Nice, yess I do want to just rid that start up menu with the head unit. This is perfect. I just hope this is not effecting anything idrive wise. Thx

[@radonvon3120]

Just curious I tried doing this on my 2019 jcw I have the excitement package and power mirrors but I activated this and coded it and it didn’t work, what might be the issue?

[@potatochobit]

can the passenger seat belt warning be disabled or set to a timer? anytime I hit a bump with my lunch box in the passenger seat it doesn't stop chiming...

[@motorv8N]

Very cool - thanks!

[@vt4954]

Can you change the chirp when locking/ unlocking? I don’t have a chirp at all.

[@paulinebyrnekennedy4544]

Could you use this to reset the F56 sat nav/radio/media infotainment system

[@indigoh5247]

I feel like of should've gone to specsavers. Nice vid.

Please someone tell me how can i close side mirror in minicooper D 2008. Still I can’t find it

[@korey1576]

Well done!

[@KevinonCars]

Appreciated!

[@melissamobberley2086]

I tried this on my countryman 17 & it didn't work??? Any advice??

[@nayap.7061]

Hi Kelvin, can I pls ask if i plug this one connector on to my mini and adjust all the features that I like to change, the mini service centre would know when I bring the car in for service as I would break the service plan that I still got like 2 years left.:(

[@gordonho5986]

Hi Kevin @5:39 I see the Auto Start Stop function by default. May I ask if you could change this to successful with the Free version of Bimmercode AND the OBD reader? its sooo irritating that i have to press the tab to manually turn off the auto start stop everytime i get into the car and stat it in the morning.

[@964cuplove]

A number of values you cannot reset once you entered a value and coded it. So the most important tip would be make a backup of the status quo before playing around ….

[@joaopego0408]

Tenho um mini f57 descapotável e não funciona o recolher dos espelhos 😞

[@patriciacanas1988]

Hi, I've been watching your video (Portugal) and i have sone questions . I have a mini f55 2016, adjust the mirror with the button on the driver's door, will I be able to activate the closing of the mirrors, is the engine there? can i do all these things? I have the simplest mini radio unfortunately

[@KevinonCars]

I think you can program the mirrors, since the button means you have powered mirrors.

[@Zosazat]

Does this device still usable in 2024? Like in F56?

[@f1f278]

So all the mini jcws come with folding mirrors from factory and only set if optioned???

[@KevinonCars]

Any mini with the automatic mirror option can be coded to do that

[@triodesbois4405]

Hi Kevin. Can we unlock the rear fog light of the f56 ?

[@triodesbois4405]

Précision i ve got the canadian version

[@aron1927]

Would the folding mirrors work on my JCW

[@KevinonCars]

yup it will!

[@lisabroadwater9163]

Kevin, I have a 2014 Mini Cooper s and I have the click n drive to hold my phone, that is until I upgraded to the iPhone 13 pro plus. on my old iPhone, I had to take my case off for it to fit. It was 3.06" wide, the 13 is 3.07" wide. Do you know of a company that I can get the piece that will hold my new iPhone?

[@gregh7387]

Why does Mini not activate the side mirrors if the motor is there?? How can I tell if my mirrors have this feature?

[@KevinonCars]

Yeah not sure about Mini's logic there. If you can adjust your mirror through a knob near the driver-side window switch, then it's powered. Otherwise, it's probably not.

[@gregh7387]

@@KevinonCars Thanks man, I don't have them :-( I would like to code my rear fogs that are not active.

[@joseluisgonzalez7586]

I’ve just bought the OBD connector and download the app but It ask me to pay 1,000 usd for use all the codes to any number of them. I jus want to fold the mirrors for my mini cooper JCW. Did you know if I can do it without buying the complete subscription?

[@VolvoProductSpecialist]

yes u can

[@cjfong425]

What year is your cooper? My 2019 S doesn't have the head unit options in bimmercode.

[@KevinonCars]

Mine is a 2016. Is yours optioned with navigation? I think you might need that for the head unit options to appear.

[@wtmke1ify]

which brand of phone mount are u using? thanks!

[@ryopang]

@@KevinonCars thanks - I thought you are mounting it not using the air vent as it look more closer to the wheel. so do you just clip into the vent?

[@KevinonCars]

@@ryopang yeah it just clips to the vents. I mean if it works it works lol

Hi, it works on a mini cooper f55 2015?

It should work if it has powered mirrors

Nope

[@964cuplove]

End of 2023 I got the Vgate vLinker MC OBDII Bluetooth OBD2 from Amazon and it works

[@thedronescene7474]

I have same codes on mine and they work good. My only wish is that the driver side mirror could also tilt down when in reverse. I dont get why only the passenger side tilt.

[@rubenohanlon]

Mine does this. Drives me crazy. Especially if I don’t want it to tilt down. Or if I do and it doesnt

[@johnv9854]

I remember on my BMW if you have the selector switch that chooses left/right mirror for the adjustments set to the passenger side the mirror wont tilt down.. if you set the switch to the middle or drivers side then it will tilt down.. check your switch

[@johnv9854]

@@rubenohanlon move the mirror selector switch to the pass side and the mirror shouldnt tilt down..

[@michellerae2309]

Passenger tilt is insanely helpful if you live in midtown/downtown with mostly street parking

@@rubenohanlon- if you switch the mirror adjust selector to the passenger side (right in my case) then it won’t tilt down when reversing….

Great video! Super helpful! Can I ask what is the reason the mirrors of my mini fail to fold/unfold after I locked and unlocked my car(after following your instructions)? Mine is 2019 mini copper s. Thank you!

[@KevinonCars]

Thanks! The most common reason I've heard from my viewers is that the car doesn't have electric mirrors optioned.

My Cooper S doesn't have sport mode so no pops and bangs, but the jcw pro exhaust. Is it possible to code it to sport mode and i then have pops and bangs? Doesn' have the drive select from factory…

The opening and closing "beeps" is that in the scanner buddy ? Have to keep checking if I've locked the car or not. 😂
