hugo_nz 166 Report post Posted August 10, 2018 My 6-er has combox and connected drive etc, but was not ordered with Apps (option SA6NR). BimmerTech and the like charge upwards of $399 US to do this retrofit...but BMW is willing to do an official retrofit for $680 NZ. That includes the FSC code from BMW and coding. Seems like only a couple of $$$ difference, BUT doing it through BMW means that your car's VIN is updated on the master database and you don't run the risk of your retrofit apps being wiped if your car's software is update in the future. Just some food for though. Happy Friday 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sobanoodle 45 Report post Posted August 10, 2018 Hello from a fellow 6-er owner! You can buy legit FSC codes online and code everything yourself. Will save yourself a fair bit. I know someone who supplies the following FSC codes: - FSC Kafas BE and BF - FSC for Speed-Limit Info Kafas2 7E - FSC for Kafas4 Speedlimit 11F / G11 G12 G30 G31 - FSC for Kafas4 WWA (Wrong Way Assist) 13E - FSC for Kafas4 Front Collision Warning (FCW) 13F - FSC for BMW Apps, Sirius Radio, EPS - FSC-Set for Retrofit CiC, NBT and NBT Evo with USB I did a dumb thing and ordered a 7E FSC code - the code was accepted without any issues, VO-coded the car BUT it appears that AU/NZ CIC maps do not have SLI data embedded in them ? Should have done a bit more research prior to... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess once I get a feel for enet (used ncs expert) I might end up doing my own retrofit coding ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a vaguely related note, are you aware if it is possible to code the cruise control to display speed in Kph instead of mph (as my UK import does now) - my speedo has been converted to a kph only version but it’s a small bugbear of mine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if VO-coding to Oceania specs will cure it, google will probably know the answer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure why cruise control shows mph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hugo_nz 166 Report post Posted September 5, 2018 It's possible with coding. One of the things I've done. I also have 6NR apps working after patching the headunit and creating all my own FSC codes (voice, navi, apps, etc). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder if VO-coding to Oceania specs will cure it, google will probably know the answer. Looks from googling as though it is difficult / impossible without removing / dissasembling the Kombi unit. Mine just has new gauge scales rather than a whole new unit, the 6WB head unit does appeal but not really wanting to pay $2k for a new one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
