Hi there, great videos. How do I do to code headlamp low beam and hi beam error. I removed halogen and installed Led bulbs and gives me error. Question 2. Do you think that AuxBeam H7 with CANBUS codebox will work with no dashboard error? What do you recommend ? Thank you for your help
Carly is a rip-off. No refunds and they hide the fact that it's subscription-based. Deceptive advertising, sketchy business practices, no refunds, questionable value/functionality vs a standalone OBD2 scanner.
I bought it a couple years ago and actually spoke to someone over the phone and he said “if you go for that option it’s £109 but it isn’t a subscription it’s a one time payment” a year later they took £109 again and refused to refund
The banner you use that slides up and recommends subscribing….THANK YOU!!! It grates my nerves when other UA-camrs beg for followers at the beginning of all of their vlogs.
Carly also has a yearly subscription fee, they auto enroll you (~$100), see the fine print. There are many good if not better options available that do not require a yearly subscription at a lower cost, same functionality. You rock BMW Doctor!
@@pwensor I‘m sorry but a subscription service that auto renews is not uncommon. You need to pay better attention in future instead of complaining after the fact.
If you are considering using Carly, DON'T. If you know that is what you want and you are sure it will work with your vehicle, then buy it. When you do buy access to the software and it does not work, Carly WILL NOT refund regardless of how long you had the license, be it hours or days. Also be warned the license auto renews whether you want it or not.
really interesting, i like bimmercode a lot now, could you do such an in depth video about ista, live data, and all the other things it can do? Cause you have done very few videos about it, keep up the good work really enjoying it ;)
Hello, I need to fit a new battery to my bmw x1 e84 2010, can I use Carly for this to register the battery or will I need bimmercode? Thanks in advance
Hello, great video, really helped me choose between the two. I didn’t quite get what you meant by updated the firmware when you began explaining the Bimmercode app Logo coding advantages - which firmware you were referring to? The app, the car’s? How do you update the car firmware?
Hi Dean great videos they have been a massive help. only downside about this video is bimmercode have now stopped using Vgtate Icar pro adapter. I followed your link bought the adapter and I get a message saying bimmercode no Longer support that adapter. you might wanna update the link.
What i didn’t appreciate is that Bimmercode doesn’t allow you to use the purchased license in both desktop and mobile versions…you’ll have to buy it separately
Thanks for sharing your review. I’ve been using BC for over a year now and I agree that it’s worth the $80-$90 that you’ll pay one-time plus have updated firmware. Plus, I never knew iC was that restrictive 🤨Great review and thanks again 👍🏽💯
Damn. After watching this video I went to purchase Bimmercode only to see my 2004 E46 325i isn’t supported. I have scanners that work but they don’t code. To be honest, I upgraded my headlights and tail lights with Auxito LED bulbs and all I want to do is code those so I don’t get the error lights. I’m retired and looking for a cheap and easy way to do this. No way I’m buying Carly…too many nightmare vids on their annual renewal costs. Any ideas?
Appreciate the video, didn't realise so many other people requested this video. I literally asked a day or 2 ago and here we are 😂 I'll go with BimmerCode and just keep off expert mode I think 👍
I am mainly interested in turning off (completely) comfort access in G11 (740). Can someone please confirm if I can permanently turn off using BC or Carly (or both) ?
Hi there, can I use Bimmercode to change radio FM band frequency from Japanese to European? Also what program can I use to load my local maps into the navigation system?
Correct it does but I would trust Carly with my FRM like I do with BimmerCode. Also carly doesn’t give you access to other modules like BimmerCode does, you also can’t code in launch control with Carly and other functions. With BimmerCode you can do retrofits if you know FDL coding. But if Carly you cannot do that also you must pay Carly yearly, BimmerCode there is no yearly charge it’s a one off cost that’s it.
Yes not be trusted ! 😂 it backs up correct, but once it destroys your FRM module your backup is useless 😅 so don’t eve take that risk. As the FRM holds most of the valuable coding features on the car.
Hi everyone.. quick Question. I have bimmercode app . My Q is which adapter (scanner) is best to use with the app . I mean they recommend a lot of choices 😢🤷 help , thanks
@bmwdoctor I have a g05 and have the mil light on. It’s passed it’s MOT has a visual check done by BMW no leaks everything in tact and then the light came on. Any idea how I can sort this?
Doc, can i turn off Auto leveling on LED headlights with Bimmercode? When my 640i driver side low beam moves up or down it shuts off. I have to flash highbeams to reset. Happens all the time on hard launches, hills, braking, and turns, and potholes...any quick movement and it shuts low beam off.
Question was doing preventative maintenance and I replaced my EKPM2 to EKPM3 and VVT motor and sensor now, the relearn process for these to can I use BimmerLink? To register and code these in my car?
What are the recommended FEM codes when swapping stock halogen H4 bulbs for LEDs ( with no CANBUS) on a 2015 F56 Cooper 2 doors hardtop Base? Do you need to turn off voltage monitoring 1/2 and 2/2 in addition to the Warning option to make the expected light flickering and error codes go away?
Just so everyone knows, Carly has switched to a yearly subscription service and many people have reported shady practices regarding this. Buyer beware.
I bought this for my 2012 Fiat 500 Sport. I was disappointed to see that I couldn’t change any of the lights, wiper settings. Do you know if there is an app like Bimmercode for all cars?
can you add in extra features (e.g. option software packs) which you did not have ordered as standard? or is it only the modules that were pre-installed
Help please. I have bimmercode and i have a x3m Ive done a lot in expert mode, like having mph with the kmh dial, changed heat seating to max, higher than none expert mode, umm....lots of stuff, But i would like to do more but dont understand german, how do i translate to understand everything i see. Aktiv and not aktic, lots i would like to know. Got rid of all the pop ups in expert mode, dsc off was a great pop up to remove, was a long full screen affair before. Please help, dr. Appreciate it and thanks in advance
Correct the app and interface was made in Germany. The transcripts and all data is made in China and intergrated into the app. Therefore China and Germany share it together.
Hi quick question, i have a 328i e90 and the steering wheel angle sensor went bad so i changed it, i replaced it with a used one but the lights on the dash didn’t turned off. So the question is, would carly or bimmercode be able to clear those lights? Thank you
This was very informative. I had bought the Carly adapter for my car but I am considering Bimmercode as well. Do you know wether either of them are retrofit friendly? IE if I retrofitted an NBT Evo ID6 on a 2012 F series which did require some custom coding (not done by me). Thank you

