So I've seen coding for things that are already in my menus. Things like below (mostly at bimmertech coding):

tire temps/pressure
option to turn off daytime running lights
sport display (hp/tq dials)
compass or gps coordinates
pop trunk with the key
sport+
traffic information


there's others but I just wanted to throw a quick list together

Do other people have these options already available or is there something weird about my cars settings being available from the factory?

Some settings may be present in some markets and not others , some of that maybe regulatory requirements.
Ie in the us I think you have to click on a disclaimer for somethings , in the U.K. we don't so it will be down to things like that.
The sport+ mode is standard on the bigger engines (not sure of the exact list but for example it is present on the 540i but I don't think it is on a 520d for example)

And I guess some options are just not enable anywhere as bmw decided not to enable / show them for what ever reason.

These things may change during the models lifespan as it gets tweaked.

Why would anyone want to turn off the DRLs? They are not "nannies" and help avoid other cars hitting you.

The only one on your list that I would need/like to code is the trunk lid open/close with key fob. Factory allows it to open but not close. Simple coding fix otherwise everything we have in US version

Not sure I fully understand the problem. On US cars Daytime running lights can be set to be on or off via the iDrive. Sport display gauges can be turned on every time you go into Sport mode and can be set via iDrive, depending on what options you have (according to the manual). GPS coordinates also are available if Vehicle Location has been activated. Tire pressures are also available in the Tire Pressure Monitor section via iDrive. At least those four I found in the owner's manual. Didn't see anything about tire temps but maybe I missed it. --Bob

The air temperature setting was already enabled for my 2019 M550ix without any coding.

I don't think the OP as saying there is a problem, just that he saw these code-able items listed that are already on his car via settings and wondered why.

correct, just checking to see if things were updated on BMW's side when they saw certain things were being coded on previous years.

Different regions as well as some group lists of similar cars. For the latter, G012 did not have some functions standard that are now coded from factory if software updated or have newer vintage.

Thanks for clearing that up. I misunderstood the post.--Bob

My 2019 M550iX displays tire pressures and temperatures. No coding was needed to get this option.

Same thing. Same year and vehicle.

M550 should. I do not think the 530 does from factory.

F90 has ASS memory coded. G30 need this enabled aftermarket.

Where dis you see the code for the compass portion? Thanks.
