You're basically modifying the vehicle configuration; enabling features that are regions specific or hidden.

This does not void you warranty in any way as these are options that are readily available on your car that just need to be enabled or disabled.

Some of these would include:

Turning off the amber side marker on your headlights when the projectors are on
Making your Tail Lights DRL
Allow mirrors to fold when you hold the BMW logo on the key fob

You know the two horizontal L-shape bars on your tail lights? You can make them stay on at all times as opposed to just when your projectors are on.

I coded mine to turn on since it makes the car look more alive during the day.

I didn't know folding mirrors we even available in Canada? I'm assuming this must require hardware updates too - right.
In any case, all the coding options sounds interesting? How do I learn more, and more importantly where can I get it done?

early productions for E90s had motors inside the mirrors as well but no physical button. mine was like that

so if you have an early model of the F30 and you dont have a switch for folding mirrors you might physically have the motor in the mirror and it can be activated through coding and the only thing you can do to it is have it fold and unfold when you lock and unlock the doors

If you have a 328i Classic Line with XDrive, you will need the lighting package to have the folding mirrors. I thought it was standard on all F30s also but found out the hard way when I tried to code someone car and found out later that there was no button for the mirrors on his door panel

shouldve tried to enable the motor under fem body and code folding mirrors to see if it works

I coded my uncles 328 xdrive modern line and even though he didn't have the button to fold I got it to fold and unfold with fob