That's mean Bimmercode can be used in LCI retrofit coding, right?
bimmercode is shit, doesnt have for open valves doesnt have 440i logo, and M4 logo even doesnt work
This link doesn't work for e82 apparently? Is that a mistake on Amazon's behalf ?
Hello,does this adaptor from link cover all Bmw models?Thanks
Carly is a rip-off. No refunds and they hide the fact that it's subscription-based. Deceptive advertising, sketchy business practices, no refunds, questionable value/functionality vs a standalone OBD2 scanner.
Agreed!
I bought the Mercedes version, and it was almost useless.
Sold it and never looked back.
I bought it a couple years ago and actually spoke to someone over the phone and he said “if you go for that option it’s £109 but it isn’t a subscription it’s a one time payment” a year later they took £109 again and refused to refund
Bimmercode allows to be used by many different OBD2 adapter where Carly uses their own specific adapter that you have to purchase from them.
Exactly that !
Very helpful, thank you 👍
Can I use any Wifi/Bluetooth adapter for Bimmercode?
@@michaeldschutte yes. I just buy any random wifi/bluetooth adapter to link with the bimmercode/bimmerlink on my iphone.
The banner you use that slides up and recommends subscribing….THANK YOU!!! It grates my nerves when other UA-camrs beg for followers at the beginning of all of their vlogs.
Agreed. Lots of morons on youtube. Many ask you to subscribe to their channel and like the video before you have watched it.
Bro, relax 😅

Can you state any nice option that doesn't require yearly subscription
@@anthonysylvester8414BimmerCode ?
I believe in your choice.......I will go for Bimmercode>>>>>>Thank you for the review.
Carly will auto-renew after 12 months without a reminder and they do not give refunds. Avoid.

Bimmercode doesn't support the E39. Does Carly?
Yes
How would you compare BimmerCode and a Foxwell NT510/530/etc?
any of these apps can delete the SOS Phone error or deactivate the phone module in the middle arm rest on E61?
Sorry if I missed this in the video, but do you have to buy the full version of BimmerCode to access all that the video showed?
Also would like to know
Bonjour ... Avez vous une vidéo comment programmer une crémaillère qui a été changé bmw F20 2014 .
Hello my friend I’m having issue to start engine battery is good but when I press the brake don’t release the transmission and do not start.
Can I read out the driving styles with BimmerCode as well ?!
I have the full version of Carly it backs up all original coding before you recode.
Correct it does but I would trust Carly with my FRM like I do with BimmerCode. Also carly doesn’t give you access to other modules like BimmerCode does, you also can’t code in launch control with Carly and other functions. With BimmerCode you can do retrofits if you know FDL coding. But if Carly you cannot do that also you must pay Carly yearly, BimmerCode there is no yearly charge it’s a one off cost that’s it.
I was pointing out your statement was incorrect. if it’s not to be trusted that’s a different issue 😊
Yes not be trusted ! 😂 it backs up correct, but once it destroys your FRM module your backup is useless 😅 so don’t eve take that risk. As the FRM holds most of the valuable coding features on the car.
Does bimmer code tell you what driving mode was used the most; like the carly app telling you if its been beat on
What is the best and most budget friendly reader compatible for all functions on bimmercode thanks

So basically Bimmercode > Carly from what I am seeing with all the reviews and opinions?
Great Video, exactly what I needed. But: Isn't BimmerCode german as well? From what I read, it was developed by some company in Stuttgart.
