Using Bimmercode to modify the BMW i8 computer modules

Many of my viewers have reached out to ask how to buy exotic cars like the ones I have owned. I admit that I didn't know much about how to buy an exotic car when I bought my first one. I was worried about losing a lot of money to depreciation, maintenance and repairs. I sought out the advice of others and the best recommendation I received was to become a member Exotic Car Hacks. I joined in 2020 and learned all the tips and tricks on how to get into and out of exotic cars for the least cost. It worked!

DIY maintain your BMW at your own risk.    • BMW shut down NewTIS. DIY'ers beware!   In this video, I use the Bimmercode application on my Android device, as well as the Veepeak OBDII Bluetooth adapter, in order to modify the computer modules in the BMW i8. Bimmercode is available for both iPhone and Android, and requires that the phone be placed in Airplane Mode, with Wifi disabled, but only Bluetooth enabled. Veepeak Bluetooth can be discovered by the phone and paired. After that, I recommend stopping any applications that are running on the Android platform so that they don't interfere with the Bimmercode application. The video goes into the several codes that I modified on my BMW i8. Bimmercode is different from Bimmerlink. Bimmerlink is an iOS Apple Only program that offers some coding, as well. One coding feature that Bimmerlink provides is the ability to open the exhaust flap, which Bimmercode does not provide.
