Do you not see the option in Bimmercode? I know it's an option on ID6 cars and it's pretty easy to find. Pretty sure it in simple mode.

The thing is that I have the ID7. There are a lot of different coding options in compare to the ID6 so I need someone who have done this in ID7.

Ok, so you are not seeing it, that is what I was asking.

I have ProTool and Bimmercode and I have an X5 with ID7 that I have not coded. I will plug in this weekend and have a look if I can remember. If it is do-able, ProTool can definitely do it.

Can you elaborate the difference between the B&W coding, and the Rolls Royce?

The "bongs" are different. The coding incorporates the RR bongs.

BMW own Rolls Royce. Their cars use the same iDrive systems. To differentiate, Rolls has their own unique sounds or chimes. Through coding, you can tell the system it’s a Rolls Royce. I personally am not a fan of changing the branding of a car to a different car. I’ve been listening to that BMW chime for 25 years. It’s a staple.

I lost gesture control confirmation noise when switching to the Rolls Royce sound theme.

On my ID6 it is under Headunit->Warning Chime

I think you might need an EVO headunit to use it:

2017 id6 NBT bimmercode showed it clearly. Tried it. Didn't like it. It's A BMW not a RR. I seem to remember that mini was there too

Oh, I thought it referring to the stereo (Bowers & Wilkens.)
