... Information provided by Shawn. Thanks.

If you have E-Sys, just Read SVT and see if KAFAS ECU is present.
But, generally speaking, if you have no LDW and you have no SLI, then you have no KAFAS, unless you have a very early build F10, which is before they had the cheaper standalone FLA Camera for HBA Only cars.

Great. Glad it worked for you.

I presume you are aware that you can code the other lights to come on too. Like main beams, low beams, license plate, fog lights, etc... you can light up the car like a Christmas tree.

Yay!

Just saw the cheat sheet and will code the fogs to come on with my flashers.

I think licence plate comes on as standard but will check it and code it if otherwise.

What other goodies do you suggest?

There is plenty to play with....

I have done the below and few more that I can't remember...

-Auto Start Stop Memory
-Comfort Closing Mirrors
-Comfort Opening Windows
-Radio Off on Door Open
-Boot Lid Close from Driver button
-Daylight Running Lights (rear)
-Welcome Lights - Fog
-Welcome Lights TimeOut
-High Beam Auto-Activation
-Video in Motion
-Navigation Route Preview
-Navigation Route Magnet
-Navigation Auto Zoom
-Acoustic Lock Signal
-Auto Headlight Sensitivity (not sensitive)
-Seat Heating Remember (always)
-Set Active Cruise Distance to 2

Do you need any specific options on your car to enable the "Active Cruise Distance"?

If you have Active Cruise Control, you would notice that when you activate this, it defaults to Setting 3 (i.e distance from car in front set to 3 bars). I found 3 bars to be a bit too much, and I would always manually set the distance to 2 bars by the buttons the wheel.

Coded to be default to 2 bars now...

How early does it need to be to get a KAFAS camera instead of the FLA?

My build date is 02/2010.

Not really sure... and I doubt anyone can really answer this, unless they have direct access to BMW manufacturing information.

I guess the only way to confirm is what Shawn has suggested; i.e. connect via and read your SVT

Fox530 · 07-02-2014, 02:29 PM

Best I get a cable ordered!

HI GSP, been meaning to come to you for some time now but good I did not as my car just came back from a full firmware update. I now have the new navigation functions as per your pics earlier in the thread.

When would be a good weekend for you? Are you around this weekend?

That's great news that you have the updated firmware and the new nav features.

Unfortunately, I am out this weekend, then out Wed-Mon (09-14).

I am doing a session for 2 persons on Monday evening (07th July) though; so if you wish to come along, you are welcome.

Alternatively, we can hook up sometime after the 14th...

izozzy · 07-03-2014, 12:00 PM

Gsp would you mind if I tag along on the 7th?

Amdb9 · 07-04-2014, 07:17 AM

Thanks What time are you meeting on Monday eve?

gspannu · 07-04-2014, 08:17 AM

Hi everyone,

Since we now have multiple members willing to come in on Monday; may I suggest that we move this to a weekend instead?

We will not have enough time on Monday evening.

As you would all appreciate that coding does take time; and since most of you are coming around first time, I'm sure you all want to be sure of what is being done and to learn.

The reason I do these sessions is to share knowledge and expand the coding community.

I suggest that we have pick a weekend instead; we will all have more time and can relax a little too.

My suggestions are:
19 July am session
26 July am session
27 July pm session

Will go with the majority....

Please appreciate that I do this in my spare time was a hobby and as a free service. I try and accommodate as many people I can in the limited time I have available.

Apologies, to all who had already agreed to come in on Monday.

No worries. If you around this area some other time, let me know and I will see if we can work something out.

yes, any OBDII connector cable will work.
You will need E-Sys software, a license file and the appropriate PSZ data files and off you go.... happy coding.
