Hello Anders, my apologies for the late reply. Please send me an email via funcarsgoodpeople@gmail.com and I will send you any wiring diagram in PDF as you need! There's no standalone wiring diagram for X10170 or X10171. Do you mean the one that I showed in the video? It's the wiring diagram of the heated steering wheel and sure I can send it to you!

Hi Aspireonthego, I didn’t know the “thermostat connector” until you mentioned it! Yes I think it will do the job! Thank you for the idea! Now I know where I can buy it 🤗

@ Cool! And then I can just hook up the wires to a portable battery booster using clamps?

Yes the transmission oil pump simply needs 12 volt supply. That’s what I did at the beginning but my booster did not seem to work this way so the pump activation was interrupted. I guess a car battery or power adapter will be more convenient 🤔

@ Great, maybe I’ll give that a try. Thanks for answering my questions!

Hi Yair, thank you very much for the comment! I hope it helps 🤗

Hi EatCrow yeah that's the mutual memory of all human kind 🥲 This channel was started when my job was under the effect of COVID-19. Wow, what a memory!

@@funcarsgoodpeople it is painful to see my fellow human beings who have been abused by government psychological warfare operations which normalised such degrading treatment of people.

Hello Director 17, the iDrive sees the interface as a CD source but it cannot play the OE radio and CD at the same time. I know some interfaces has radio function but this particular product in this video does not. 🤗

@ thanks, but if I accept no audio from carplay, can the device display carplay while I listen to FM? Very useful thanks for your reply

Hi @@TheDirector17 that's another limit of this interface so the answer is no 😒 It is because the display of CarPlay is triggered by playing the virtual CD (emulated by the interface.) When you tune the FM, CarPlay will be standing by in the background. Hard choice, right 😬

Hi Albert yes they are in the same spec! I haven't use any one of those coming with the magnetic oil drain plug because I change the oil filter every time. Recently I'm thinking not changing the oil filter every time since the oil appeared to be very clean. Maybe we can change the oil filter every two oil changes so those crush washers that come with the magnetic oil drain plug can be used 😁

Hello scorpioncubain I have the same question! I tuned the EQ equalizer and improved the sound quality but still cannot achieve the previous performance. Maybe I did not tune it right. I will ask Mr12Volt and see what they say and reply to you here.... === Bonjour scorpioncubain j'ai la même question ! J'ai réglé l'égaliseur EQ et amélioré la qualité sonore, mais je ne parviens toujours pas à atteindre les performances précédentes. Peut-être que je ne l'ai pas bien réglé. Je vais demander à Mr12Volt et voir ce qu'ils disent et vous répondre ici....

@ merci mon ami !

Hi Steve it’s a feature good-to-have 🤗. Some cars are really hard to park nicely (I have the experience… and I believe it’s the car’s design problem 😂). The reverse camera is especially helpful in crowded city. Other than that, I do think a driver should know by heart where the four wheel are 😊

Thank you Mr. FryFish for the tips! It was my first time and yeah really learned a lot from it 🤗 I hope I never have to go back in there again 😂

Hi Doc yes you are right. It depends on how many unoccupied fuse slots you have for the new devices. If you have enough empty fuse slots than the relays are not necessary 🤗

@@funcarsgoodpeople Thank you! These videos are very well done, and also helped me get better with ISTA!

You are very welcome, Doc! Let me know if your have any questions or interesting findings🤗 Keep in touch!

Hello Max, you will have to bypass the CD changer by unplugging the fiber optic connector on it and attach a bypass loop to that connector (included in the package. Or it is also available on the internet.) If the CD Changer is not bypassed, the headunit may see a device conflict (I don't think there can be two CDCs on a same MOST circuit.) You can also use the professional way of removing the CDC, see my other video: ua-cam.com/video/RhKOkYNZ65M/v-deo.html but skip the coding part to keep the CDC options.

Hi Daniel, this code does not mention about the location of the o2 sensor. I searched a little bit and found that code 275E is stored when the air/fuel mixture is too lean/rich. This is when the adaptation has reached its limit and cannot adjust anymore. The code does not say that O2 sensor is broken but it may be possible. I think the pre cat sensor is responsible for this code (where post cat is for monitoring cat conditions) so you can try to replace it if necessary. Please come back and let me know how it goes 🤗

@@funcarsgoodpeople what would I buy then, pre cat sensor?

