There are quite a few of options that is not coded, but available in the cars electronics. That's why many people have their cars "coded" in order to enable some of the sleeping options

The SAT is a costly option. One that comes with a different shifter design and the steering wheel with paddle shifters.

One of the reasons why it's not coded, is that BMW (or any manufacturer) make more money by offering some of these things as add on options when you buy a new car.
