No need to beep when you’re unlocking it… that’d be awesome if there was an option. |

I have to shut off the automatic lock/unlock when I go to cars and coffee. Just standing near the car will lock and unlock every couple seconds |

Ya, happens to me w/my X7 & X3 all the time. The unintended consequence of a convenience feature making things quite inconvenient. Need to be able to hit the key button 3 times to shut that feature off until I turn it back on. That would be a simple enough solution.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.obdlink.com/products/obdlink-cx/ Tuxon bought the newer stepped up version. I looked at what additional it offers, but saw no need to upgrade for my purposes. Might be worth a look if buying your first one. https://www.amazon.com/OBDLink-Bluet...ef_=ast_sto_dp https://www.obdlink.com/products/obdlink-mxp/ I also like the app by OBDLink that's compatible with these. Their app is similar to bimmerlink, but offers a few different items. The adapters can also stay plugged in if you want and won't drain the battery (they have a voltage cut off).

Any of the approved adapters will all work with BimmerCode. My only recommendation is if you go with a Bluetooth adapter get one that's got a plus in the name, e.g. Veepeak OBDCheck BLE+ Bluetooth. They are faster at reading and writing and worth the extra $$$. The BT ones that are not '+' adapters are painfully slow. The WiFi adapters are all fast in my experience.

I have an older ODB2 but would like an iOS one. I think I found the web link for it. Thanks.

As long as you close out the App you’re supposed to be fine alarm wise. Admittedly I’ve forgotten and the alarm hasn’t trigger. |

I’m using a cable to use Bimmercode with my iPhone but it’s nice to know the device can be left there if I decide to buy it for more reasons than Bimmercode |

I haven’t tried M2siast said it doesn’t work.
I’ve tried to listen for it but perhaps my motorcycle and loud venue ears are behind the nuance. It’s that noticeable to you? I find the car so well insulated that if I did notice it, it wouldn’t bother me. |
