Sounds like communism if we can only have one favorite. Wonder if you can use to to get you partially to the right step then use it once, change the setting and use it again to get back to the partial step?
As I mentioned previously, did not even realize was present other than the occasional 'sound' (lots of new , different sounds to get used to) and the speed sign popping up on the center display.
Oh boy going down that rabbit hole now WOW, Magna Steyr has been involved with porsche on and off for years, interesting reading about the coding possibilities that the porsche guys are doing.I got a reply from Stephan at BimmerCode, also a No at this point.
I’ve just picked up a coding tool called ThinkDiagAG that the Porsche community has been using with success to code cars (which has been historically harder to do than BMW). Apparently it works across all cars and is relatively cheap. Might be worth a shot. Also, note the full coding functionality only works on Android devices, not iOS, so keep that in mind if anyone decides to go this route. When I get my Gren, I’ll try it, but I’m 3 months away.

I hear ya - but I'm very cautious with software changes independently - the car has the aerodynamics of a brick - but do not want to make it into a brick so to speak
To make all this worse in my experience, the darn thing is "remembering the off setting" sometimes between key cycles. I drove it two days ago and turned the speed alert off, let it sit over Christmas at least 36hrs locked up in the driveway, and this morning got in, went to change the setting to "off" so I could tolerate driving the thing and it was already "off". Wonder if it is because I only clicked the key fob lock once, opened passenger door first, parked facing north, used e-brake? And to add further aggravation of the Ineos trademark "clicking" today, two weeks into ownership and use, it has decided to "click" one time each time I make a turn over say 80degrees or so. LOL - I took video to add to the dealer repair list when I take it in. I do love the truck, but this electronic stuff is making it unlivable. SOMEONE PLEASE, PLEASE find the wire to cut !!!!
No matter what, don't cut the blue wire.
Its the same "click" as the speed alert. Just doing it one time each turn vs Click, Click, Click on overspeed.
Thats funny! I was trying to focus on the big issues but yes, on occasion, it will remember the settings! Sometimes. I 'think' the 80 degree turning thing is related to how much you have to turn and not getting it into the lane.
Is it the speed limit change indicator? When you turn onto another street that has a different speed limit from the one you were on previously, the speed limit change would make it click. That can be turned off. It's the third item on the ISA menu.
I have been reading a lot on other forms and most readers have memory so you can rewrite the old code back in and I think its 80.00 reader and it works on about every car, the guy on one video was using it on a supra but used the BMW in the drop down menu to turn off any and everything he wanted it was not locked like one of the previous posters said about his tacoma, it should be that easy. as soon as I pick mine up I will dive into it..I hear ya - but I'm very cautious with software changes independently - the car has the aerodynamics of a brick - but do not want to make it into a brick so to speak
For $80.00 does anyone know all the other dependent lines of code which if someone suppresses or deletes do not permanently hose this up? Is the line departure or speed tied into emergency braking? Does something else look at speed warning or something else - if any other system relies on ADAS data - you have in a word just f'ed a vehicle up (potentially) and voided your warranty...This is a really good point. I'm certain the the display issues a CAN message to the controller for when the disable command is sent. I can hook up a can reader from work and see if i can get that message. if i can get it, i should be able to spoof it to the system from a can transmitter (and that isn't that hard to do). This sounds like something that shouldn't be that hard to do if ineos doesn't come through.
...And i'm sure some enterprising european talent will do something like this for their domestic markets...
