Worked nicely on my 2020 330i. Now have complete control over the exhaust sound valve. Active sound was not available on my bimmercode. Also turned of start/stop function. Thank you very much.
Hey bro I’ve seen my M340 with the M3/M4 dashboard. So when u put it on sport mode it changes completely. Check if you can ever do that on your videos.
My man! did not know you have to put it on in the setting. Again thumbs up man. Amazing vid! Can you make a vid about the divergence of the fake sound enabled and disabled?
Europe has different regulations then US. Wanky Brussel made emission restrictions, thats why the g20 lost their burbles after july 2019. Us on ither habd had not such regulations as this mfrks in Europe. My car lost also his burbles after the Over The Air update
Thanks, this was exactly what I was looking for. When set to sporty it now opens the exhaust valve in comfort mode on my G21 (but remains closed on eco, which is fine with me).
It doesn’t let you select the modes? That’s strange, did you activate both of the ones i mentioned in the video? Try using Bimmercode to restore your car to a previous date and coding again.
I did the same thing and it also doesn’t let me select the “sporty” tab. But I understand why in my case, I have a 320d, diesel, and I have checked and mine doesn’t even have the valve. Guess it wouldn’t make a great change in a small diesel engine!
Just did it on my 22 M3. I have the engine sound menu, but I can’t select anything but “Depending on driving mode.” Even when I move the cursor to Sporty, Balanced, or Reduced; it won’t let me pick any of those options.
Thanks for the nice in-depth video on this, really helped me out on my own G20! But just a heads up, nobody cares about your dinner and/or your personal life. Keep up the good work!
Hi, nice video. I'm wondering how exactly is it different than default behaviour of valves in Sport mode. when I choose "sporty", does it keep valves opened ALL the time?
Hey I have a 21 g30 and followed all your instructions. I did get the option of “engine sound” on my idrive however changing the modes does not open or close my exhaust flap. Anyone else have that issue on a g30? Any idea how to fix it? I use BimmerLink to open and close and that works perfectly.
Hey man nice video. I am still curious what does the "iconic sounds" option do now after you have coded the options you did in the video? Does checking or unchecking this have an effect?
hey, so i coded, when it’s in P, i can open the valve but when i change to D, the valve automatically close, and when i put back to P, valve opens, it also opens in R - do you know how to fix this? thank you
Hey brother, Thank you for your video, but i did the same steps as you did and the engine sound added to the settings but it doesn’t work, have you any idea to fix it? Bmw 540i 2021
After doing the new update today to the iDrive it somehow reset to default all my codings that I’ve done so far in the expert modes. I also realized that they added NEW display modes which now has also M sport. When I coded it it actually just ads the M logo in the middle but the colors stay the same which I like. I also saw that you have two new options for the M display with 160mph and 200mph. Haven’t tried them since I like immediately the M sport so I left in that mode. Just FYI for everyone
Yes Any update to Idrive will remove any coding that’s been done. And I’ve noticed the same updates to Bimmercode, haven’t gotten around to trying though. Thank you for sharing!

@@rearwheeled8147 Sounds good ideal. I will definitely code "sporty" as the default drive mode when I start my car. and then I will have the exhaust valve open. Thank you very much!
I tried this on my 2020 G21 330i, in Europe. I have coded it with Veepeak. I coded successfully and I even got the option to set motor sound to sporty. But the sound of the exhaust sounds the same. What is going wrong?
Does this method allow the valve to remain open all the time? Or does it reset when the car is turned off? Would you recommend coding it in and removing the fuse 203 ?
It will close after you turn off the car. No need to remove the fuse, you can also simply just unplug from underneath the car once the valve opens then it will remain open.
@@rearwheeled8147 so it wont automatically re open the entire time after you start it? or do you have to code it each time unless you remove the cord at the bottom?
You won’t have to code it each time but you will have to turn it on in the menu that I’m showing how to code here. This menu is mostly to allow the valve to be open in comfort or eco mode. The valve is open in sport mode. Another thing you can do is code the car to start in Sport mode which will have the valve open.
so i coded all this in and it is not opening and closing when i switch between engine noise settings. is this possibly because you have sport plus unlocked on yours? I havent done that yet.
@@rearwheeled8147 Got it to switch, just had to let it warm up. Seems to close up when you put it in drive. I think im gonna just pop it open and pull the power to the valve to leave it open.
