"Enable video and DVD while driving. This is only possible if the car supports watching TV or playing DVDs while standing. (codable in CCC)"

Do I just put a DVD in to see or is it an upgraded program from the dealer?

Thanks again

the dvd while driving is a extra $15 additional in the idrive unlocking.

Thank you for the reply as well, my concern is paying the $15 for something I may not be able to use, not that $15 is a make it or break it deal, I'm just trying to make sure it will be useful.
Thanks again

I used it once and never again lol. Only useful thing was the disabling of the warning screen upon start up.

Thats about all I have noticed that I would change as well.
Thank you.

Yes, there is a single blink(IIRC) and 5 blink option.
I don't remember which area to look, sorry, but I'm sure someone will ch Me in, I can look shortly and get back if no one else does.

One-touch turn signal function
• 1
• 3
• 5
Number of turn signals when tapping the turn signal. If available, please activate this option for the different keys as well. In some cases, this option also needs to be enabled in the iDrive. (codable in FRM)

I hope that helps!

Meaning can I just buy the Carly and Pro app and be good to go without much figuring out?

Beamer, their web page tells about the code functions available. Also, once you have the app its pretty straight forward in the code section.

Cheers

Can anyone help with this error message?

Trying to get smog ready. Only sensor I have that's not in ready mode is the O2 sensor. Which part of the drive cycle do I have to do for this?

Thank you.

I fell ill for a couple of days, so please bare with me about the delay.
Redliner explained it perfectly, couldn't say it any better.

No worries, thank you, Sadly, I think I may have caught what you had...

You're welcome!

Feel your pain...this flew is so annoying.

I was poking around on the app and I couldn't locate which software update I have on my M3, do any of you know where to look, or is it even available? Or, is this something the dealer can only do, I was considering getting in on the DINAN software sale.
Thanks!

Does anyone know if Carly can reset air bag light?
I want to remove my heavy passenger seat just for track days and I am sure that light will come up
vsix, I hope you know the answer to this

It will damn sure light up!

Datka, safety features as some SRS airbag lights are excluded from coding support by Carly. You'll be able to erase them but they will pop up.
Sorry bud.

Can you explain how you got to check emissions with the app?
Do you have a tune? Or did you flash back to stock?
I need to smog too.
Thanks.

Thanks.

It is under OBD functions. Flash back to stock. All the sensors did not go into ready mode until I was on the stock tune, even though my tuner said otherwise.

Has anyone tried installing Carly on more than one device? I had it purchased and installed 2 years ago. Switched phones in the meantime and when I tried to install the app on the new phone, it wanted me to buy it again.
