The seller is from Latvia, so theres a high chance that your wheel really is a stolen wheel from Norway. There has been a group of eastern europe people who break into new BMW’s in Norway and steal the wheels and iDrive, and most of those things On eBay from there abouts is stolen.

Hey, looking for some advice! Im planning on doing this steering wheel upgrade to my 1 series as I like the look and want to have cruise (i know I need cruise coding). Most f30 steering wheels seem to have paddles and my car is a manual, I know the paddles wont work which is fine (ill remove them most likely) but will have the paddle version confused the car? Will I HAVE to remove the paddles not to confuse the car?
This is why the insurance for these cars is ridiculously expensive in Sweden, people from eastern europe come up here and break into parked cars and basically empty them stuff that can be sold on EBay
Nice video! I don't really follow the new bimmers too closely but I checked this one out because it's an f30 and I have an e30. I love how the msport steering wheel looks pretty close to the og one and not clunky. You got a new sub!
Would the steering wheel (buttons, shifters, airbag) still work if I do not code it? Meaning like will it just have an airbag light on the dash and everything else works?
Hey, if I have paddle shifters on my wheel already, will I need to code it if I want to swap for M sport one? I live in EU, so I guess if I get single stage airbag, I won't have to do anything.
The problem is when you need to code out airbag and it's only 1 stage - and who knows if it's even working - I mean you'll find it out only in accident lol. In addition if your car had heating or vibro motor in steering wheel - you'll need to code that too and no guarantee it will work. There are so many things
Ara Arutyan my heated steering works, and you know your airbag works when the airbag restraint light isnt on! Lol. Its coded exactly how a European spec f30 would be coded. No reason for it to not work. I didnt have vibro either way.
Bro I’m from India,I got the wheels installed.but my paddles aren’t working yet. Can you give me the part number for the harness required to wire the paddles to get them working??? Please
International Marine Foods,INDIA Hi, where did you get the wheel installed? I took it to Navnit and they refused to fix it since it wasn’t bought from them! Thanks for the help.
Prior stering wheel doesnt had paddle shifter. Did it work with new one like plug&play ?? Or you need to do some wire connection ? Awsome Channel, i'm planning to buy a 328i , and your videos will help me a lot. Awsome !
Idk if you're still watching the comments after three years but I want to change steering wheel as well. I do not have paddled now but if I get a wheel with paddles can I use them immediately or do I need to do something first?
To code paddle shifters you need the E-says software. Look on the "bimmerpost.com" website and search for coding paddle shifters as well as E-sys coding. I believe kies motorsports has a video on how to install paddle shifters and the code required to activate them
Hey can you make a video on how you code that single stage airbag to a dual stage? I just bought the same wheel and installed it now I have the airbag light on… that’ll help a lot and save me some $$$ if you make a video and explain the coding part please!
Hey Swift I am aslo upgrading my steering wheel to M SPORT doing the install myself. But a local shop that works on BMW's told me the only way to get the paddle shifters to work is if I also buy the airbag coil which I believe is like another $400 did you have to do this to get your shifters to work?
So I got a 2007 328xi for my 21st birthday gift and it’s my first BMW ever. You guys have tips. I don’t know anything about cars but now that I got a nice one I’ve been looking at hella videos to learn about the functions and stuff lol
Kamarcus Gray pretty much EXACTLY how I started, you're probably new to the channel, but my first BMW was a 2007 328xi as well. It is now my sisters, your first lesson is your cars chassis code is "E90" feel free to ask me anything, and welcome to the world of cars. You're gonna have fun learning, and your wallet is gonna be extremely skinny!
Why not purchase the dual stage airbag and you won’t have to code it.. Also to be clear to people , you only need to code it if you get a single stage airbag instead of dual stage airbag
i know was 7 yrs ago but, did you get it to work with the airbag? cause i have the same airbag problem saying, Driver restraint system malfunction, im super happy with the Steering Wheel but the code has me with headache.
Hi Shumile - thx for the great video! I'm planning to get a M wheel and change it with the exact same wheel as in the video. Can you share your experience so far? Can I put the new wheel in and drive it without coding (i would code later)? Also are there any failure messages logged? So basically you can built it in and drive - code the paddles later? Greetings from germany!
