BMW G Series (All Models) Coding — Hidden Features, CarPlay & More
Independent coding for the BMW G Series (All Models) (2017 onwards) in Dublin and across Ireland. iDrive 6 on the earliest builds, iDrive 7 (ID7) on most, iDrive 8 on the newest. In person at the car or our workshop off the N7, or remotely over ENET.
In person across Dublin, Kildare, Wicklow & Meath · remote across Ireland
G-series cars ship with iDrive 7/8 where BMW gates many features behind options and subscriptions — which makes coding especially rewarding: wireless CarPlay behaviour, extended displays, comfort functions and camera options can often be enabled on the equipment already in the car. We code G bodies in person or remotely over ENET.
Every job starts with your exact build: send the model year and VIN and we confirm which features your G-series BMW supports before anything is booked. Work is done in person around Dublin and the surrounding counties, at our workshop at Greenogue Business Park (Rathcoole, off the N7), or remotely over ENET anywhere in Ireland. Everything is reversible and you pay on completion, once you have seen it working.

Frequently asked questions
Is coding safe on a G series still under warranty?
Coding changes settings that already exist in the car and is fully reversible — we can return everything to factory before a dealer visit. Tell us the build and we will be straight about what is sensible on a warranty car.
How much does coding a G-series BMW cost?
It depends on the features: single items like CarPlay activation start from €120, diagnostics from €80, and multi-feature sessions are priced as a bundle. We confirm the price up front from your build.
Can my G-series BMW be coded remotely?
Most software features, yes — you connect a Windows laptop and an ENET cable to the OBD port and we code over a screen-share session. Hardware retrofits need the car in person.
Is the coding reversible?
Fully. Every change adjusts parameters that already exist in the car, and we can return any setting to factory — for example before a dealer visit.
What is possible depends on your exact model, year, head unit (NBT, NBT Evo or MGU) and software version, plus any installed hardware. We confirm compatibility from your model, year and VIN before any work starts.
