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.
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).
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?
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
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.
Are you sure this keeps the valve open while driving? when I put the car in the drive I hear the valve close. Anyways great job with the video it awesome to have someone in the G20 community making videos like this!
Wanted to say thank you and congratulations, really made my day, soon I m going to buy a 330i and I m already looking for thikns to do /modify to my next car ^^, can u do some changes to to the inside noise? ( I mean to change the interior sound to m340i/m3 like?)
Thank you for all your videos, they are so simple yet useful (unlike other bimmercode vids on here) When you go into Expert mode for BCD there is all this stuff about M like M sound and I saw something abt xtra boost... are any of the M features in expert mode useful? The videos are great, looking forward to future ones 🙏🙏
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.
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!
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.
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?
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!
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
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.
hey man loved the vid and did it to my g20 330i but everytime the car turns off and locks it always goes back to depending on driving mode and doesn't stay on sporty exhaust do you have this same issue and have you solved it?
@@pablocastanomonteagudo2099 no man just have to keep changing it every time I get in I just made it a preset on the memory buttons to open it up for me to change it

I bought a BMW G20 320i M 2019 Edition. Does it have Valves? I only have the Eco / Comfort / Sport Modes- No Sport + Mode. It sound good but no Bubble sounds and what ever. So with Coding I can open the Valves? I heard that BMW changed the Sound because it was to load and what ever for a series 3BMW. I hope everything was understandable I'm not a Native English speaker. Thank you for your help.
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?

Congratulations on your videos I've really liked every one of them. Im planning to buy G20 318i and tune it to 260hp and 420nm. My question is if I'm going to be able to use the same features you are using on your 330i? Thanks again
Hello , I just coded my g20. I’m wondering if I should take off the WiFi flash adaptor or leave it on . I already finished coding a few things already. Thanks in advance
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!
They would have to be looking for it and even if they do see it they likely won’t care. It’s a function that BMW created and just didn’t have activated, you’re not coding in anything harmful.
I get you. Warranty is only affected if they can trace the cause of the issue to the modification you did. Highly highly doubt this would affect the warranty in any way.
Dear sir I have a BMW m340i of year 2019 via bimmercode when I go to headunit expert mode and then to sound there I see M sound which I have set active but I don't know what that is. can you help me there greetings
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?

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.
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.
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?
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
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.

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.
Hi men do you know if sport plus work with the 330e 2020 ? And the pops and bangs it’s only because you code the spot plus?
Will not work with 330e unfortunately
Too bad :/
Thanks anyway for the quick response.
You deliver the content in an interesting and professional way
I will continue follow 🤙🏻
Will this work on a 428i gran coupe? I know it probably might but I just wanted to ask you just to make sure.
Unfortunately not. This is for G series and won’t work for F series
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. 🤭
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
Can you do this on the M440i ? 2022
Yes you can
Has anyone with a 21 m340 tried the active sound mod? If yes did you notice any changes
Does it work on disel engine cars?
I don’t believe it will unfortunately
@Rearwheeled - I’m not able to see that option in my bimmercode, do you think they changed it to something else. I’m have a 2018 540i (G30).
did u end up figuring it out?
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.
What car do you have? It should switch between modes even without even coding, that’s a default setting. Just make sure the car is warmed up first,
@@rearwheeled8147 21 330I xdrive.
Yes it’ll switch. Have someone stand behind the car or record with your phone and you’ll hear it click when you switch from Comfort to Sport.
@@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.
