Does anyone know which Cooper dealer programable option codes have been released by the factory yet?

Thanks for your help!

Check with your dealer to see which they have. Mine has the Daytime Running Lights only, with the software for the key and window functions on order.

I had my MINI programmed this past week at Crevier MINI in SoCal. Apparently, the had just received the software the week before.

I had the following programmed:

lock doors when driving off
speed sensetive wipers
windows down w/ remote key

I probably will go back and have them do one more thing:

unlock doors when parking brake applied.

I took delivery of a on-hand Mini on a Sunday... no service dept to program my options. My dealer says I have go back to get the opts enabled, but he's a 100 mile round trip, so I am trying as hard as I can to economize. :smile:

It must depend on what software your dealer has. I was able to get the "follow me home" lamps prgrammed at 40 seconds (if you have the headlights on while driving, they stay on 40 sec. after the car is turned off). The speed-sensitive wipers is factory programmed (got a printout for my car). But the daytime headlights was not an option, nor was the "comfort opening" of the windows and sunroof by holding the key in the door in unlock position. I contacted MINIUSA and they admitted that the comfort opening feature has been having bugs and is not yet available yet. I really could use that feature about now with it getting as hot as it has been! Ugh! ops:

If you are referring to the opening of windows and sunroof via remote button on key, I had this feature programmed at my dealer recently.

My remote came with the option of opening the sunroof and all windows by holding down the Mini logo on the key - try it to see if it works for you. Needs to be held down until the sunroof opens all the way (about 7-10seconds).

My dealer told me that they won't be able to program options into the car until they get a "Specialized Computer" in September? Any truth to this!?!

my mini came with the following already programmed:

moonroof and windows closes when key held lock position
the back hatch opens by holding down the unlock button on the key (but it is buggy though.. sometimes it works and somtimes not)
power windows auto open by just pressing it ones

I have an appointment at Mini of Concord in Northern California July 30 to program the some more..
