This **Factory Hidden Plug** Is About To Change Everything For BMW Owner's

[@branjustoc6675]

But wouldn’t your car have to have the sensors already installed in order for the drive assist to work along with the projector for the HUD

[@MrDosSantos991]

But you still need the hud, sensors, and other stuff to make it work right?

[@PyroSyndicate]

l love your videos but lets be honest all of your titles are 100% clickbait! :D but amazing video as usual.

[@BryanChance]

I agree. it’s all very clickbaity, but at least some useful info. LOL in this video, that plug is what 2 or 3 wires, it can’t be the interface to the driving assistant panel or module. Besides, you wont have parking the physical sensors even if you this plug

[@RbNetEngr]

I agree this was a clickbait video. About 60 seconds of useful info (where this connector is, and what it is used for). The video would have been useful if he provided the part number for the module that plugs into the cable, and showed how to install it and code the new functions.

[@mrtennessee1988]

Or just buy a car with the assigned options 🤷🏽

[@HansCSchellenberg]

Is that the plug that makes BMW's reliable and stops all the oil leaks?

[@benbaselet2026]

Yes, but only for full electric vehicles.

[@pathogenikc5075]

Good lord my bmw has never stopped leaking no matter how often or how many seals I replace. It’s a nightmare

[@mrsippy9526]

Just sold my 2008 bmw328i. Never had any issues.

[@Star_Taro]

Impossible

[@frozensunset]

Lol they are trash huh

[@JeffTrop]

Thanks, Dean. I had a 2016 US model 320i F20 as one of our test cars for tuning. In the sun I can see in certain angles on the dash the late departure assist and other features that were disabled, embedded in there similar to my 335i's other features that I didn't know were so simple to upgrade. I wish I would have known this then. This would be a no-brainer. At least the tuning upgrade worked great and it was making 328i+ performance numbers with very little effort. Another oddity about the 320i is that it has slightly less sound-deadening material than the 328i. So they cut corners in odd ways. It was lighter with higher compression, so dialing up the boost and fueling on that N20 made it a really fun car, especially with a 6-speed manual. I kept all OEM badges and upset a lot of people :) Ultimate Sleeper.

[@SforzaCiriaco13]

I think you would need more than the module and the vibration steering wheel , so for example the Kafas camera to detect the road lines, the module can not work without it. Am I right? Thanks a lot for the vídeo.

[@barrackb0325]

You will need the front collision sensors and the sensor in the windshield. Without those, that plug is useless.

[@dnkykng585]

Show us how its done. We are visual learners.

[@MotoJoyS1krr]

Would be nice to see. 👍

[@mondeo984]

If you retrofit HUD you need to replace the windscreen as well. HUD uses a special windscreen.

[@ThatLennyBoi]

Nah, there are special sticker films for that.

[@toschk8648]

True, HUD Windscreens have a special geometry of the layer between both glasses. The option to put a sticker on the windscreen is only for cheap aftermarket systems. No BMW Mercedes or VAG will come with a sticker !!!!

[@NickAcevedomusic]

@@ThatLennyBoi Can you link me to it? My X3 has the HUD but I had my windshield replaced and got a replica non BMW windshield. It causes a double image. I wouldn't mind using a film as long as it's not complete trash lol.

[@woodyahh2110]

Notice how there are no answers to your questions

[@gouldianuk9875]

@@woodyahh2110 probably because it’s not just a simple case of retrofitting a panel as it’s made out to be, it’s sensors etc and for HUD a completely different windscreen etc, then coding too. People will see this and start hacking their dashboards just to find out it still doesn’t work 😂

[@hidri86]

So you saying all I need is to buy the control panel and the active cruise control will work ?? At the moment the car only has HUD button

[@mr.julien245]

Can this be done in '14 F02n (750LI)? Already have HUD,park assist and rear cam but no assist option. NEED THESE OPTIONS!!

[@azimmusthapha365]

Like lots of information I have a old Bmw 320i 2006 with 57000km on the clock I want to put front fog is the wiring there or must rewire and relay and fuses and control switch on dash any help thanks

[@jaydavis4752]

I would like you to fit a driving assistant packed to my F32 Grand Coupe bmw 4 series. Mime is the basic model 420d model. But I've wanted something like this on my car with the side mirrors that can fold in. Could you tell how much all this would cost me in parts and labour? Would be possible to get cameras fitted too?