Orhan Arslan yes that’s pretty much what I did, but you must code it before driving for safety purposes if you got a dual stage airbag for a car that’s coded for single stage, or vice versa. Theoretically you can install the wheel, plug it in and drive but you should atleast code the airbag to work to its proper functionality. Safety first! Thank you so much, greetings from NYC!
So eventhough you didn't have paddle shifters on the original steering wheel, you would be able to use the paddle shifters on the new steering wheel ? If yes then how would that be possible ? Wouldn't you need extra connections to the computer and transmission system ?
No some of these cars come pre-wired with the harness. Basically we installed the wheel, hooked up all the connections, and coded the paddles to work, luckily my car had the harness, and so the paddles worked without needing to get a new harness! Which kinda sucks cause now I can't make a video on how to install the harness!
Shumile Swift you mean to say that even if the harness is not there, the bmw transmission computer is already equipped with the option of the paddle shifters ?
Swift were you able to code your msprt wheel? Were any of your airbag connectors broken? I bought an mpsort with paddle shift and dual stage airbag, however the yellow connector on the airbag had a broken clip so it won't click onto the steering wheel. I'm returning the unit
Thanks for this video. I just did the m sport steering swap. I was wondering besides paddle shifter coding is there any other coding we should be concerned about like airbag etc.? I did have a "chases stabilization" warning come up on my test drive.
i have change my steering wheel to m sport on my f30 but there’s a driver restraint system logo on my screen. i have it shows on your car also. How do you solve it?
does this need some sort of conversion unit for the multi controls? I want to do a swap on my e90, supposedly the e89 z4 is plug and play but those wheels are getting harder to find and cost more then the new M wheels.
other than the paddle needs coding, is there anything else need coding? Does the airbag need coding? If the old one already has paddles, is coding still necessary?
I'm thinking about getting this for my 428i coupe. I have the European model with Kilometer but it's left had drive. My original steering wheel has paddle shifters will I need to code that and the airbag? Or do I not need to code anything?
The M Sport steering wheel is the better wheel especially for look and feel of the wheel. Over the top having to get one though. Better to just get it with the car originally.
The seller is from Latvia, so theres a high chance that your wheel really is a stolen wheel from Norway. There has been a group of eastern europe people who break into new BMW’s in Norway and steal the wheels and iDrive, and most of those things On eBay from there abouts is stolen.
FireInFlamezNO 😞
vet 😔
Why norway it could just be from Sweden there are even more stolen in Sweden
@@driftingcars904 they clamped down on some latvian or lithuanian organized thieves a few months ago, police found their stockpile of steering wheels, iDrive screens/buttons and more hidden in the woods - worth over15k usd
Germany is fucked up, a lot of cars get jacked, a lot more than in norway. Almost every part which has been stolen, is from a car in Germany
It's like a whole new car! Great diy 👍🏼
Kies Motorsports ITS SO MUCH SPORTIER
Just in time for our big race ;)
Kies Motorsports wheels add horsepower right?
Shumile Swift yes!
Hey! I haven't done it personally, but I may know someone..
love the channel, love to see more bmw channels out there :)
How do you code it to single stage, I got the air bag light on!!!
How to code steering wheel airbag?
takes 5 years off the interior of the car. Absolutely love it. Can't decide if I should get the leather or alcantara version!
Looks great mate, love that chrome. Your car is getting older but becomes younger.
Absolutely loving this channel, I purchased my F30 in August of this year and thanks to you I now know how to go about upgrading it. Thank you!
install the LCI LED tail lights!!
Jeffrey Wang ya make it look like a hyundai elentra lol pre lci is nicer
Jeffrey Wang Couldnt angree more! Had a 2016 320d, and i LOVED the taillights!

Never knew a steering Wheel could change the looks so much. Very pricey but look really good
The car retains memory despite the battery being disconnected, so u need to wait ~10mins after battery disconnection before working on airbag removal.
do you remember if the heating function worked on the new wheel?
Nice mod mate , your car is exactly what I want to do to mine ! Keep it up
What a big difference ! It Is an awesome and sporty steering wheel the M one. Great job.
Congrats! Looks amazing and definitely a huge difference.
