X431 coding
Anyone else do coding with an X431 unit? I've managed to disable stop/start and changed the number of one touch signals from 3 to 5. Wondering what else can be done. I'd really like to have the default drive mode be sport instead of economy, as well as code flashing brake lights during hard braking, for example.

You can turn off the seatbelt reminder
stop the front seats from going upright when the back seat gets folded down (sedan)
On my W211 I was able to set the fog lights to stay on when the high beams are on; don't recall if I was able to do that to my W212 sedan or not...

Be careful exploring with LAUNCH as you can reset some modules and require reinitialization, often requiring other actions. Initializing/calibrating radar for Distronic+ is one such function.

If you want that done, you will need to have it programmed. You can make some configuration changes with LAUNCH X431, but other changes need to be done with programming. I recommend you contact @BenzNinja for programming changes. I had him reprogram my transmission to add Sport+ (a.k.a., Agility), last setting keep, and throttle tweak, and it has been amazing.
