Coding: Keep last driving mode

Always reverts back to Comfort like we all know, but is it possible to make it retain the last setting? (For example, I have to set it to Adaptive everytime).

Alternatively, is setting a different default (like Adaptive) also possible?

Thanks

Yes, any car with BDC_Body can set to remember shutdown setting (certain choices) or default to any choice.

Thanks. I really need to learn how to do BMW "coding" then. I've been putting it off as I've been feeling too lazy to do it, just for one single thing.

There are lots of options, but coding choices are personal preference.

I´m a relatively new coder and have just managed to code MSA Memory on my G30. Can you share your insight as to where exactly i can code to always default to sport mode in my BDC_Body?

Thanks that was exactly the hint I needed.Quite obvious actually since it probably stands for "Fahrerlebnisschalter" which translates to Driving Experience Switch. Now I just have to figure out how exactly to set up the memory function.

Does anyone know if this particular option can be coded using BimmerCode? (And how?)

I'm trying to code this on M550i but I cannot find the right CAFD to do it. I'm using Esys 3.27.1 with Launcher Pro 3.2.1. Launcher doesn't seem to know about CAFDs as there is a lot of unknown parameters there.

There are 4 CAFDs under BDC_BODY2 but all of them gives me nothing when I'm searching FES. Is it so that M550i has something different than other cars or what is the problem? I cannot make any coding for BDC_BODY because of this.

That is likely a memory issue because it is mapped with latest Pro Launcher.

Make sure to
1. install 64-bit java in E-sys directory
2. Increase memory in Launcher Settings to 4-8 GB
3. remove unneeded kiswb in Launcher settings.

Thanks, that did it I also managed to code off automatic headlights when light switch is in 0 position. Now it stays in DRL even if there is dark outside. The A mode puts headlights on depending of ambience lighting.

On my f15 X5...it was doable using the Bimmercode app using coding selections found in the BDC & ICM modules. It did NOT require going to the EXPERT side. It was simple selections found in the aforementioned modules (BDC & ICM) under “DRIVING MODES”:
