Also, I can open/close the trunk with the door mounted switch with no coding whatsoever as I've done that several times already. Granted I have a 2020 M850i but can't see that being a factor against the 2019s as this is base functionality.

Bloozeman, I stand corrected...my 2019 will open/close the windows/door locks with the key fob, but only open the trunk as you described. Same for the door mounted trunk switch... Thanks

if you code it, you can touch or pull the button either way with a short throw and it's open.

also the keys can open and close it. works on display key and regular fob.

Is there a thread somewhere that tells me the differences I get by having the laser headlights coded on a 2019 M850i? My Merc has the laser lights and they're pretty amazing.

Thanks!

OK Ben is sounding a bit like a superhero. Will do.

my car was recently updated (in the last month) by the dealership, so assuming I have the most recent version of OS, will the current version of Bimmercode app allow me to do much?

The CARLY app still won't code much of anything because of the update.

I suggest giving Ben a call r33_RGSport with a laptop and obd cable.

alternatively, yes bimmercode will work.

carly doesn't work.