[@davidhasenleder3401]

You helped me solve my issue with my 2007 BMW X3 si 3.0L. The eccentric cam shaft sensor was the issue with rough idle, dying when coming to a stop, erratic sluggish engine operation. It all disappeared when I changed that sensor out under the valve cover. Thanks, David Dickinson,Texas.

[@frozensunset]

I have the same issue....

[@palwindersingh2552]

Hey Dean, great tip👍🏻 And I know a lot of info to put in here but, Can you just post a comment or in video description, the models it supports these features, for example: F10: models; probable sensors already there f30: models; probable sensors already there Etc and so on. It would be very helpful, as it will be generalized based on series. Thanks 👍🏻

My bmw e90 it doesn't movie if i put on D or R is just hidleling so what can be the problem

[@pssita]

My only question.. can you tap into this for power? I'm thinking about an easy place to wire up for a dashcam. I've already tapped into my rear view mirror.

[@randomxaos]

I'm a newbie BMW (e92 coupe 328i) owner and getting heavily into retrofitting and of course repairs. I don't fully understand what "retrofit" applications this plug offers. (Don't know if I structured that sentence properly. In other words, what can I now do (that I couldn't do before) now that I know where this plug is located?

[@baldisaerodynamic9692]

Dont forget the 2015 and up F30 are prewired for paddle shifters. add wheel with paddles, code the transmission and good to go

[@majdo328i9]

That's why i keep finding extra wires and plugs also in my older models

[@mypandt]

Have you had experience adding the driving assistant Professional to a 2023 X7?

[@jaypayne2652]

Hi iv got a bmw 630i 05 plate how how is it to find an aux as iv looked all over the car and not found 1

[@malp6280]

nothings going to work just by attaching the control panel to the wiring loom & coding it all in, you'll need all the sensors & necessary brackets/panelling to fit such parts... I'd have also thought that cutting the current interior trim out would also lead to some possible vibration, ie an oem or aftermarket panel with such control unit cut-out already in place wouldn't just be a cut-out slot, but have re-enforcement's/attachment points for the control unit to fit snug..

[@Tec2Nut]

How can I find the part no for a M heated steering wheel with vibration, looking for a used-one for my G11

[@MatthewH-h5m]

Hi will it work on a x1 2018 ,would love front sensors

I have 2018 x5 so what module I need to buy to plug-in to that thanks

[@ruvdan]

what module will I have to buy to plug this wire into? also, if it adds blind spot monitoring and lane change assist, wouldn’t I have to get the new mirror’s that have the light for lane change?

I live in the US I wish the video went into more detail like coding. USA is very limited in some parts with the Bmw community.I have a 2018, 430i it looks like it has just about every possible sensor on the car already preinstalled, but the owner didn’t get the full driver assistance package.. they just got park assist so the brake booster doesn’t have a adaptive cruise control, and neither the radar sensor in the front bumper but it looks like all else is there I wish there was a way to contact you or talk to somebody that could help me walk through and decipher what I have

[@Thenameonthegraveisarchstanton]

No one cares🤣

[@hollywoodstarfish]

BMW factory wouldn’t even change my badges to the 50th anniversary M badge. I asked before paint. They said it already had a vin and I couldn’t change features after it hit the production line. 😂 rules are rules! Great channel!

this is what i noticed already, I have a BMW 220i and no IDrive, so no Display. Asked BMW if this could be retrofitted they told me it wasn't possible. later learned you just had to buy the hardware make a cutout on the dash and put everything in...

[@hero1876]

If the car hasn't fitted sensors, how the drive assist will work just with the control panel?

[@DREDLESSONE]

Hey Dean I watch you all the time. I got the upgraded panel but what do you use to code everything in or is it plug and play?

[@lewymartain8267]

You need a £400 OBDS scanning unit. And you also need codes to reset and set you also need to check you have the sensors for all the functions all over the car. Take no notice of this vid if you ever plan on getting your vehicle serviced at BMW Mapping and interfering with the OBC is illegal. Things like this also fail your Warranty.