@@danieldekeyser6477 Hi Daniel, I suggest swapping the bank 2 O2 sensor with bank 1 first to see if the code goes to the bank 1 side. The sensors are not cheap so better have the faulty one confirmed!

Hello Mira thank you for the question. I don't think my method is perfect for everyone but I hope it helps people finding their convenient setup. I want to integrate the interface to the MOST system so it can send sound signal to the amplifier and I can have the best sound quality (but I haven't finish configuring it.) This interface was what I could find for the MOST system at that time. Besides I also want to receive the notifications on the phone so CarPlay is most convenient for me ;) === Здравствуйте, Мира, спасибо за вопрос. Я не думаю, что мой метод идеален для всех, но надеюсь, что он поможет людям найти удобную настройку. Я хочу интегрировать интерфейс в систему MOST, чтобы он мог отправлять звуковой сигнал на усилитель и добиться наилучшего качества звука (но я еще не закончил его настройку). Этот интерфейс я смог найти для системы MOST на сайте в тот раз. Кроме того, я также хочу получать уведомления на телефон, поэтому для меня удобнее всего использовать CarPlay ;)

Hello Chawki, the E90 M3 has different ET values for the front and rear axis. So the same spacers will make the rear wheels extending more outwards than the front. I want to make the wheel surface flush with the fenders so I had to use front 17.5 mm and rear 10 mm. Later I changed to front 15 mm and rear 12 mm for better fitment (please see the video about Eibach Pro: ua-cam.com/video/ks56usa901w/v-deo.html )

@@funcarsgoodpeople ; many thanks Dear Freind; we are learning from you : )

Hi Chawki thank you for the feedback! Best wishes to you too!

Hi FIS.org what are the symptoms you are having? I searched this code in bmwfault.codes and found that this code comes from the JBE junction box (the fuse panel.) It mentions about power supply on 30g_f, are some of your modules (non-essential) not having power? For your car model, the 30g_f relay should be built in the JBE. The power management tells the relay to switch off non-essential modules when the battery is low. I guess that your modules on 30g_f is not getting power even when there's no fault so we get the code. If you really have to replace the relay, the whole JBE has to be replaced. But I hoper this is not the case. Please come back and let us know more!

@ Hello, FCGP. I appreciate your response to my inquiry. I have indeed replaced the JBE. The prior JBE was substituted, yet it exhibited the same problem. I was under the impression that the issue had been resolved. Thank you once again, my friend. I will keep you informed of any developments. I am uncertain if any non-essential items are malfunctioning. The car has not functioned properly since I purchased it.

@ I don't notice any problems. It just driving me crazy that I can't figure out why I have these codes.

I see. I'm glad to know that this problem is solved. The E9x series rely much on electronics. Based on my limited experience, the fault codes help us solve 90% of the problems. You are welcome to discuss with me about the codes via email: funcarsgoodpeople@gmail.com

Hello joakize, I think I did it okay because the feeling on the pedal improved after the fluid change. I guess I was just lucky that air didn't get in. Next time I won't use this primitive method anymore XD I will use a pressure bleeder for the job. Thank you for the comments!

您好，我最初是在北投小開哥那邊施工的。但最近發現他好像沒有營業了。我若有問到其他車友推薦的，再回來留言回覆給您。

再請問一下，關閉冷啟動程序後有什麼不良影響嗎

個人覺得少了冷啟動程序，不良影響有二： 1. 發動聲浪不夠震撼、不夠帥。 2. 空氣污染排放增加（因為冷車觸媒尚未達到工作溫度）。 除此之外對於車子本身是沒有不良影響的。

Hello Gustav, I'm so happy to know that you completed the installation! The hub emulates a CDC on the MOST network so iDrive thinks it's playing sound via a CD. But your iDrive seems to detect some device conflict on the MOST network. And I agree with you that coding is needed. Please refer to my other video about removing CDC: ua-cam.com/video/RhKOkYNZ65M/v-deo.html just do the reverse to add the CDC to the system.

@funcarsgoodpeople Today I code the CCC with SAS code 672, it's the CDC unit. Now in my Autel in the SAS codding recognize the 6 CD drive but nothing happens 🤔 still the same y try to reset the unit, unplug the battery but nothing works.

I see. I guess your tool writes the CAS and/or NFRM module the code 672 (but CCC wasn't written). When you unplug the battery and make the car reboot totally, CCC and MOST read the option code 672 and configure themselves have CDC. Maybe you need to wait longer to make the modules totally reset, but I have never done so. I always use NCS Expert to do the coding and it take effect right away.

