Evening all, I’m on the hunt for a garage that does custom coding, I have a 2015 w205 and have just had the steering wheel and ambient lights from a 2019 installed into my car but need the coding done to make both work, also need to reset the reverse camera software as it seems to be glitching. I’ve lost count of the garages that code BMW’s but can’t seem to find any in the UK that work on Merc’s, anyone had experience with this out there?!

the BM software for every model ever made - enabling one to play and thus add / change features - is for all to find on servers in NZ for free - as indeed is fake copies of the dealer tools to load on your laptop

it is NOTHING like that for Mercedes - if what u want was legitimately fitted to an exact same (higher spec) model and you have fitted ALL the wiring and modules just like Mercedes did at the factory - then there are a few places that can help - but they are not cheap and will NOT do it if its homemade looms and bits off a later car

your choice of words "custom coding" is also tenuous - flashing software off a different model, or overwriting vehicle details with another and or getting modules from another car to function on different / older vehicle is not coding

coding is ticking boxes in modules to turn on and off features - and unfortunately Merc didn't really write the car's software like this
