Update wipes out B&W coding?
What gives? Or am I stupid and can’t find the setting anymore

Basic cat and mouse between BMW / Bimmercode. Not unusual... grateful to be able to code at all. True that 8.5 (for sure 9.0) is locked up?
Sidenote: A macro mode to recode wouldn't be hard for them to add.. probably just a liability. |

No cat and mouse, BMW will make changes to the car firmware and config to meet their customer support and bug rectification needs, I don’t think they pay any attention to companies such as Bimmercode or what effect the BMW updates will have on 3rd party config changes.

Cat turns up, doing cat stuff, and the cheese is all the sudden more of a hassle. Cat and mouse game. |

The only way to not expect to have unsupported changes overwritten is to not have updates done. |

Well poop the BMW update even resets their own settings, honey badger don't give a sh*t about nobody...you, me, or themselves. I have to reconfigure a bunch of stuff in the boss' X5 after an update, and tell it she wants remote start active again, not just ventilation. That's one of about 8 I have to go back in and change. Rather annoying actually because it's somehow MY fault her car isn't acting as expected and her fanny warmer isn't up to temp when Mrs. Schumacher is ready to take off. Anyhow thanks for the therapy session!

Unrelated: What connection type are you guys/gals using when connection with Enet? I bought an ODB/Enet adapter and everything seems to work (light Ion the adapter) but no dice. I’ve made sure to give BimmerCode LAN access. Edit: Answered my own question and leaving this for any future readers. The eNet adapter I bought was not compatible with the G-Series. Make sure you double-check approved adapters on the Bimmercode website. Live and learn...

I just got my update. It messed up the MyBMW app, but “updating all apps” option fixed it. I haven’t done the B&W sound profile but do need to find the high beam settings again.
