Hi Grant , I'm looking at the 6WB cluster , i've read that it does not display the speed unless you're in sport mode .. is this correct ? please can you give any feedback you have from fitting it and any problems that might have surfaced since the install . also , was this a "virginized" cluster , IE re-set to work in the new car ? thanks for the vids , they're really cool Jon
@JohnsonMotorsports2 жыл бұрын
Hey, I am not running a 6wb cluster at the moment, but I am familiar with how they function. The cluster will display speed in every mode, although Sport modes will be a numerical display instead of the normal needle sweep. Install is simple, you will just want to make sure the cluster has been virginized and you will need to have your Kombi ECU updated to run the 6wb cluster.

That BMW 6WB cluster for the F10 is a joke! I have it in my F10 and trying it out from before buying it to see if I like it, then i could buy it for way less than 1K if I decide to.... Well let me tell you, BMW really went cheapo on this cluster..... 1. Its NOT HD and not even clear/sharp image, it produces blurry detail and washed out colors. 2. Not that bright. Driving in the day time you hardly see what's displaying and it's freakin' annoying! 3. You get bored quick and not get impressed. 4. The colors are washed out like I said and are not deep in colors contrast. Making the cluster seem like a cheap product. 5. The orange is way off and not the orange of the classic BMW and not enjoyable. 6. When switching to Sport mode, screen becomes red but nothing special. 7. Really looks out of place, the cluster has nothing BMW oriented and makes the F10 look non BMW! 8. Way overpriced for something poorly made and coming from BMW as their second version (which doesn't fit F10 models) have a better sharper screen, sharper details and looks just a little bit better but still you get bored quick! I will continue using the 6WA cluster as that still is semi-analog/digital and still looks amazing and perfect for any F10 and sticks true to BMW roots! *** 6WB Cluster = Not worth it!

So there are a few methods you can use to code extra features on your BMW. The easiest method is Bimmercode, which requires you to purchase an app and a OBD2 dongle. If you search Bimmercode on KZbin, there are tons of videos showing you how the process works. If you have an Enet cable, you can do most of this coding for free, but it takes knowledge and research to do this programming with a program called Esys.
