Exit the Instrument Cluster and then go back in
For Layout choose either of the M performance options and code
You should now have the m240i logo!

My theory is that those of us that choose a layout that was not one of the M performance one's right off the bat we "lost the ability" for the logo to show up. Once we restore our initial backup and then choose M Performance we get the m240 logo!
I followed the steps and I was able to code "M240i". Thanks for the info

I like that it adds the M colors along the bottom left. Does it also:

- Change the font of the digital speedometer?
- It appears that the tach needle is shortened from standard dash to m performance dash.

Yes and yes

The font change is really nice. Larger and easier to read.

Yup. Looks much better in my opinion. The font is more "aggressive" and boxy than the normal font. I also changed the refresh rate from 2 to 5 and its amazing. The gauge cluster and HUD change much faster and smoother now

I will try out that refresh rate change. I saw it but figured it wouldn’t make much of a difference. I will report back later.

Did you find out the software version? I've heard it's 3/2022.

Thanks. I have a service appointment next week and requested this software install. I heard only dealerships and manufacturing has it to install currently. I'll let everyone know if they install it for me.

Hmmm. Try doing this:
1. M Cluster
2. M Sport 160mph
3. M Sport 200mph
See if that process works

I did that actually . M cluster put the cls 3.0 logo then couldn’t get the logo.
Restoring to backup worked .. leaving it as 160 for now

Oof I don’t know. I would think not but who knows. I’m thinking no because of the difference of the screens? But someone figure this out because if it can be coded I want it

I am dying for this. This is my only gripe with ID8. I just hate the standard ID8 cluster colors/fonts/graphics, all of it. I think it all sucks and is really weak and unaesthetic. The M version of it is a lot more appealing to me and I hope one day someone is able to provide us a way to get those graphics on the main cluster. As for the infotainment screen, I am fine with the non-M version, its whatever.
