what changed. Not seeing or feeling anything obvious. Does anyone know? I did a search both here and on google and couldn't find anything although some people with other BMW models seem to have gotten a similar update version too.

I received a notification on the My BMW app for the new firmware, so I downloaded and installed it. As you mentioned, at first I didn't notice ANY "Feature Improvements". However, a short drive later, I discovered that some of my Bimmercode coding was gone. So I got out my iPad and recoded everything. All seemed well, until I discovered that, even though I had re-programmed it, the Auto Stop/Start delete no longer works. I thought that perhaps I had forgotten to hit the "Code" button, so I went back and coded it again. NO JOY!!! It seems like you can no longer permanently turn off that "feature". Of course the button on the console still works, but only as long as the engine is running. So you now will have to turn off the stupin Auto Start/Stop every time you drive the car. Thank you EPA and BMW electrification movement! Grrrrrr.
OK, so I just went out to the car and tried to recode the Auto Start/Stop. At first Bimmercode wouldn't let me code anything. I then checked and there was an Update waiting to be installed. After installing it, I then was able to recode the Auto Start/Stop function. Afterwards, I went for a little drive and it worked perfectly. Yay, Bimmercode! Ooops! My bad. It seemed to work in a short drive around my neighborhood, but perhaps the engine has to be warmed up before it works. Anyway, it now appears that as I said initially, the lates firmware from BMW seems to have killed our ability to code out the Auto Start/Stop function in Bimmercode!!!! Frustrating.

It doesn't but thanks for sharing. I assume my app doesn't show it since the dealer did the update...Also a previous update, which happened automatically, didn't tell me what was changed so not sure what's going on.
