Great grill, bro! Best regards from Rossia. I want this grill too
Thank you for this great video! Now I am convinced i gotta change my grill. Do you happen to know if the LCI mirrors are compatible with the non facelift model?
Hello Andrei, thanks a lot I really appreciate your comment, grill are a really nice and cheap upgrade, it completely changed the look for me, about side mirrors I can check this out for you after work, I’ll try to leave you another comment so you can check it out later. Really appreciate the input thanks again 💪
Vielen Dank. Sehr hilfreich 👍
Do i need to purchase full version on bimmerapp to activate footlight while driving?
@@arianitmiftari5593 so, basically the app won’t allow you to do any change before purchase, u can scroll trough everything you can do, unfortunately to apply the changes the app must be purchased.
Thanks for the video! So, a couple of days ago mine started sliding more, like more loose. Hopefully it was this like screws loosen after the years. I will try this weekend your method and let you know! But I am positive about it
I have the same issue with my bmw 1 series. Would this be the same process. 2012 plate. - Armrest is shaky
Yeah, no need to un mount the whole unit, just remove the cover and screw them back 💪
Hi Gianni My 2022 BMW X1 sDRIVE18i M SPORT (F48) LCI right front sensors bleep randomly when there is nothing nearby. Any suggestions. PLEASE. BMW is basically saying NOTHING is wrong!!
Hi there, randomly bleeping nothing wrong? Well I would unplug the sensor it self, clean it with alcohol, plugs and everything, still randomly bleeping just replace it, about 25 euros on eBay. Hope this helps. BMW probably tested it out, it was working that moment and said everything is fine with out further investigation, it happens all the time.
@@GianniHow Many thanks. It's under warranty but they are stalling! I'll put some pressure on them. THANKS a million for replying. Greatly appreciate it.
Lets say the engine light appeared in the dashboard..so once you cleared it in the app,the engine light will also disappear from the dash board?
Yes sir, the light will disappear, keep in mind if the problem persist, the light will pop up again after car auto-check, some time just needs clearing the codes, some time car need actual fix. So if the light pop up again, consider to give some attention, reading codes it can help to isolate the problem, just run the code on google it will tell you where the problem is. Hope this helps
Thank you 🎉❤ it’s great 💃
Happy to help, if u experiencing same issue, I would strongly suggest to check as well gas gasket, the water may getting in from there. Good luck 😉
This doesn’t work on my 2007 e92
Thank you
Ottimo grazie per la dritta saluti
You can also code the car, so you can modify the car and enable a lot of handy features. For example a right mirror dip while reversing, disable start stop, headlight washers and many more.
Yeah, I’m using bimmercode combined with bimmerlink for coding

Hi @giannihow, have you tried any of the car-performance codings like the Sport+ or similar? just wondering if any of them work (i have an e84 2010 X1 model). Thanks!
Hi, it honestly never came to mind, unfortunately my model is base first edition, got a couple geeks like auto light heated seats but nothing fancy, it would be great to try it on a more capable car 🚗
@@GianniHowOk got it, i´ve seen other videos where some ppl play with those settings and get +40 hp instantly, doesn´t matter the engine version. Thanks
Molto utile, grazie.
Ciao mi puoi mettere link dove acquistare? Grazie
Hey bro. Do you have this option in bimmercode like to not check outside bulbs 💡. I mean lights. Cuz I want to install led,but it could give alarms. So can I deactivate this through this app
hello dude ! i have veepeak ble+ and x1 e84 sdrive 18 143cv. same car, after 1 month using bimmercode on samsung galaxy m53, now i cant connect :S only error connection all time, im tried to unpair and pair the veepeak with 1234 code. but cant connect, im tried erase cache but doesnt work. anyone with same problem bluetooth problems?
Hello, I can understand how this can be upsetting, so I would personally try to understand where the problem began, it can be the phone or the veepeak device, so try, with the phone, to connect to other devices and make sure it works, devices like Bluetooth speaker, headset or anything else u have available, make sure u can control it with Bluetooth, second thing I would try to use the same app on a different device/phone, at this point if it still doesn’t work U know it’s the veepeak device and this is unlikely to happen, ar this point if the problem persist I would still try to download a free to use app such as carscanner and try to connect to the veepeak device, if the problem still there u can definitely ask for a repair or replacement as the device won’t connect to anything. I genuinely believe the phone is the problem, unfortunately on android the app may not work properly. I hope this helps, if you can let me know if you sort it out it would be great. Thanks a lot and keep on watching XD
@@GianniHow works with torque free, and my samsung connect with others devices, but noe cant connect with the car... omg Doesnt show bluetooh of bmw00534 Befire working whitout problems I dont know whats hañoend, tomorrow try with another phone brb. THANKS!
