Starting a thread with all the instructions to use Thinkdiag to code/access useful infos in our cars.
As a reminder, for now, if you want to do coding, you need an Android device. The iOS app has limited capabilities.

I'll start with accessing the Overrevs report:
In DME you go to read datastream then datastream1 then check operating hours and overrevs (1,2...6).

Windows going up/down when you keep pressing the key to lock/unlock (courtesy of boldish on this forum)

1. System Selection -> Front-End Electronics -> Code/brush Hiding -> Rule Coding -> Coding value -> Coding value_2 -> "Coding value--Comfort functions--Window comfort open" Set to true
2. System Selection -> Front-End Electronics -> Code/brush Hiding -> Rule Coding -> Coding value -> Coding value_2 -> "Coding value--Comfort functions--Window comfort close" Set to true
3. System Selection -> Front-End Electronics -> Code/brush Hiding -> Rule Coding -> Coding value -> Coding value_1 -> "Coding value--Comfort functions--Comfort functions via door lock" (At the very bottom) Set to true
4. System Selection -> Front-End Electronics -> Code/brush Hiding -> Rule Coding -> Coding value -> Coding value_1 -> "Coding value--Comfort functions--Comfort functions via remote control" (At the very bottom) Set to true

thanks for doing this --

keep "em coming

Nice to see another option.

We have a couple threads for this already

I know nothing about Android devices. Will something like this do the trick?

bokh

that's exactly the one I got for Thinkdiag.
Google Play Store will say the app is not compatible but there's a way to force it. Will post later

Tier1Terrier

Why would it not be compatible and need to be forced? Is it because of the device not having the necessary specs? The last thing I want to do is cheap out on a device and end up bricking my car.

bokh

Android version or something. I sideloaded the app and it worked for me. Literally takes 3 clics in 20s.
You can try another device if you are not comfortable with it. I just have no idea what the requirements are with Android.

Just ordered

99-911

I'm starting to regret buying a PIWIS with all these features being accessible on this device..
nonetheless, kindly add these to your list:

- coolant temp gauge (real time)
- flashing brake lights
- GT3 steering calibration
- heated steering wheel

bokh

For GT3 steering software there's a whole thread. starting from around post #160 there's explanations on Thinkdiag.

There should be two options with the top one opening a drop down that has 10 or so options.

I have one of these I bought about a year ago that I never ended up using (because I have a Google pixel). I took it out of the box and turned it on, but never set it up and put it back in the box where it now sits on the shelf. I would factory reset it and If anyone is interested I'll be glad to let it go to a forum member for $60 free shipping to the lower 48 states. My partner will be stoked to get rid of some garage clutter. Please DM me if interested.

To get the real reading for cool temperature:
Instrument Cluster =>Code/Brush Hiding => Rule Coding => then look for Coolant temperature Characteristics curve
You will get 16 items split in 2 parts:
8 items "Coolant temperature characteristic curve--Real coolant temperature--X n" (n from 1 to 8)
8 items "Coolant temperature characteristic curve--Displayed coolant temperature--X n" (n from 1 to 8)
You have to take the number set for each of the "Real" items and set it to each equivalent "Displayed" item.

For those who changed steering software to GT3 and getting warning on the dash (early 991s) I found the trick to silence the warning.
Keep in mind that this trick silences all warnings related to the Electric Steering but not failures (you still get messages about failures).

Instrument Cluster =>Code/Brush Hiding=>Rule coding => you get a list of Warning Configurations (0 to 5 if I remember correctly)
In one of those Warning Configurations (I think it was the 3rd) you'll need to look for item number 121 (Warning Configuration --EPS warnings--Power steering fault warning (121). You set that to 0.
