The iDrive system is used in many BMW and Rolls-Royce vehicles to control secondary systems like climate control, audio, navigation, and communication. It consists of a LCD panel and control knob. While iDrive has many useful functions, some additional "hidden" functions are not obvious to customers. A new diagnostic tool called EASYCODING can help BMW and Rolls-Royce owners access these hidden functions by connecting to the OBD port, selecting options in the software, and modifying parameters if needed.

1. Easycoding: BMW& Rolls Royce iDrive hidden function
BMW, ranging from the 3-series all the way up to the 7-series, uses an On-board Computer (OBC)
to provide the driver with up-to-moment data. The iDrive system is very useful if you wanted to
know the temperature, time of arrival, fuel consumption, etc.
Then what is iDrive? iDrive is a computer system used to control secondary vehicle systems (such
amenities as the climate (air conditioner§ and heater), the audio system (radio§ and CD player§),
the navigation§ system and communication§ system) in many current BMW cars as well as
current Rolls Royce models, as Rolls Royce is own by BMW.
The iDrive controls consists of a LCD panel mounted in the iDrive in the dashboard§ and a
controller knob mounted on the center console§. Very often people can not find some cool hidden
functions in iDrive even update the iDrive software.

• Remove Seat Belt Chime for Driver and Passenger
