Mini Coding

Hi, Can anyone recommend a coder that can activate steering wheel buttons as not working. I am aware of Bimmercode & Carly, Im actually looking to see if anyone can do it for me or give the codes to activate buttons?

BMW ISTA should allow you to do it. Alternatively contact B&M centre and they’ll be able to code it for you

Massive thanks to Mini William for recommending B&M Centre in Glasgow. I want to say I had a car with no buttons on wheel though through screen I have Sat Nav & Phone so made the decision to buy a wheel that had the buttons. Then through Bimmercode (Expert Mode) I got the volume buttons to work however nothing else. Mini William recommended talking to these guys so I did, I spoke with Andrew there and he was fantastic, I left the car for them to do their bit and everything works now, Cruise Control / Voice Button / Phone & forward - back buttons.

I am so happy that this adds that bit these cars should all have in this day & age, its now up to a standard that meets modern requirements. Thanks again Mini William and a shout out to these guys @ B&M Glasgow (Andrew) for all his help.

FYI remember if a member and get work done you get 10% off!

Please dont ask costs as it's not my place to discuss however I was very happy and didn't feel I paid too much. Speak to them and sure they will keep you right. B&M Centre Glasgow 01412377654

Humble apologies to anyone not happy with comments, not intended to offend. In my view we now live in a World where we constantly walk on broken glass and can offend people with just a look. #bring back the 80s/90s

That may change soon as Douglas has a daughter who I am sure will be into MINI/BMW’s as much as her Dad