You can unplug it, that will allow it to stay open in every mode but it will no longer close. It doesn’t close when putting in Drive unless your car isn’t fully warmed up. That valve is the reason why you’ll hear more noise or Burbles in Sport mode when compared to Comfort mode.
Not really true for the 330i but was pretty much proven for the m340 when comparing older 2020 models with 2021 models. The 2020 models on the older software did sound louder
@@rearwheeled8147 hey so I’m a salesman that drives around 400 miles a week. This car would make a lot more sense than the m340i? I currently drive an e90 330i which has been great. Don’t really like the f30. But really debating on m340 and 330i. Thanks again
They 330i will be a bit better on fuel savings but the M340i gets surprisingly good mileage as well, especially if you pop it into eco mode. I wouldn’t let the be the deciding factor since I honestly don’t believe there’s big enough of a difference. Consider the cost and performance you want to be at. The 330i is definitely cheaper and has all the same luxuries except the Inline 6 engine. The M340 is more expensive but the engine is on another level of performance, honestly. The 330i is definitely quick enough but the M340 is just quick; the quickest when comparing to its current competitors. I’m honestly happy with my 330i but you may not be. Give both a test drive.
Would any coding (adding additional lights to ambient lighting, sport plus mode, opening valves) affect the warranty when taken in for service? I have 2022 330i lease and was just wondering if using Bimmercode would harm anything.
Yea I’ve done all those and went to the dealership Without issues. These are all options BMW has available for their cars that just were not set to active in certain regions or for certain models so it’s not like you’re coding something that BMW didn’t offer. The only thing that may happen is that if the dealership does a software update to your car then you’ll lose what you coded in. You can easily just re-code it, though
@@rearwheeled8147 also, I wanted to add the m sport instrument cluster, would that be fine to add as long as I take the code off before I go to the dealer for a service?
any huge mods planned for your car? Been thinkin about doing a resonator delete to bring out the exhaust note more with keeping the stock valves.. any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated. Also love the videos. Just ordered my obd2 connector yesterday, gonna sit in my car and code the interior lights, valve mod and asd delete, and sport mode. Appreciate the overwhelming long amount of time it wouldve taken me to figure all this stuff out lol :D
Thanks for watching! For sure some more cosmetic mods planned and likely trying different piggybacks and maps. I ordered a draggy so I can start reviewing performance a bit more. I’m also considering doing something with the exhaust but still trying to figure out what exactly I’m going to do.
I have 2020 model (without the mild hybrid system). I removed my resonator, coded sports plus, and keep my exhaust flap open at all times. The amount of pops and burbles from the exhaust is amazing, practically louder than a M340i. With the resonator delete, there is a huge difference in sport plus, and hardly any difference in comfort and sport.
Do you know where can i find that option "display_configurability_engine_sound" since my bimmercode(i have updated it?) does not show search bar while in headunit expert mode?
Start the engine and put it into Sport Plus mode. Leave the engine running and remove the fuse that controls the exhaust valve from the fuse board. I have an X5 G05 so in my case it is fuse 203 that controls the exhaust valve and the fuse board is located in the trunk/boot side panel.
@@rearwheeled8147 how does it change the sound? I heard that the 2021 model burbles a lot less than 2020. The Dme is locked so i guess no burblemode but does opening the valve make a difference?
Bro I have a question again 🤔 I have just coded the Motorsound Settings and now I can see it in the menu. But I can't click on it! Do you have an idea?
Do you know if, with eco mode, the valve will stay closed? For other modes, I don't mind if they're both open but specifically for eco mode, I do prefer them closed. For obvious gas reasons lol. Thanks again mate, your other video helped me unlock sport mode plus so I appreciate your content!
Great. Thanks for sharing. Was trying to put my baby to sleep and saw you posting the video and had to go immediately to my garage and do the coding lol 😂. Was just wondering any idea what that M_sound means below after you changed both settings in the HU?
Thanks for replying. Yeahh I was thinking the same thing when I was coding, was about to activate it but it was crossing my mind that it may be something applying to M models in particular. Thanks for the post. Keep it up ;)
I believe it should. It has sport mode so it should have the valve. You can confirm by cold starting the car and putting the car in Sport mode. Once you do that, stand behind the car and after the car warms up you should hear the valve click open.
