I was one of the unlucky ones today re: NBT coding too. My car is a Sep 2013 but had the latest software update from the dealer last week as part of a Nav fix. Seems this is the issue.

Gspannu took my config details before I left. Hopefully this is fixable, read a thread elsewhere today that seems to indicate a change that may inhibit coding for new builds......lets see. Everything would appear to be hackable - it just takes time!

oh ok that may be the case then if both mine and izozzy's car are only just out the factory and probably have the same software as you have updated to.

Let's just hope it's cracked soon!

[izozzy]

325_bucks i presume you dont need my vin anymore?

[325_bucks]

not really, but if you want to send it then I can at least compare and see if you also have listed what i do.

[gspannu]

I've written to a few people trying to figure out why the latest builds are failing with VO coding (i.e. adding EBT)

.... will update as soon as we have a solution.

What's the build dates you've been having problems with? My car is Oct 14 build and adding EBT went OK.

December 2014

Which cafd fileset are you using?

[325_bucks]

no idea, thats a question fro Gspannu

[Simo_UK]

Thanks Gspannu and Xenon for looking into this further.
Agreed, definitely a question for Gspannu above.
However, my build is Sept 20013 - but had a software upgrade last week. Failed on mine too.

[325_bucks]

I didn't do an update but I assume that mine might have had the latest software anyway. It seems to be the update that is causing problems then.

[makkan00]

It might have to do with latest daten files.

Or BMW may have changed VO code for EBT.

Out of interested, did any of you manage to get launch control activated and fully working (especially LCI cars)?

[325_bucks]

Was on my list but never got round to it.

I know on the latest cars, 6NR is no longer listed although the Apps are still available as standard now, so they have changed something but don't know enough to know what.

You are still on the latest (or at least equivalent to Dec 2014 build) ISTA version as your car was updated by your dealer.

I am getting suggestions that v54.3 is failing for some FDL coding, and the earlier version v54.1 may be more suitable.

... will look into this more, once I'm back from travel.

I think the latest v54.3 psz data files is an issue. However, as I understand it, v54.2 and v54.3 has an issue with FDL coding and not VO coding. VO updates should still work.

Will have to figure this VO failing out

Your car has the latest ISTA/P build; hence the same issues as with few other cars.

Once, we figure out the reason (and hopefully a solution!); everyone's car can get sorted.

I used 54.1

I am slowly coming to the conclusion that this might be the problem. I have also had some feedback from an 'expert' that 54.3 is not behaving very well for FDL coding either.

I guess we need to use v54.1 instead of v54.3 to see if that fixes this VO coding issue.

I will need some volunteers to test this out.

So, any of the 3 members (whose EBT coding failed) willing to plan another trip to my place - to give this a go?

Im up for it. Can maybe do an evening this week or Sunday again?

If not then let me know your availability and I will work around that

Happy to help. I'm local so could make Winchester tomorrow, possibly Basingstoke Thurs evening, or this weekend.
