<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First of all, what does ISTA/P stands for?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It stands for <b>I</b>ntegrated <b>S</b>ervice <b>T</b>echnical <b>A</b>pplication/<b>P</b>rogramming. ISTA/P is used to process all coded, programmed and enable-dependent control modules in BMW Group vehicles. In short, it's what BMW calls their ECU software.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To check the version of your ECU software, you have to use E-Sys to connect to your car and go to "VCM" -> Read I-Steps and check the version number shown under "I-Step (currently)". </span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Recently, I just received my front brake pad service alert on my BMW. It is triggered when there is about 2000km mileage left.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On your iDrive, you will receive this alert to warn you about brake pad going to be worn out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To reset this alert after you had replaced your brake pads:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1) Press and hold the odometer button. It will turn 0 km mileage and then goes back to previous mileage again. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2) Keep holding the button for about 10 to 15 seconds.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3) Release the button and press the button again to select the options:</span><br />

<div dir="ltr">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Obviously, you need to ensure that your steering wheel is equipped with the paddle shift as well. To be equipped with paddle shift, you can replace your current steering wheel with a M Sport steering wheel with paddle shift or purchase the paddle shift and drill some holes on your steering wheel (Ouch!) to attach it. The "sports" steering wheel that comes as default does not provide the option to retrofit your paddle shift nicely. You have to purchase a different set of steering wheel that comes with paddle shift as standard.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As for the Sports automatic transmission, you will need to set this mode in the EGS module. This will suppose to give you a sportier ride with quicker gear shift at certain RPM which I really need your feedback once you had enable it in your car. I couldn't find much information on what this 2TB option do to your F45/F46 and need some real feedback on how it performs.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Recently, I just coded a F46 equipped with BMW ANTI-THEFT ALARM WITH REMOTE CONTROL </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">(VO code 302). Right after I finished with the coding, my pal locked the car and the car alarm was triggered. This surprises me as I didn't expect the alarm to sound when the car is lock and suspect that the coding has screwed it up. I went on to revert back all the changes but the alarm still goes off once the car is locked. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">After fumbling for an hour, it was discovered that the OBD cable has to be <b>DETACHED</b> from the socket before the car can lock without triggering the alarm. This is a new lesson that I learned today and I hope you will find it useful to know!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once you have your Cruise Control switch physically installed, you will need to enable your Cruise Control feature in your car through "VO coding". Note that the procedure is also applicable to enable "Enhanced Bluetooth" feature or other VO code procedure. The modules that are required to be coded will be different though. For example, "Enhanced Bluetooth" will require HU_ENTRYNAV module only.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">In order to avoid any VCM update errors (this does not affect your coding), go to the top of ESYS and click Options > Settings > Options tab. <b>UNCHECK</b> both check boxes -> "Update VCM after TAL execution" and "Update MSM after TAL execution."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">8) To enable Cruise Control for F45/F46/F48, you will need to VO code these 4 modules for F45/F46/ F48:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">1) BDC_BODY</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">2) HU_ENTRYNAV</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">3) KOMBI (or BKOMBI)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">9) Go to "Coding" section, click "Read ECU" button on the right and then right click on the above-mentioned modules and select "Code". This will enable the settings required for your Cruise Control. Note that the engine need not be switched off for this operation to work successfully.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">10) Test your Cruise Control switch to ensure that it has been enabled successfully. Congratulations!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">11) It is recommended to remove the VO Code after the coding has been performed.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">If VO code is something that you don't prefer to modify, you can perform FDL codings only as such to enable Dynamic Cruise Control:</span><br />