D. Mike thank you!
Would the steering wheel (buttons, shifters, airbag) still work if I do not code it? Meaning like will it just have an airbag light on the dash and everything else works?
Hey, if I have paddle shifters on my wheel already, will I need to code it if I want to swap for M sport one? I live in EU, so I guess if I get single stage airbag, I won't have to do anything.
Nope, no coding is required in your case, just plug and play.
Mike Davidian thank you!
Please do a vid of you doing the wiring for the harnesses and the coding cause your literally the first person to go in depth with this.
SolidusComplex I will!
Agreed, great video. Is there a vid of the paddle shifter coding yet?
Nice. My grandcoupe came with the M Sport package. I have the same wheel. Love it
Looks awesome man. Great job

Awsome Channel, i'm planning to buy a 328i , and your videos will help me a lot. Awsome !
Needs wire connection and coding.
Idk if you're still watching the comments after three years but I want to change steering wheel as well. I do not have paddled now but if I get a wheel with paddles can I use them immediately or do I need to do something first?
the whole M package wouldve cost you a little over 2k when you bought the car....
renzoo unless you get one used, in which case finding an m sport is almost impossible
Does people who makes these comments think that everybody buys new cars??? LOL
If you buy it new lol
The way some option out their cars are ridiculous. They even got a M package without paddle shifters lol
Aidan Johnson I just bought a f30 with a full M Paket 😅🙈🙈🙈
Thank you for the great video:)
Can I know how to code the airbag please?
Great video, very helpful. Question do I need coding if my current wheel does not have paddles?
most likely yes. kies motorsportds goes into more detail about this. but it is fairly simple especially if you have bimmercode.
Same type of steering wheel, that's true, it's really hard to take it off the first time.
To code paddle shifters you need the E-says software. Look on the "bimmerpost.com" website and search for coding paddle shifters as well as E-sys coding. I believe kies motorsports has a video on how to install paddle shifters and the code required to activate them
Hey can you make a video on how you code that single stage airbag to a dual stage? I just bought the same wheel and installed it now I have the airbag light on… that’ll help a lot and save me some $$$ if you make a video and explain the coding part please!
Hey buddy, great DIY but I do have a question... what harness did you get to work out the paddle shifters? Did you clear out the code?
Hey Swift I am aslo upgrading my steering wheel to M SPORT doing the install myself. But a local shop that works on BMW's told me the only way to get the paddle shifters to work is if I also buy the airbag coil which I believe is like another $400 did you have to do this to get your shifters to work?
I love your style of vids man!
I’m a new subscriber!! I like your videos :)
Looks dope Bro. Do the digital cluster next
Man your friend is the plug wish i knew someone who could work on beamers where i live south texas
That’s awesome I have a 328i2012 I’m thinking in switching the steering wheel in mine how much you spend in total ?
Are the buttons functional? I’m asking because the mode button and Bluetooth button are in different places. Please any advice
Did you lose your heated steering or does this wheel have that feature also?
Anybody know this ????
So I got a 2007 328xi for my 21st birthday gift and it’s my first BMW ever. You guys have tips. I don’t know anything about cars but now that I got a nice one I’ve been looking at hella videos to learn about the functions and stuff lol

Why not purchase the dual stage airbag and you won’t have to code it.. Also to be clear to people , you only need to code it if you get a single stage airbag instead of dual stage airbag
Great video man!
Was it plug and play? Did the buttons for automatically when you plugged them in? What about paddle shifters?
How did you code the “driver restraint system” off?
Abraham Garcia did you solve it? I have the same problem
Did anybody solve that problem?
F. Arda put ur n20 air bag wiring to the new air bag I did no coddling no lights.
Zab h Okay got it , thank you
F. Arda electric tape the lose wires
BMW F30 cách lên vô lăng và hướng dẫn thay thế rất hay ,cảm ơn bạn chia sẻ video này
i know was 7 yrs ago but, did you get it to work with the airbag? cause i have the same airbag problem saying, Driver restraint system malfunction, im super happy with the Steering Wheel but the code has me with headache.
Yes but does it whiff out my hands and out the window while I driving?
That’s an improvement Bro !
Dear god that looks amazing. Have you thought of doing the digital cluster ?