Hi Carl. Thanks for all your tips!! All configured and works perfect 😉 using your NCS tips, but in my case the only way to work was removing the CD config and not the CDC. But works 😉 a little tip for anyone. My mic I put it in the other compartment beside the original mic. I remove the interior plastic and I made a hole and put Mimic, the result completely invisible 😉

Wow congrats Gustav, I am so happy for you! Thank you for the feedback, especially the coding tips. I will pin your comment so the folks can use your useful tips! And I will study the coding options again about the CD removal. Stay in touch!

Hello costarica thank you for the feedback! My OE magnesium-aluminum alloy valve covers suffered from the inevitable corrosion. I just replaced them with NRW Design full aluminum valve covers. They really look great and will never get rotten like the OE ones. The video will come soon! Stay in touch!

I replaced the valve covers on my 2013 as they were weeping. I've owned my car since May 2015. It's great to see that you also have the proper 3-pedal MT. Thanks for the videos.

Oh nice to hear that! Thank you too for chiming in 🤗 The MTs are disappearing… please keep her well maintained💪💪💪

Thank you for the kind regards! See you soon 🤗 -Carl

Hello dcp thank you for your feedback! The interface takes the CAN signal to know that the car is in reverse gear so there’s no problem for your E60 manual 🤗 The reverse camera display menu has several options as adapt both OE and aftermarket cameras. I am actually pretty surprised to see this solution because it wasn’t on the user manual 😁 people can also configure the interface to take signal from the reverse light so there’s quite flexibility for the reverse camera setting 👍👍👍

Hello Elden, I chose 2.5 ton lift but I forgot the model was L2500E or L520E. I contacted Luxmain and ordered 110V 60Hz motor which is not on their official website.

Hi Rahim welcome to the S65 DIY gang :D I used only one magnetic drain plug for the engine oil sump because of the bolt design. The OE drain plugs are with hex internal drive, where the one I used in the video has hex external drive. The latter is sticking out of the oil sump a bit much so I decided not to use it in order to keep the ground clearance. Besides, the oil is circulating in the engine so I think one magnet is enough to catch the metal shavings. Oh buy the way, I thing these from ECS Tuning has quality. You can trust them ;)

@@funcarsgoodpeople Awesome, thank you for the info! I ended up realizing that like you said the bolt design wont match for the front. I just did my oil change today and both of the drain plugs were stripped. But thanks to a quality extractor I was able to get them out pretty quick. I also purchased the diff and dct plugs as well so thank you for the recommendation in the videos!

@@rahimrustamov8241 Thank you Rahim for the feedback! It's my pleasure. Please do come back and let us know how those magnetic drain plugs work! In my last engine oil change, the magnetic tip did not have any metal accumulation, only slight sludge. I think my engine is quite healthy🤨

Hi Rahim thank you for the feedback! The valve stem seals project is almost done. I guess I can put everything back next week. There are two videos, the Camaro shifter and E90 soft-close retrofit, in progress of editing. Please stay tuned!

Hello AK first it's my bad about the misalignment of my introduction and the review. But they are truly what I think! I believe MOST bus delivers best sound quality (BMW's high end audio options like Logic 7 and Individual Audio are on the MOST bus) so that's why I chose this product (at that time there were no other CCC interfaces using MOST.) What I am not sure is the EQ setting in this interface. By default the sound quality is not satisfying on my Individual Audio. I can tell the power spectrum is weak at certain frequency range :( I tried to tune the EQ but still no success. Maybe it's due to my lack knowledge or experience in tuning the EQ. So if you know car audios (not me) and you really want to use Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, you can give it a shot. For the sake of sound quality, AUX+Individual/Logic 7 is already satisfying. I just wanted to use CarPlay and have fun with this DIY :D Thank you for the comment. More discussions are welcomed!

謝謝Anson！

Hi rcz3349, yes I find no problem using 5w50 (mostly daily drive and on highway.) I have magnetic oil drain plug and it doesn't show any abnormalities at oil change. Recently I removed the valve covers and camshafts to replace valve stem seals, and I think the wear conditions are pretty okay. Although I live in a hot climate (20-35 degree C) but I feel 10w60 is too slow for the engine to reach working temperature. 5w50 is satisfying🤗

Hi 1000hp do u mean it s*cks 🫣 but you may send me email regarding anything about the retrofit, I will reply sincerely 🤗 with useful information!

