This is related to famous BMW B48 wastegate rattle fix - BMW released an updated spring repair kit with part number 11655A7A286 and ISTA says to check the following repair manual - SEL-SEL-P-11-20000779619991

Mini R56 2009 1.6 D ABS Module Coding

Sat, 24 May 2025 15:06:54 +0000

Hi,

I bought a 2009 Mini R56 1.6D with the known ABS module issue. I’m getting error 0x5DE3 (24035) – DSC Unit Encoding Error when trying to code a used ABS module with the exact same part number as the original one.

Everything goes fine in ISTA/P – programming completes successfully, but when it comes to coding, I always get a coding error.

In ISTA+, all sensor tests and calibrations (including steering angle sensor and ABS unit tests) pass without any issues.

I also tried using NCS Expert but had no luck – same error shows up.

What could be causing this? Should I try another module and attempt coding again, or maybe you professionals already know a proven solution to this issue?

Any help would be appreciated!

Hello,

During a recent retrofit of a reversing camera to my 1-Servies F40 128Ti, the plug that connects to the boot release switch has been damaged.

Need Help On Seat Module Coding

Fri, 07 Feb 2025 13:34:57 +0000

Hi Everyone,

I have a coding issue with my retrofitted 456 option front driver comfort seat module ( originally seat was 459 ) after the dealer updated my software during an engine oil service

I tried the following step to VO code but no gain

Connect => Read FA (VO) => Activate FA (VO) => Read SVT (ECU)=> Left-Click on GWS => Click on "Detect CAF for SWE" => Select the CAFD from latest I-Level shown (bottom) => Select OK => Right-Click on GWS (the ECU itself not the underlying CAFD) => Select CODE.

Here is the log file report after VO code failed

the software update caused my electric second-row seat ( my car comes with third-row seat option 4UB ) switch malfunction as the driver seat just wont move forward to let the second-row seat backrest to fold down.

As final resolve, I VO code back original 459 and the second-row electric seat switch function back to normal, but ... now my driver seat cannot move at all now and I cant VO code the module as it kept showing " cdDeplo FinishedWithError , cafd ... Not Executable"

Appreciate if some expert could enlighten me here on the coding solution as I totally out of my mind now : (
