'Refresh' coding

Hi All,
i'm not sure if refresh is the best word to describe. I encountered few times that when i changed to sport+, the suspension or steering feeling abit sluggish. usually its heavier and the adaptive suspension is hard. Ever once i connect to bimmercode to change some coding, then it is back to normal. Do i have to 'refresh' the coding once in awhile or there are something that caused this that i am not aware? Btw, im driving a M135i 2013 model.

Sidetracking abit, i know that as a new member i dont have the DM privilage. May i know how many post or what to do for me to be able to use the dm function in this forum?

Thanks in adv.

No, should not have to refresh the coding.

If this was necessary owners who could not do it themselves would have to use a BMW dealer and pay to have it done.

How old is your 12v battery?

There is a date code on the battery.

It was two digits - K7 which is month K, year 2017 on my BMW branded AGM battery.

Months are in alphabetical order (I is missed ) so January is A, and K is October etc.

The two digits might be embedded in a longer sequence.