Can you read codes? Like check engine light etc? And clear codes?
Good question, the short answer is no, you can not read codes or clear them, Bimmercode works with a secondary app called BimmerLink, here you can actually do the read n clear, among other things. Hope this helps 👍
Thank you, so helpful!
Hello Gianni for my bmw series 2 grand tourer i have broke the central armrest hook, I found the spare part of the hook only, but how do you replace it, I can't figure out how to remove the upper piece thank
Ciao, avresti indicazioni su come smontare il bracciolo per BMW serie 2 grand tourer per sostituire il gancio clip per la chiusura?
Ciao Roberto, di che anno e la macchina? comunque in generale sui modelli vecchi, si rimuove la trim posteriore, dove sta l'accendino, da li devi rimuovere il pin centrale, ti consiglierei di fare la riparazione senza rimuoverlo completamente, e un po noioso da rimettere apposto
@@GianniHow ciao Gianni, è del 2019.
@@GianniHow ho visto un video riferito ad altre BMW che fanno vedere che la parte del bracciolo superiore si può sganciare con un cacciavite facendo leva
Is this for front and back sensors?
Yes, it is front and back sensors. if only back sensors it will be same procedure, the only thing that changes its the module it self. Hope this helps XD
hey man, thank you loads!! my X1 was having exact same issue "PDC warning". same rainy day and much water in that compartment, i think this is a thing to check once a year.. my electronics didnt get burned, you saved me at least 100euro. bless you
one day later again malfunction. checked the electronics plate - the bottom chip had 3 pins corroded. used wd-40. hope this helps
@@clauvio5855 so make sure it’s completely dry before install, I would suggest to check 2 things, n1 the plugs for the unite usually store some water in it, blow dry it, n2 gas gasket, if u removed the issue with tail light, it must be coming from the gas door, so have the gasket checked, it should be cheap and stops the problem permanently, i my self was lucky to find the issue in the rear lights gasket, but it’s very common gas door not sealed properly, last but less common issue, rain drain from roof bar, very uncommon I would leave this last as it is huge job, I really hope this helps and of course thanks a lot for watching
Do we have to pay for full version for bimmer code?
Hi there, yes, in order to make changes the app has to be paid, otherwise you can only look at what you can do 👍
Good fast job
Thank you! It's been driving me crazy
Hi sir what kind of app did you download
Hello, the name of the app is actually “Car Scanner” it’s free to use, it did help me solve some problems. I hope this helps
I can’t connect mine
Hello, what device are you using?
THX man this is actually the video that I am serching about more then two weeks. I search a video that shows this Nierengrill with doppel Steg in realife.
Grazie Gianni, in 2 minuti ho risolto grazie al tuo video!
Cost me just $25 on Amazon in the United States
thanks a lot for watching, looks in US is cheaper, also it turns out to get a complete app we should also buy the app Bimmerlink, it cost as much as bimmercode, with bimmerlink you can also work dpf issue register new battery read and clear codes and etc. Hope this helps
great video, trying to get to the cause of my leak and never thought it could be the lights, will be whipping my lights out tmoz and check the gaskets. 👍
Hello, thx a lot for watching, while you there check petrol hole gasket, it’s also common some water coming from there 👍
@@GianniHow YOU ARE THE MAN 👍, Update; opening the fuel filler door inside there is a plastic surround - the rubber seal with the drain hole around the neck of the fuel filler pipe which is supposed to fit tightly inside the surround was not fitted correctly, there is a grove around the neck seal which is supposed to be slotted in the surround to provide a tight seal around the surround/neck to stop water getting behind it and any water that gets past the filler door is then exited through the drain hole. the rubber seal was just pushed over the neck but not slotted in the surround, i noticed when i showered water over the car water would get past the filler door and past the neck seal and then into the boot and come out right under the fuse panel (brilliant design lol), after removing the surround which also holds the filler door i refitted the rubber seal into the surround and around the neck (wasn't easy and prob the reason it was not fitted correctly) and now it stops the water getting in and i can now see where the drain hole gets rid of the water. who'd of thought water leaking into the boot would be caused by fuel filler seal (apart from you lol) what can i say but Thankyou 👏👏👏
@@rikvermar7583 Hey that's a very nice written , your comment will also help others with the same issue. I'm very glad the input helped you fixing the problem and I'm very thankful for you taking the time to let us know. Thanks man 🤗
Hey nice video I’ve got a question I am using the elm 327 mini and the car scanner app I have cleared the error but the yellow engine light on my dashboard still appears do you know why maybe ??
