Customize MINI Settings with Bimmercode App

I can't stand Tesla's tone (probably bc I can't stand Teslas).

 

You & me both, but hey ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

Planning to buy Bimmercode for 3 items mainly

1. Auto fold mirrors without having to hold the lock for a few seconds
2. Start in default Green mode - more for the lighter steering feel. Am I right that steering is lighter in Green, or is that just my imagination
3. Remember last setting of AC recirculate being switched on

Anyway to set regen to low by default? Will these 3 be workable at least?

 

An unrelated question. If in low regen and one presses the brake pedal does the regen max out and then does it apply the friction brakes or does it directly apply the friction brakes? In my other ev other than in regen level 0, it always maxes out regen braking before applying the friction brakes.

 

Has anyone been able to code the high beam assist to automatically turn on at startup? With the time change it’s a great feature driving home from work in the dark, but slightly annoying to have to turn on every time you get back in the car.

 

The mirror closing thingie - will it work from remote as well as from the door handle? And, it already does fold the mirrors when you hold for a few seconds. With the coding does that become instantaneous?

I saw a post a few pages above that said it does not work consistently with comfort access? Not sure what comfort access is but I think its using the door handle button?

 

Yes, the closing change impacts both the remote and door handle.

 

add to that list getting rid of the warning message when you turn on the car.

 

I need to figure out how to turn off all the startup beeps again. I lost my bimmercode changes yesterday when I got that 3G recall, and I reprogrammed most of them, but I didn't see that option yesterday. I had forgotten how annoying it is starting the car with the default settings.

 

Anyone knows if it is possible to reverse the direction of the iDrive jog dial (up down thru a list) in the native menus?

In my Mini, rotating clockwise scrolls up thru a list in the native menus, and it is reversed in CarPlay. I am reading that in BMW iDrive, rotating clockwise is scrolling down thru a list in native menus.

My goal is to have it matched between native and CarPlay. Thanks.

 

Someone should post a tutorial on it. I did mine yrs ago. I can't seem to find it all online anymore.
