I got it, long learning curve ahead....

 

Some of the screens I found. I still need to learn a whole lot.

 

Yeah, a lot of research but keep us updated. Can you put the car in dyno mode?

 

Maybe, there's a "rollenmodell" that may be that. I haven't got very far as I need a power source to keep the battery charged as the modules are written to.
I found this garage pilot and IPA-intelligent park assist that I want to activate. I had it into her cars but never used it, now I want it to work, maybe bc it's there and not activated. It seems that it uses the same LKA module.
Undiscovered field for me and the chance of messing it up is there.

 

Some stuff I found.
Under DME you can make it remember the last start stop configured always on (picture)

I ask found an option to turn on GPS in relation to the suspension, I presume for FAL

Particulate filter is listed, so it's coming one could presume. Remote start, hybrid drive are also listed. Park assist, garage pilot as I mentioned before.

Mirrorlink and HUD are listed there too...

 

Very interesting stuff. I have a cab so it would be great to be able to drop the top with the fob like the euro cars can from the factory. Yes there are aftermarket modules for this but the key fob would be so slick!

 

Hoping John is successful with all of the coding. From what I've read, non-US factory key fob Cab top functionality requires a european fob with the extra button, in addition to the coding. At least the mods4cars module allows the US key fob to work.

 

Actually the key fob for the US has a 4th connector on the board, just not a button on the outside. If that's a working connection, that's a different story. While the functionality of the top may be difficult to fully code without an European key fob, at least windows up and down should be feasible.
I have the smarttop, so the question is more academic for me, but we need to build a database for all of us, so I'll try to post results.

 

Thanks John, but get back to work on the damn Matrix headlights.........

 

On that, I think there's some calibration involved, beyond the coding alone. I really would like to get my hands on a shop manual.

 

RSW Speedworx in Green Brook NJ has a PIWIS3 and told me they have never tried to turn on the full function of the Matrix headlights but would attempt to do so if I pay for the tech's time.

Based on this as well as that I was successful in doing this with one of our BMW's (BMW's anti dazzle lights) I ordered the Matrix lights, and my car is due to arrive at the dealer in April.

 

Any indication of
- how much time?
- whether it would be successful?

 

I used a version that allowed for coding, v39.5 in my case.
On a quick session I managed to find options to enable keyboard on CarPlay with the car in motion, changed color of several items on the dashboard (speedo, wear brake symbol for example). There's an option to enable mirror Link, which is irrelevant to me. Lots of options regarding Android Auto. Also allowed for "testvideo" up to 200 km/h, which I think is a video in the SD card - to be tested and subsequently disabled.

Lots of options regarding extra menus, activations, colors, even the response time for things like the speedo (300ms). I enabled street view but I no longer have the connect services, I'll try that on the other car.

 

what does the speedo look like now?

 

I didn't change the color, just saw the options. Besides, I can't think of a better color as it is. It's a screen, vast options available. I'm taking it slow, changing options and seeing what happens. Easier this way to reverse in case of a screwup.

Interesting that there are choices on the options menu (where the option codes are) that allows for tire brand and tire size (255F and 315R described there along the smaller sizes). I wonder if that changes the PSM preset parameters.

I'm trying to find the track mode available for the GT3, not holding my breath on that one.