Koala not crazy about it, too expensive lol
Shumile Swift it's looks nice but it is expensive. Are you planing to do a jb4 ?
Hey man, could you show in a video which points of the car are getting weak over the years , like rust or so?
Bruno Marley good idea! I'll try that
Rust ? F30’s rust ?
Hi Shumile - thx for the great video!
I'm planning to get a M wheel and change it with the exact same wheel as in the video.
Can you share your experience so far? Can I put the new wheel in and drive it without coding (i would code later)?
Also are there any failure messages logged? So basically you can built it in and drive - code the paddles later?

You should do an lcd cluster retro fit
Hugh Smith I'm not a huge fan of the cluster, too expensive :(
Im thinking of doing that myself since my basic steering wheel is bad lol thanks for the video
Wish I had a mike in Utah lol Car is looking great man🔥, can't wait for your upcoming mods
I did the same , I was so hyped to. Enjoy man , I’m happy for u 👌
Where did u get it from mate? Share the link pls
love this upgrade 😍😍😍
Thanks for this video. I just did the m sport steering swap. I was wondering besides paddle shifter coding is there any other coding we should be concerned about like airbag etc.? I did have a "chases stabilization" warning come up on my test drive.
It´s 100% stolen. Dont buy from that seller
Fredrik who cares
Fredrik thats what insurance is for
what do you mean by stolen.....
Fredrik that would make sense... why would anyone sell a perfectly fine, like new M-Sport wheel...?
little nick fucked
Also, DIG the backing track! Who is this?
Can you show a video of the coding to change to single stage airbag please.
Besides the single stage airbag issue, did it ever give you a fault concerning “resistance too big”?
I Got E90 I'm doing msport retrofit soon & put up video I havent seen any that done a real DIY
Are you rollin with 18” or 19” wheels?
i have change my steering wheel to m sport on my f30 but there’s a driver restraint system logo on my screen. i have it shows on your car also. How do you solve it?
did u fix it? i did mine yesterday and has not gone away
Very good explanation video!
What is the white plug for at 5:55? the horn? did i miss it or you actually did not hook it up again?
Only 1 question, do the paddles work? or do you need to code them?
Will the car still drive with that warning code?
I can buy the same wheel for my f30 but it's a flappy paddle wheel and my car is manual.can the paddles be removed?thanks
Does your steering wheel heating work after the change?
That seemed pretty easy ...lol... where are you located so he can do my 2010 M3
does this need some sort of conversion unit for the multi controls? I want to do a swap on my e90, supposedly the e89 z4 is plug and play but those wheels are getting harder to find and cost more then the new M wheels.
hmm, youre airbags dont work now or ? how did u fix that info on ' driver restraint system ' ?
and how would you get a pedashifting works?
FINALLYYYY!!!!!!
man change the mirriors with M mirriors will change your agressive look
Would this steering wheel fit in a BMW 528i 2014 F10?
Does all the electronics other than the paddle shifting work on the steering wheel? (Volume, phone, etc.)
Wanting to do same thing to my 2013 F30 in pitfalls with the Ebay purchase?
other than the paddle needs coding, is there anything else need coding? Does the airbag need coding? If the old one already has paddles, is coding still necessary?
I'm thinking about getting this for my 428i coupe. I have the European model with Kilometer but it's left had drive. My original steering wheel has paddle shifters will I need to code that and the airbag? Or do I not need to code anything?
I love the camera work. The old style of switching it between hands was no bueno
I did this mod and now getting clicking noises coming from the steering wheel when turning. Any way to fix it?
Thats the sexiest steering wheel ever!
Huge Difference want to do it this to my F30 2013
sup bro how long did the job take?
Looks very nice!
My car is the same year but has different points as you have to put in a tool horizontal. Any advice?
Can a bmw f30 streeing wheel with paddle shifters work on a f10???
Sure... they fitted f10s with this steering wheel oem!
You're making me want one... I didn't until I saw this.
Tyler Leis GET IT SON
What stage airbag was your previous one and the new one?
Can you please help me the location where you code the air bag please I install a single stage air bag and need to code it. I am close where you live
Jimmy Celi did you solve the problem?
The M Sport steering wheel is the better wheel especially for look and feel of the wheel. Over the top having to get one though. Better to just get it with the car originally.
