OBD2 app?

[Coreyride]

Ok so, im looking for suggestions for an OBD2 app.  I want to use it to check for codes (duhhhh) and mainly to adjust features.  The main feature i want to turn off is the one that went on when I changed the daytime running lights to LEDs.  Or is there something else I can do about the light code?

Bimmercode is going to be one of the better options, It is what I use on both my wife's F56 and my R58

And does anyone know how to turn the function that checks on the lights off?  I'm getting cc id-131 because I'm using led light's 

  Thanks

Ok, never mind.. I found CANbus error free lights on amazon that I installed and the light turned off.

1975-mini, i'm wondering what additional  features the app can add to your mini?

There are some good youtube videos on Bimmercode options, I would check those out for sure, I coded my JCW to turn the auto start/stop off as default. That way every time I start my car I don't have to flip the switch, you can also code your rear fog lights to act as brake lights on some models.

 

It really depends on the model you have and how much "coding" you are comfortable doing.

I have a 2011 Cooper S (R57), when it comes to coding.  I need too learn but, all the AI sites and Google help.  I also want to see if its worth the money...  I'm a hands-on person.

Makes sense, I think its important especially with things like coders, to have an idea of what you are getting before you spend the money and plug something into your car. 

 

I would encourage you to come to some open events and talk to some of the club members. I have an F56 so my experience and options are going to be different than yours. Finding someone with a similar platform will help. The next club run is August 30, if you can join it looks like it will be a good turn out and probably some folks that can point you in the right direction.
