F30 2013 KEYS LOST - ANYONE WHO CAN CODE NEW KEYS???

[MikeR]

:skit: wow lost both sets of keys...when you get new ones. get a dozen made mate. I dont even want to know how you lose both sets of keys, Im anal about car keys, I keep them very safe - its a big investment to lose the car that goes with the keys.

 

[MikeR]

:thumbdo: on a serious note - ive been thinking about this matter of yours I believe you need to invest in a whole bunch of these small devices and fix it to every key you have.

Yeah you might have to wait a loooooong time for an update. Like I said before, the FEM hasn't been cracked yet, so no way you can do keys outside of BMW.

No one, in the world, can do F20 and F30 keys.

What does BMW want for a key?

R15 000

Well, as it turns out, doing F20 and F30 keys outside of BMW will be possible in the near future. It seems one company in Russia has cracked it a few weeks back. I'm not sure of the exact process involved though, but it'll all become clearer over the next few months.

Hi Guys,

I have just lost my 2nd key for my car and have checked all key programmers i know but no seems to be able to assist with my 2013 F30 as they say it doesn't use CAS. Most of them can do F10,F20 and some of the newer X's but not F30.

As usual the dealers what a hack of a lot and YES i know i should have made a spare as soon as i lost the 1st key.

Looking forward to a solution.

Hi bro can you send me your cell no . I have the same problem

[Ratslaaf]

Still not possible, at least not in SA

 

[D.R.E]

I have a tool that can do it. Just never done it before.

 

[D.R.E]

This is the tool I have:

[Ratslaaf]

Nope, Digimaster can't do FEM based cars. This would be F15, F20 and F30. Go read that referenced table nicely.

BMW Explorer since version 14.05.08 allows users to program ignition key for FEM / BDC

Key programming into FEM / BDC is divided into several stages
1 Preparation of FEM / BDC thru OBD
2 Preparation of FEM / BDC using programmer (Reading BACKUP)
3 Programming FEM / BDC with BMW-Explorer via OBD
4 Write back BACKUP with the programmer
5 Key programming thru OBD

Paragraph 1:
It is necessary to perform a quick test , go to the FEM / BDC and click the "Key learning" button,
The program will check for a supported version of the unit, prepare the unit for the next procedure, and will display the message "Read Eeprom and upload in calc".

Paragraph 2:
Remove the FEM / BDC unit as described HERE. Disassemble the FEM / BDC unit as described in THIS SECTION.
Read 95128/95256 Eeprom (pictured in the upper right corner) using programmer
(Orange5 Xprog or others that supports Eeprom 95128/95256).
Download Eeprom into BMW-Explorer, and save EEprom and write it back into the FEM / BDC.

Paragraph 3:
Install the unit on the car in the reverse order of removal, and connect BMW-Explorer via OBD.
The car probably will not respond to the key, do not get scared!
Connect to FEM, press "Reset mileage", Explorer will propose to program the FEM / BDC, agree and wait for the programming to finish.
After successful programming, the program will write to you "Return the saved original Eeprom", then remove FEM again and using programmer, return the previously read contents of EEprom 95128/95256. Then you can install the unit back to the car.

Sometimes it is possible that after the last manipulation the FEM / BDC will stop responding to the diagnostics, then you need to flash this EEprom into the unit and program the unit with Esys or ISTA-P and start the unit preparation from step 1.
P.S: Follow the instructions and save your time.

Paragraph 4:
Connect to the FEM / BDC control unit using the BMW-explorer, press "Extra options" then "Key learning". Key programming window will open and will read the key data we need for programming.
If you have a working key, then you need to bring it to the emergency coil as pictured below and press the "Read crypto key" button.
About successful reading of the "Crypto" BMW-Explorer show "Crypto Ok" message.
If you do not have a working key, then you need to read the ISN from the DME and enter it into the "ISN from DME" window.
You can also enter 8 bytes of the "crypto" manually.
Now you can start to learn keys. To do this we must select a free track for the key and press "Learn key", bring a new key to the emergency coil on the steering column.

Yes, BMW Explorer does have a a way now to do FEM based keys. This feature was released two months ago for owners of the product. It's not bulletproof yet, and not a simple process as seen by the post above.

Boetie from Budler Motorsport told me yesterday that he makes F30 keys now.:coolShake:

Yanhua (the company who manufactured Digimaster 3) made a new tool- the new BMW-FEM obd programmer

X5 F15 2014-2017
X6 F16 2015-2017

too good to be true???

sorry if the link breaks the rules

 

[Ratslaaf]

Hehe, it's not half price, it's a 10th of the price of a fully loaded Explorer or Autohex setup. Then again, it's only one tool with one purpose. The big ticket tools are actually a suite of tools and do a lot more than just make keys.
