Bimmecode failed, car bricked and wont start
Can someone help? 2018 G30 540, built in Sept 2017, was coding video in motion, after sending the code, all of sudden, the entire car gone crazy, 4-5 warning messages showing on the iDrive, wiper going up and down, engine won't start.

Wait for the app to clear the codes.. its part of the process.. If not then just go onto the back and re-code from the back up.

Thanks. I tried restoring to the backup, same result, car is completely dead. I disconnect the battery and will let the car sit overnight and see how will it go (while I don’t expect it would make any difference)

Car remained dead for a couple of days (can not even lock the car, can not release electronic hand brake, no lights on dashboard, not crank when pushing the start button), was going to get it towed, but decide to jump start the car before making the call, the first few attempts of jump start still failed (still no crank), decided to let it sit for a few minutes with jump start cable connected to another running vehicle, came back, car had a crank and engine started, so I guess it was a low/dead battery.
