Did you code the turn signal (number of blinks 3,5,7) with just a lite press of the stalk). Easy entry, or the Welcome Sound? If you did the Welcome Sound which one did you get, chimes or Heartbeat? You can code the duration of the massage seats too. You can also turn off the white light bar above the front door speaker. Double Beep when unlocking the front doors. Emergency brake light flash and low and high beams on at the same time...and my favorite coded off the Soundakator...and enable the Sport Display in HUD...cant remember all the others.

I changed the turn signal to 5 (there wasn't anything available past 5...not that I need any more). I don't like easy entry so kept that off, and my car already came with the heartbeat welcome sound. I did a few other long code things to get rid of the lap timer in the HUD and give me the acceleration meter in the gauges. Hmm what else...oh I tried to switch it so the rear lights stay on while your front DRL are on, but it said mine was already set up like that (I'll have to check tomorrow during the day). I'm going to play around some more tonight once my wife falls asleep lol

Do a full backup, can be useful one day.

Just did one. Does this save every setting in the car? I'm assuming not your personalized settings (seats, stereo settings, etc etc)?

It gets you back to a known good state if you ever screw something up by mistake. I think the settings you listed are tied to your account in the cloud, not to the car modules.

After my 6 free credits this morning my total is (drum roll, please) . . .




Truth In Advertising: Not all of these credits were free — I think when I bought the OBD version 2 I also got 1,000 bonus credits. That said, I have no idea how many credits I’ve used in setting different parameters or trying different Apps.

At this point, I just open the OBD app in the morning and click through the ads over coffee or other “things.”

They do add up.

Got a good chuckle out of this solution for automating the defeat of the AutoStop feature on Reddit.
