Have you coded the full euro headlight functionally with the splitting high beams on the G07? I’d be seriously interested.

Yes, not 100% sure if it work as exactly as European version.
But, it does work.

Side note, if you are the POTUS, I have to charge you 100x more than my regular rate.

I've just realized that we're not in the Coding sub-forum and coding discussion may be brushing against the rules in the General sub-forum, Apologies, got carried away. So perhaps we should take coding discussions to the Coding sub forum.

But in the meantime, just a friendly reminder that the car has to be in Diagnostic Mode when coding to ensure most ECUs are on :-).

Thanks for confirming, Adaptive lights work quite well for me, I am more interested in coding lane change assist which for some strange reason is not enabled in this part of world.

Lane change assist in regions that don't natively enable it does appear to require FDL coding and that, in turn, does require a "launcher" setup (E-SysX or TM's Launcher Pro).

Can this be done with the engine running? Is there any way to verify it was successful aside from driving in the proper conditions for it to operate? Thanks!

Yes, this can, and perhaps even should, be done with engine running (should because you never want to run out of battery). Out of the common ECUs, only DME cannot be coded with engine running since it itself controls the engine. The other similar dependency (not applicable here, but just FYI) is that HVAC functions cannot be coded with HVAC off in the car.

I am not aware of a way to verify anti-dazzle functionality without actually spending time observing it in real life. In my case, for example, I knew within 24 hours that something was different, but it took about of a week of focused observation to be sure it was behaving as expected. In fact, because auto-highbeams functionality became more conservative in 11/2019.xx relative to previous versions, it will now be even harder/longer to tell that it's doing its thing and doing it well.

Great. I followed your guide and it all went through without error so I’ll just observe. Thanks!

Just spotted this.

Lane change doesn't need fdl coding or launcher.

Just use esys to remove 8TR from FA and VO Code SAS, HU_MGU and BDC (7083)

Thumbs down ?

just did my oil change and first software update to 11.2019.40 - see attached pic, my Automatic high beams now have to be paid for and simply not working as a function, its part of my x5 standard package and worked well for 12 months.

Jesus, what now BMW!!?? Take it back to the dealer and demand they fix it and apologize to you and humanity. This is ridiculous and I don't recall seeing anyone mention this before and have not seen that "purchase" message before.

When the auto high beams are on do you get the blue high beam indicator on the dash when headlights are set to auto? I’ve never seen it come on, even driving on isolated countries roads.

My wife’s 650 has this feature and yes the blue indicator comes on when the system activates the high beams.

Yes it does, also on G05. Strange that you don't see it!

Verify that you have the High Beam Assistant turned on and not just the auto headlights, they are two different options.

I have been researching this topic for over a week and it is still unclear to me whether launcher is needed to "code" the BDC_BODY3, HU_MGU, FLM2 [43], FLM2 [44], KAFAS4 or is the latest Esys sufficient and what version of PSDzData lite is being used? I did this 3-4 years ago on a 2016 M4 and it worked but the software changes with the trimmed files and difficulties receiving a token brings lots of questions. Thanks for your help. JM

Since you can remove the anti dazzle decoding option in FA and then VO code, you do not need a launcher (neither Launcher Pro nor ESysX), just plain ESys. You Code those ECUs, not "Code NCD". Latest version of psdzdata is always best, Lite is all that is needed. Is that enough to get you going?

LEXXM3,

Thanks so much! That was the info I was looking for. I will make sure to save my files before I start. Easier than other posts make it out to be. If that works then probably the easiest way to change options in the new models is to use Bimmercode for the "FDL" coding like Autostop/start etc and to use your method for the head lights if the car is so equipped. That way you don't need to fool with launcher or tokens for simple things. JM

Bimmercode doesn't have access to all the modules so you'll be limited in what FDL you can code.
