Very happy with BMWhat app

marklemac · 09-15-2014, 03:01 PM

ah ok the american settings. I'll give that a bash, thanks

marklemac · 09-18-2014, 09:52 AM

I was out and about today and the car felt a bit sluggish in very light throttle.

Fired up the app and I think I could see that the car was doing a DPF regen.

The soot when I launched the app was 21 grams and within 20 mins of driving it was down to around 3 grams.

I'm also curious as to the 'regeneration - last mileage' as mine shows it as 166780944.00 miles ? What's that all about ?

I'm upgrading to FRM2. Will this App be ok use for a fresh rebuild of the FRM or better to use another method ?

I think you will find, the 'm' in the distance display is for metres, not miles.
So that would be 104238 miles.

Does that make any sense?

marklemac · 09-18-2014, 02:54 PM

thanks Banana, that does make sense. You'd think the developer would do the calculation in the app !!

Has anyone got a dongle in cumbria?

With the amount of interest the developer would probably do very well by offering a group discount!

corasdad · 09-21-2014, 02:02 PM

can somebody confirm if this will work with my car its a 2006 -12-01 my car engine is M47 T2, I would like some bits coded but cant find a coder local so this would have been my next step

Anyone else ever had it where on this screen -

If I press the 'Check coding possibilities' nothing happens, just a white bit where I press.

Tried on my iPad and iPhone & got the same thing, managed to get it to check once & it took AGES to check & then said 0 ecu's compatible.

It also takes lots of attempts to connect, is it my £10 ebay adapter do we think?

Cheers

I think it's your ebay adaptor, mine used to do the same.

I came across a problem trying to code Shaun's car (gaza01) today at players. First of all his jb4 had disabled the ODB port (love this feature), and then I got an error message about BMW connected drive and it said I could only read the coding possibilities and would need the wired Android connection to code the car.
+1 for Android (damn you apple)

Dan- · 09-22-2014, 04:31 AM

So glad I didn't buy this for my iPhone, doesn't sound that great on Apple to be honest

JJ0063 · 09-22-2014, 04:32 AM

It seems to just be my adapter to be honest, it was a £10 ebay jobby. I might invest in the proper one eventually!

Some form of jail breaking for free apps?

Id actually leave that - its useful for holding down plastic sheet to the windscreen in the winter to keep it ice free.

Ajs_435d · 09-23-2014, 09:10 AM

Do you need full app on Android to do coding?

Cheers
