Hey guys, first post here....

I have a doubt: under the "01 Identification" menu, under the"conv. index" entry, I get a completely different mileage than the "official" mileage of my car, about 30k Km more.... 18k vs 48k, quite a big difference!

What does this mean? What does the "Conv. index" entry stand for?

Please guys help me out, I bought the car last month, I want to know if the dealer has cheated me or what

Is there any way to get the software version of the navigation system from the hidden menu? I didn't notice anything relevant in the video

"Software reset" will clear all the recorded ECU faults? Any danger to use this command?

Thanks for this info. Just got M135 so not had time to play yet but coolant temp. would have come in useful in previous car as might have diagnosed water pump failure earlier.

Time to watch video & learn. Next step I suppose is to pick up error code software.

What about other extended display features, the famous fuel consumption graphics, for instance: do you ever see it?

It looks like your extended instrument panel is not recognized by the software.

Do you have "S6WAA Instrumentenkombi mit erweitertem Umfang Instrument cluster, expanded equipment" option in your car's factory specification? I would guess it's been retrofitted, just dully.

Yes I do have the 6WA Instrument Cluster W. Extended Cont. In your f21, do you see more than 1 line of temperatures?

No I don't but it's all right as I don't have the extended panel either. The way it's shown to you looks quite similar to the basic display. Compare to the picture attached (not mine).

I'm actually not sure that I've seen an f20/f21 with more than one line of data, maybe because our dashboard is pretty small?

Perhaps your cars mileage has been "clocked".

Can this option be coded to remain active or visible once enabled?