<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>1) Can I upgrade my screen to 8.8 inch without changing the BMW head unit or iDrive?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Yes, you can upgrade your screen to 8,8 inch with a much higher resolution of 1280 x 480. However, if you do not have navigation in your head unit, it may not be that useful. Original 6.5 inch has a resolution of 800 x 600.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>2) What are the differences between Navigation, Navigation Plus and Navigation Professional package sold by BMW for F45/F46?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Business Navigation System package: 6.5 inch screen , Navigation Head Unit (EntryNav), standard iDrive controller and 32GB flash memory (VO code: 6UN)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Business Navigation Plus System package: 8.8 inch screen, Navigation Head Unit (EntryNav) , touch iDrive controller and 32GB flash memory (VO code: 6UP)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Navigation Professional: 8.8 inch screen, Navigation Head Unit with DVD player and 200 GB Hard disk (VO code: 609)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>3) Can I upgrade my basic media unit (without Navigation) to EntryNav (Navigation Head unit) on my car?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Yes, you can do it. This will involves updating your MAP(which is based on ROUTE maps) with new FSC code to activate the map and installing the GPS antenna. I am doing some further research on it and will update my result in future postings.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 1: Rotate the steering wheel to your left:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg74tCaYZDhrcYQrH4Aq9QdR9kALYEzgJARNONZ4UJiB6cPDHfdpjS1zeA17-4oWvmlCnyO0qfknyVc_ZY_D-I_J87g7yZ3l07HXAruz9Apc6FGO_46CgjWdxx1QMlz2E8qljmgTVAonS0/s1600/Step1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><img border="0" height="225" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg74tCaYZDhrcYQrH4Aq9QdR9kALYEzgJARNONZ4UJiB6cPDHfdpjS1zeA17-4oWvmlCnyO0qfknyVc_ZY_D-I_J87g7yZ3l07HXAruz9Apc6FGO_46CgjWdxx1QMlz2E8qljmgTVAonS0/s400/Step1.jpg" width="400" /></span></a></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 2: There is a hole just on the steering wheel just behind the speed limiter switch. Use your Torx screw driver to reach out to the hole behind to unscrew the torx screw. You may need to adjust your steering wheel to full extension mode to use your Torx screw driver more effectively. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Once the screw is out, you will be able to pull out the switch slowly by hand. <i>Note: Be prepared! The horn may accidentally be triggered no matter how careful you are!</i></span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 7: Put back the cover and the 3 x Phillips screws. Use a new cable tie to tie the wires back as well.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 8: Push the switch back slowly to the steering wheel. You may want to put some tape protection besides the edge of the air bag/horn before performing this operation to avoid scratches. Otherwise, you can always use a fine sandpaper to sand off those scratches.</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> </span><i style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Note: Be prepared! The horn may accidentally be triggered no matter how careful you are!</i><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 9: Looks completed? Well not quite so. You still need to replace the right hand side switch as well! The "Res" button on the Cruise Control switch will become the speed limiter function if you did not change the right hand side switch. Test it if you want!</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 11: Perform the exact same steps as mentioned previously above. Note that there are two connectors connected to this switch. It is harder to pull out as it is held tightly by the black connector.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 15: Note how short this black connector can be as highlighted in yellow circle below. <span style="color: red;"> How can you ever attached this connector back to the switch in such confined space? Does that means you have to take out the air bag??? </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: orange;"><br /></span></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-small;">Warning: This is the most difficult part of the operation!

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The fortunate answer is no! You don't have to take out the air bag. Simply pull the black connector together with the wire using only a tiny bit of your strength to extend it by few millimeters. Don't pull it too hard until it gets disconnected from the steering wheel! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">With the extended length, you will be able to plug it back to the switch securely and can push it back to the steering wheel. It takes some skill to do that but it's definitely possible.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 16: There you have it! A Cruise Control switch enabled car? </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Step 17: Not yet, you still have some coding to do! Perform VO coding by adding option <b>544</b> and then perform "Code" to all modules within your ECU. Remember to switch off your engine before doing that as it involves coding the DME module which requires engine to be stopped.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The whole process will takes about 5 to 10 mins. Lots of errors will start popping up! Once the coding has completed (With some errors reported on the modules in your E-Sys), wait for about 5 mins before starting your engine. Press the cruise control switch button and presto!

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Also, note that F45/G46 LED door slot is smaller and you will need to trim off the plastic in order to fit it in. Nevertheless, it still worth spending more than 200 dollars over it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I will also recommend that you use a plastic pry open tool to take out your existing light projector to avoid any scratches as shown below.
