Hi All, I'm looking for instructions on how to disable Comfort Access using Bimmercode. Rash of car thefts by spoofing the code btwn key fob and car. I want to turn off CA and simply use the fob push-buttons to lock/unlock the car. I've looked around and seen hints that it is possible, but no instructoons. I've looked into Bimmercode and found Comfort Opening/Closing but that mentions that it also operates *with* Comfort Access, leading me to believe that Comfort Access is not the same as Comfort Closing. TIA

 

what build is your car? 2019 and never have sleeping keys. So i wouldn’t try to turn it of because they shouln’t be able to copy when the key lies still at home. Older ones are always active. You can test this simply by putting your key on the roof of your car close to the door and first test if you can open your car. Then close it and wait 2 miutes without touching or moving the key. Then try again opening car with acces on your door. If it doesn’t open you have the never safer keys. If it opens then i can understand turning off CA. But the again you could go for a special sealing key case where signals don’t ho out.

 

Thank you for the reply.

My F60 SE is a 2018, so maybe not a motion sensing fob. I'll check as you've recommended. If it is an older version that is always on, I'll need to buy 2 newer fobs and have them coded to the car and disable the existing fobs. I'd also like to try coding the new ones with Bimmercode if possible.

Either way, I'd still like to see if I can disable CA through Bimmercode so I can have some time to shop for new fobs if they're needed.

 

Curiosity got the better of me, I did this experiment during lunch.

I placed the fob on the front dr. tire, tested to see if the door would open/close/lock properly with it there. Set a timer, tried at 5 minutes.
The door opened without movement to the fob.

So - I'm looking for instructions/information on how to disable CA via Bimmercode until I can purchase 2 new fobs. Anyone have coding instructions for this? TIA


Edit: Reply from the helpful folks at Bimmercode support that it cannot code VO. So no way to disable Comfort Access with Bimmercode.

 

Curious, can Bimmer Code adjust Blinker sound and silence the horn when locking car with engine on? They are both stupid loud.
