New BimmerCode Automatic Seat Heating Option?

Anyone else see that there are new automatic seat heating options in BimmerCode and actually code it? If so, do they work?

I miss that on my '21 X3 with ID7 "lite" you were also able to have the front passenger seat come on automatically at a set temperature as well just like the driver's seat. Not sure why that feature isn't available on the G05.

After coding this, under Seat and Steering Wheel Heating, I see checkboxes for both driver and passenger, however the passenger checkbox and temp selector does not work, so I don't think the hardware is there.

Now I can set two driver seat heating rule, one under Climate Control Rules and the other under Seat and Steering Wheel Heating, i.e.
below 60F turn on lowest heat
below 50F turn on highest heat

The driver side seat and steering wheel automatic heat activation was always there for me on my 45e, but the passenger and rear seats wasn't. I had to get my TCB replaced yesterday and they updated my iDrive to 07/2024.55 along with the replacement, and the coding for automatic heat activation works on all 4 seats now.

I’ve always had the automatic heating on steering and seat at set temperature.

This is through the climate rules on idrive.

Yes on my 2022 LCI G01 X3 climate rules does not auto turn on seat heating for passenger, but coding the seat and steering wheel heating menu enabled that and, for driver, two seat setting temperatures. There's probably another code to have the seat heating turn off when it increases above the set temp.
