Third, it seems that on more recent I-STEPs and/or in more recent cars, just removing 5AP and VO coding as indicated is not enough to remove anti-dazzle decode on US-style Gx. But it is possible: see threads by Trojanlaw on this topic.
Oh I certainly would make sure I'm well versed before I started making coding changes on my car, that aren't simple like ones through BimmerCode. I'll read up on this stuff. First time dealing with coding, so while yes it is rudimentary for you, it is simply new for me. Thanks for the info.
I didn't imply insult by the term "rudimentary" — we all start somewhere. I implied the "required baseline understanding" meaning of that term.
