When I changed mine I used BMW 1.4 in IKE (IIRC) reprogram opens a series of tick boxes you can select what speed it occurs at. There are many other functions you can adjust as well.

Hope that helps

From memory it was a dealer coded function at the time, along with getting the seat memory to note other settings such as mirror position.  I had to take mine in and fill in a form selecting what ‘convenience’ options I wanted coded in.  Carly might also enable it if you have that.

BMW scanner 1.4 for me as well.
You can do quite a few things with it including turning the hot/cold light check off if you want to use LED's.
You can get it for not a lot on the bay.
Not the advert i bought from just a quick search.

As others have stated it’s easy enough to do using scanner 1.4

It’s worth getting as it’s nice and straight forward to use and navigate.

Hi Raj,
I have one of these, but never got round to installing it...
I will dig it out this weekend n& give it a go.

Will this package also pinpoint a potential auto leveling issue cause if a potentiometer height sensor is iffy?.

It should do as I’m sure I’ve had errors for a specific sensor previously.
