Competition package coding

Dropped off my 2014 CP @ the local dealer. They had to refresh my software as sunroof was not auto-close anymore. How do I know if it was flashed back with the correct Competition Package software?

I know its a bit of a dumb question, but I'm dealing with not very trustworthy folks over there....

Cheers!

The system the dealer uses is vin based, so there is no way for them to mess it up. It will actually back-up all the settings (including the profiles) before the update.

Somewhere in the back of my head I can hear the faint sound of a distance dealership tech announcing "Challenge accepted!"

Not dumb, we all learn something pretty often here.

If you research how to coding you'll learn a lot about it and understand how it works. Bimmerfest coding forum is the best place for that.

It could be that your sunroof just needed to be reinitialized.