Hello, thanks for watching! firstly the scanner is appropriate for this app, so no worries, it is working properly, then, I would try to do another scan and check if the error pop up again, if this is the case, you got to solve the issue, the scanner will give you a code and tell you the issue in most cases, if the error keep coming up it's because the issue is real and need to be fixed, then, once the issue is fixed clear again, the light will stay off. Hope this helps.
How do you take the armrest off in the first place please?
Hi there, thanks for watching, I do strongly advise against removing the armrest, it can be easily fixed while attached, just remove the screws covers and screw them back in, if you really need to remove the armrest for other reason, then, you got to remove the back panel where the cigarette lighter is, the there is a long pin that goes through the armrest, remove that with a screwdriver and a hammer, there are 2 springs on side, remove that and don’t lose them, they will give you some headache to put them back, if you can let us know, we curious what in what you decide 👌 Good luck 🤞
Hey, thx a bunch, this pointed me in the right direction! Had the same exact issue with my X1. Parking sensors stopped working, the compartment incl. unit was flooded. For anyone having the same: Cleaning the contacts on the PCB with rubbing alcohol and drying everything up did the job for me, might be worth giving it a try before ordering a replacement unit! Now I just need to find and fix the leak :p
thank you
I think this can be the new intro
Great content and exactly what I needed to see to answer my exact ponders. Thank you for posting this
Is there a monthly subscription payment with Bimmercode or it's just a one time lifetime payment? And secondly, do you know any other App that supports the E46 generation as Bimmercode doesn't.
Well there is no monthly subscription with bimmercode, but in e46 I would suggest app like ISTA and BMW Tool, make sure to configure it with k+dkan cable, then you good to go, there are a few videos around on how to use it. let us know how you manage 👌
I watched this sat in my e84 with parking sensors issues, went to boot and my module is having a swim like urs. Helped me out much appreciated

Hi there, wondering if you tried to code your front turning signal lights as a DRL, I am just trying to do mines but nothing yet. Thanks, and good job with your videos!
Hi Bogdan, really appreciate your input, can’t thank you enough 🙏 . About the blinkers, honestly I didn’t think about, I just changed the amount of blinks, updated to 3 blinks per touch. Need to check this out, if you try please let me know what’s your result 👌
@@GianniHow update, in the end I managed to do it (us style).
@@warlordniirvana1993 what’s the us style? 🤔😅
So how has it been a month on? Did it fully fix the issue?
Yeah, in this case the issue was fixed, I can also tell you there are other areas to check, I see, unfortunately, it’s common to be the gasket in the fuel door as well, and last, less common, the rail roof gasket as well may cause this problem, I say I was lucky 🍀 so check taillight gasket, then the gasket in the fuel door, leave rail roof last as it is more complex 👌 Hope this helps 🍀
@@GianniHow thanks for providing so much detail, I'll be sure to give this all a check. Keep up the great videos think this channel will take off!!👍🏼👍🏼

ciao ho appena montata la tua stessa unità, il tipo nuovo non ha il lettore cd/dvd,molto bella mi piace,unica pecca perde l'orario,tu come hai risolto?
Ciao Marco, hai diverse opzioni per risolvere l’orario, la più semplice e collegarti con l’hotspot al cellulare, prende immediatamente l’orario, la seconda più semplice e collegare l’antenna gps alla radio, impiega diversi minuti poi si aggiorna da sola, un’altra soluzione, che sconsiglio, e lasciare la radio collegata sul positivo in modo tale che è sempre accesa e non perde l’ora 👌 ti uccide la batteria però, valuta bene, la mia radio aveva questo problema in principio e ho risolto con la soluzione del gps, 2/3 minuti e si aggiorna 👍
