one of the parameters is C_STA_ALC_MaxDauerFolgefahrtSpurueberbrueckung: 25s . I have tried changing it to FF (255s) but it doesn't work. There must be some other hidden switch.

hello. My bmw g30 comes equipped with 5AL active protection. I have noticed other orders of another vehicle it comes equipped with 5AV active guard. the latter requires some extra sensor or just coding in the fa would be enough or I simply don't need it. My vin B050573. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards.

I coded my car using BimmerCode for very simple things such as rear fog light activation, emergency braking taillight activation, changing chime sounds to Rolls Royce tones, etc.

The Level 2 Drivers Assistance functions were not working properly, so I took it into the dealer yest. My car is still under warranty, but the dealer said that the coding was interfering with the Drivers Assistance functions/spitting out fault codes. So, they charged me $400 (1.5 hrs. of labor) to flash the ECU/reset the car to factory default settings.

Has anyone experienced this?

You can try coding it but G30 mostly comes with 5AL

[Twintortuga]

There are bmw g30 that come only 5AV and my g30 5AL. What difference is there from one code to the other?

Assuming it's a G30, what year is your car? Were Drivers Assistance functions working properly before you coded it? Did you try an iDrive reset before taking the car in? Did re-flashing the ECU fix the problem with Drivers Assistance? If your answers are "yes" to all three questions, this is the first that I've heard of this happening from basic coding. Assuming you didn't use BimmerCode Expert Mode and make some sort of mistake, I can only guess that BimmerCode may not have had the correct mapping for your previous iDrive software version. Now that you've updated your iDrive software, chances are good that the coding will work now, but try it at your own risk. Be sure to keep backups, test immediately after coding, and revert any changes that cause problems.

5AL Active Protection(DYNAMIC SAFETY)
5AV Active Guard
There G30 that come with both these option enabled. They are different systems.

Hi guys,

It is for sure codeable (deactivation) but, I have found a way around to change the deactivation interval in seconds. This way this feature will stay on and will be safer than without.

I am working on it right now. I'll post later on today the parameters that needs to be changed. Coding will be available for pre-lci & lci models

Hi guys,

A little update of the process going on in the background.

I did the coding and it did work BUT, I really DO NOT RECOMMEND you doing this. The car is simply not made for it and I doesn't keep the car in a straight line so well after coding it. It literally wanders too much!

This didn't happen before coding the car. The car felt much more stabilized and secure. You just have to tap the steering wheel or put a very light pressure with your thigh to the steering wheel while allowing it to rotate freely.

I have reverted the coding on my own car. Do this at your own risk!

Because of the fact that this coding will possibly leave you in a risk, I will not post the coding steps here to prevent everyone coding it and regarding it afterwards because of an accident!

The members who however consider to try it out, send me a private message please.

PS: I have a pre-lci G30. It would maybe function better on lci models. I didn't tested it yet on lci models

Greets,

The lane assist is definitely improved on the LCI
The improvements that I saw are :-

Keeps to the middle of the lane , pre LCI tended to bias towards the left (rhd drive car)

Does not take the exit lane when in lane 1. Pre LCI would choose exist lane on a number of occasions

Seems a bit smoother generally

Sounds great. PM me if you want to code it than.

Thanks but I’ll pass on that

BMW_E_F_G PM'd you about testing it out

[Twintortuga]

Hi send me the lines to code it. I imagine it works with the Kafas camera

[patriquez]

Hi there! Any update on this coding and how it works? The shut off time is too short, just a bit more will help a lot. But if it makes the system unstable... not worth it. Hope to hear!

Hi,

I've done the testing and coding but, I would really NOT do it. The coding works but, the cars wanders too much. Much much more than when this option is still activated properly. So I actually reverted this to it's original parameters. If you would like to test it out. PM me please.

Hi I sent a PM that might have been buried. I would like to try it out on my LCI '21 M550i and report back. I also just picked up a '24 M8 signed up for bimmerpost.

This was being talked about in another thread, hardware option vs coding

Hi Guys,

After service repeairs my mirror blind sector indication doesn't work. With bimmerlink i found this error:
Rear radar sensor near range right
1 error
020808: Coding: Control unit is not coded
Can anyone help to rectify it.

[mimoon]

If my car has 5AT, 4T8, 508 PDC, 5AC, 8TF, it is enough for it to stop itself when parking in reverse ?
