So I took my 328 in for Parking Distance Beeper error (I don't know the official name for it) but it constantly says I'm surrounded...Also to change my engine oil...I'm at 7500 miles...ALSO, to disable the Auto Start Stop. However, the guys at the dealership called me today and said they'll have to hold onto my car longer because they weren't able to properly code the vehicle with ASS disabling code...My questions is..is it that difficult?

Also, I'm a first time BMW owner and my current loaner car is a 2011 335i and WOW love the Twin Turbo Engine, stiffness in the steering wheel, and the SOUND!

they gotta request some code from germany or something, they said might have to leave it over night but just took 4 hrs in the end.

yeah they already requested and received the code...but he just said "it failed" and will try again tomorrow since they're closing now...

Why does it require a "code from germany" when the dealer does it? DIYers seem to be doing it without this "code".

Mine turned out to be an all week affair... ended up really good for me, but it's a matter of not having the most up to date software. Good luck!
