Coding with 'Carly for BMW' (North West, UK)

[Jasper ham]

Hi Edg3 - I am local (Wirral) and have an e89 with comfort access, I can open and close the roof from the key, but want I want is to open and close the roof whilst moving. I read that this is available on the e89 upto about 20 mph, can you confirm if this can be done in Carly?

This is possible with coding up to 30mph but it does warn you that you need the facelift model to do this due to the build/structure of the mechanism. It safe to do so at 20mph as I have this coded.

On that note, I have the Carly and in the Cambridge area so if anyone wants to do a little coding.................

Andy thanks for the reply, would be interested in doing this but Cambridge is a bit far for me lol. In Carly is it just in the comfort access menu then?

I don't understand why people are saying it's expensive? The cost of the app and cable is probably less that the cost of one visit to the dealer to get just one change programmed (well at least it is in this neck of the woods), and you get to keep the software and change things as often as you want (and back again if you're not happy or change your mind later on). It also does some diagnostic work, and can reset many error codes. I think it's a great 'tool' to have in the kit.

On my iphone, it's in the convertible section. It reads:

Speed limit roof open/close
- 6kph / 4mph
- 30kph / 19mph
50kph / 31 mph

Speed limit for closing / opening the roof while driving. For pre-facelift models 30 kph is recommended, due to the less stable construction of the roof. (Codable in CTM)

I hope this helps.

Where are you located?

 

[Thunderous One]

I think it would be very fair indeed and saves on the research of what can/could be done as no doubt you would have done all required research.
Shame for me though as I live in Northampton.

I live in Wrexham near the original OP and we are interested in a bit of Carly work