Hello Moudy thank you for the message 🥰 looking forward to our next meeting! Keep in touch!

Hello Isidro, thank you! We'll definitely keep in touch!

Thank you Jovan! Yeah, with 3-4 topics to do, I'm thinking about using AI voiceover to boost the production. See you soon!

啊哈哈我也想看看寶包喜不喜歡修車 😆

Thank you for the comments! Please come back anytime to share your progress 🤗 My busy working season has just gone, next video is coming soon!

Thank you for the comments! I will do my best 😉

Hi ojpsw I totally agree with you. There are so many similar products and they are all made in China. That’s why the quality is so-so, the cost is low and the brand and shops can have room for profit 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ anyway I did it for fun 🤗 and I had fun. For me it’s worth it.

Hi Manuel, this is Rheingold ISTA+ for BMW diagnostics and services. I use it with a K+DCAN USB cable. You can find a free version via the internet. Please prepare 120GB space for the software 🫣

@@funcarsgoodpeople thank you very much!

Hello TY, I looked this code up and it implies the disconnection between the CAS and DME module. This code is due to "Terminal 15 Sense Circuit Low" and its description says check the wiring harness between CAS and DME. However I think that probability is low. I would check the battery first. The power management system will disable the starter motor when the battery energy is below certain threshold (to avoid over-draining the battery.) Many BMWs have such low voltage syndromes so I always suggest to have a fully charged, healthy battery as the first step :)

Hi @edenadamstory, practically the controlling units (CAS, DME and starter motor) take power from 15/15N independently, via not only one fuse. e.g. Some CAS has two fuses on terminal 15. Which BMW model are you working on? Send me an email via funcarsgoodpeople@gmail.com I'll look it up for you :)

Hi Dane thank you for the feedback! Which car model are you talking about? The S65 engine does not have independent fuse for the O2 sensors so I did not have to check them during the troubleshooting. If you are looking for fuse map or wiring diagram for a BMW, you can mail me funcarsgoodpeople@gmail.com and I will look it up for you 🤗

Hi maxlee yes, you can skip coding, but you will need to bypass the CD changer with an fibre optic (available on net) to keep the MOST loop intact/closed. Or you can refer to 12:05 to reconfigure the MOST hub to bypass the CD changer. Otherwise there will be no sound when the MOST loop being open.

Hello convella, yes I really want to make a full video about the #softclose #retrofit but still find no time for it. I have all the video materials for it and I promise I will! And you are right! Please send me an email funcarsgoodpeople@gmail.com and I can send you relative information like BMW wiring diagrams, photos about the installation. Thank you!

Hello convella thank you very much! I really enjoy sharing ideas with people and I hope my videos are useful. Please come back anytime and see if my other videos can give you any new idea. This year has been particularly busy for me so my DIY projects and videos are still pending. I will be back soon, I promise!

Hello chivalruss350, thank you very much too for your feedback! I’m feeling happy for you! Indeed the light switch cluster is pretty hard to pop up with the BMW method 😂 I had a difficult time too! Thanks for the tip! The interface is powered via terminal 30g which should shut down in 30 minutes after you lock the car. So the WiFi from the interface should also terminate as the car sleeps, unless the car detects the key in its vicinity and starts awake. Please be careful of the power drain problem!

I did not leave any air bubbles nor have leaks.

Hi gabby, the activation of DSC pump is to remove air bubbles in the DSC module (there are many valves to regulate hydraulic pressure for the brakes.) I don't think you have to do this procedure every time unless your brake system is used heavily. And I don't think it is related to the pedal touching the floor. Did your pedal touch the floor before the service? If so I guess the pedal mechanism needs to be checked.

@@funcarsgoodpeople yes it touched before and I change brake pads, rotors and fluid. Also made sure no bubbles or leaks were detected

@@gabby811ify have you found out yet why the pedal touched the floors? I have been looking through the M3 Forums and they are not doing the last DSC steps and not having any problems.

@@SuperPandaren yea I’ve seen that ppl don’t have issues when doing the DSC either. My best guess is that the master cylinder can be it.

謝謝你！kh，很高興受到你的肯定！今年我當了新手爸爸，實在是太忙了。我也希望能再度有時間來DIY還有製作影片...
