Anyone figure out how to lower the suspension automatically when parked?

How about leaving third row AC on when both seats folded down? I think it works when only one seat is down.

I think if you are on 03/2020 software or newer you can run the AC in 3rd row with both seats down. I've been able to do that since day one.

Ah. Maybe why it works with one seat down. I don’t remember if I tried that when first acquired.

Nope. That's still right at the top of the wish list for BMW to implement.

The last update allows for two separate colors to be picked. It only seems to work on the bronze selection. I picked green for floor board and yellow for top sections.

Wish I could set more color options. Maybe I'm doing something wrong

So can you still code all the areas a different color as long as they are the same color or no?

bimmercode can fix this, I have mine coded to Red&Blue with white.

I am only seeing one option for the color. It changes bronze to any color you choose but I can’t have it two tone like yours. I am using the test flight version of bimmercode. Am I doing something wrong?

Im not that experienced with Test Flight vs Paid version, maybe someone could chime in.

Do you see the two options for ambient light?

When I choose the 1st option (green), it changes the color. When I choose the 2nd color(yellow), it states "unassigned value" for 1st color chosen.
But both color stay from what I originally picked as my 1st and 2nd options.

I sent a request for guidance to Bimmercode. Awaiting a response…

I do have the paid version but bimmercode gave me beta access via test flight. I only see 1 option under ambient lighting. Bronze is the default and if I change that to another color the whole cars ambient light is that color. I don’t have an option to set 2 different colors. Please let me know what bimmercode says.

From BimmerCode support

You may need to come out of test flight.

Reach out to them and see what they say.

Actually, there was an earlier version of Test Flight that did allow the dual color setup. It was back when the color setup was being developed for some other G-series models prior to the X7 (and X5 and X6 presumably since they all share the same basic hardware). I remember trying it once and it seemed to work. But the option went away in later Test Flight versions when official X5/X6/X7 development for this feature started. The Test Flight app keeps older versions of beta BimmerCode apps for 90 days so you can always go back and reinstall an older version, but I have no clue which beta version it was.

Of course, you should be able to use Expert Mode to do the dual color setup. There was a big thread about it in the G20 forums.

So I downgraded to version 4.1 build 11925 and I had to select a 3 series for both ambient light options to appear. Now it says ambient light contour and ambient light but it seems to only take one lighting option after I code even though I’ve selected 2 different colors. Any suggestions? I’m aware it can be done in expert mode but I was wondering how Hejusnice did it without expert mode.

None…. My guess is when it worked for me with an older beta version it might have been a fluke.

I just noticed that the ambient light by the floor is blue and everywhere else is yellow (the color I chose). Is that how it supposed to work?

Nice…yeah I was looking for other areas to be different in color too. But I realized the floor board was the lower option!

my X7 got updated today via OTA and it seems that i cant change body domain controller options which includes windows, lock and drive mode is that because bimmercode needs to be updated?

Mine was updated last week to 03/2021.57 and I was able to use bimmercode to change body domain controller options. what type of ODBC adapter are you using? I am using the wired ethernet adapter.
My bluetooth adapter could only update some of the settings.

i use the black MHD through wifi worked like a charm in my x5 and x7 for very long, today body domain controller is greyed out and i cant do that when i click on it it tells me to cehck if there is an update

I find all the wifi/bt ones to be unreliable. Most reliable is to go with a wired solution.

Did you check if you updated to latest version of bimmercode? The android version had an update on 6/17/2021

[joeruby1]

Updated bimmer code and all good now, thank you

[Hejusnice]

Do anyone know how to find a changelog on the latest update for BimmerCode.
Just curious if any new features unlocked?
I used the facebook link, no changelog info there.