Warranties don’t work like that. One modification won’t void a whole warranty. For example Things that may void a warranty are if you flash tuned your car to have more boost and this led your chargepipe to crack. This won’t affect other part warranties but specifically the chargepipe. Doing this modification won’t harm anything because in sport mode the exhaust stays open anyways. Its doing no harm

Thanks for watching! For sure some more cosmetic mods planned and likely trying different piggybacks and maps. I ordered a draggy so I can start reviewing performance a bit more. I’m also considering doing something with the exhaust but still trying to figure out what exactly I’m going to do.
I have 2020 model (without the mild hybrid system). I removed my resonator, coded sports plus, and keep my exhaust flap open at all times. The amount of pops and burbles from the exhaust is amazing, practically louder than a M340i. With the resonator delete, there is a huge difference in sport plus, and hardly any difference in comfort and sport.
hey bro i did a res and muffler delete with original tips on a y pipe and it sounds amazing in my opinion
Good thing my F15 X5 doesn't have any of that fake engine noise... one time I test drove a G05 and it has a lot, not a fan.
Is all I need the MHD adapter to do this?
You also need Bimmercode
Do you know where can i find that option "display_configurability_engine_sound" since my bimmercode(i have updated it?) does not show search bar while in headunit expert mode?
You can either scroll down reading one line at a time until you get there or you can scroll up to reveal the search bar. 😊 it doesn’t show by default
I switched to sport engine sound, but the valve will close anyway when I choose Eco mode, any way to solve it?
Start the engine and put it into Sport Plus mode. Leave the engine running and remove the fuse that controls the exhaust valve from the fuse board.
I have an X5 G05 so in my case it is fuse 203 that controls the exhaust valve and the fuse board is located in the trunk/boot side panel.
coding engine sound feature wont open my exhaust - 2021 G05 X5 - anyone has this issue?
What happens in balanced ?
Hey do you know if this works for the new 2021 model? Heard a lot about this not being possible…
I have the 2021 model so yup it works
@@rearwheeled8147 how does it change the sound? I heard that the 2021 model burbles a lot less than 2020. The Dme is locked so i guess no burblemode but does opening the valve make a difference?
Your valve is opened when you put your car into Sport or Sport+ Mode. This mod allows the valve to be open even in Comfort or eco mode.
Bro I have a question again 🤔
I have just coded the Motorsound Settings and now I can see it in the menu.
But I can't click on it!
Do you have an idea?
So strange. What car do you have?
@@rearwheeled8147 530e G30
That explains it, it’s because you have the electric version. Unfortunately this will not work for your model.
@@rearwheeled8147Yeah maybe thats the reason but the valve is there.
But maybe BMW has locked this function with the last update. 😢
Hi buddy,
now I used bimmerlink and the valve is open. 🤭
Does it work on disel engine cars?
I don’t believe it will unfortunately
Nice video! Although you blocked the places to click for coding, can you please redo it with out missing the steps
Please
Do you know if, with eco mode, the valve will stay closed? For other modes, I don't mind if they're both open but specifically for eco mode, I do prefer them closed. For obvious gas reasons lol. Thanks again mate, your other video helped me unlock sport mode plus so I appreciate your content!
Eco mode will remain closed as long as you select for that
Great. Thanks for sharing. Was trying to put my baby to sleep and saw you posting the video and had to go immediately to my garage and do the coding lol 😂. Was just wondering any idea what that M_sound means below after you changed both settings in the HU?
I noticed that and was curious as well. I’m Going to have to do more research and play with it to find out.
so I coded in and still cant seem to find out what it does. It may be a feature that is for M models that doesn't do anything for our cars.
Thanks for replying. Yeahh I was thinking the same thing when I was coding, was about to activate it but it was crossing my mind that it may be something applying to M models in particular. Thanks for the post. Keep it up ;)
Hey can you send me a link for it
Does this work for the 320i Msport? Does the 320i even have a valve lol?
I believe it should. It has sport mode so it should have the valve.
You can confirm by cold starting the car and putting the car in Sport mode. Once you do that, stand behind the car and after the car warms up you should hear the valve click open.
Great vid, does the 2nd part work for all bmw g20's like a 330e?
I’m not 100% certain honestly but I imagine it would since it does have an exhaust valve
Sadly the 2nd step doesnt Work on my 330e 😢
Voids warranty right ?
Nope
@@rearwheeled8147 bro you sure ???
Warranties don’t work like that. One modification won’t void a whole warranty. For example Things that may void a warranty are if you flash tuned your car to have more boost and this led your chargepipe to crack. This won’t affect other part warranties but specifically the chargepipe. Doing this modification won’t harm anything because in sport mode the exhaust stays open anyways. Its doing no harm
