Hi guys,
Today, my 8.8” screen from eBay arrived!

First, I ran into some trouble with only half of the screen showing. Apparently others have had this problem when using BimmerCode.
After using E-Sys to do the (exact same) coding, it works. It even plays nicely with my Andream CarPlay MMI.

Now that everything’s working, I’ve ordered the rest of the parts needed.
You need the bigger CID: 65509367674
And the plastic trim: 65509354400
The required coding options are:
- DISPLAY_SIZE_RESOLUTION = 8.8_1280x480
- DISPLAY_VARIANTE = breites_display
Did you program the headunit?
That is correct. Sometimes it can help to code first, disconnect the negative pole on the battery, then swap the screens and reconnect the battery.
If that doesn’t work, then maybe you have bought the wrong screen? Which headunit do you have (can you send a picture of the menu?) and what is the part nr of the screen you bought?
Is using e-sys difficult?? I want to upgrade my display to 8.8 but not sure whether to upgrade if I have to program it using e-sys. Does BimmerCode work for some vehicles or does it have to be done by e-sys
