On some videos, I see "BMW" in the middle of the screen when the car starts up, but others, it just shows the car image animation. Which one is correct? Does it show that BMW splash screen on start up or not? Is it different depending on the model of the car? Is there a setting to get it to do that? I would want the BMW logo on start up.
do you have any plan to discount some products especially for rear view camera products ?
I love this in my car and absolutely stuns any other bmw enthusiast that gets in my car.
agreed
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks 😊
You're welcome!

Having a 6WA with a HUD I don't thik this is worth it. But if you have a relatively fresh car and no HUD or 6WB and thinking of keeping it for a while, it could be worth it.
My 2017 X5 came with 6WB, iDrive6 and touch screen unit all from factory
This is so awesome. I'd love it in my 550IX if it wasn't $3,000.
Hi and one more thing.when you press button on speedometer for long time you will get more info on the right clock I mean info cooling temp. oil temp.how many petrol/diesel is in the tank etc.
Is use this often on my X5
Hi BimmerTech, is it possible to code the digital reading up to 200 MPH for example? I've been looking around on the forums and can't find any info about that.
Hi, we are not related to engine tuning. So, from our side it's not possible.
It’s possible with the proper coding
Yes u can with Bimmer code
Does the digital cluster from G30 directly fit F30? since there are few for under 500€ in our local scrapyard
We'd have to check that by your VIN. Please contact our support team (info@bimmer-tech.net) with this question and provide them both of you car's VINs.
My family has a car(530d m sport 2014 MY)which is equipped with this cluster.I am driving it after a long time and the colour does not change with modes.Is there any option which I must enable?
Please record a video of changing the 6WB modes and send it to our support team. We will see what is going on. Also make sure to include your VIN: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact
Have you got for the bmw f2x or even the later f2x like an m140... 2016-2018??
Unfortunately this isn't available for 1 Series.
I have a 2013 BMW 328i M-Sport and was wondering if i buy the cluster will my HUD still work normally?
It depends on a couple of things (the head unit, etc.) Please contact our support at support@bimmer-tech.net and provide them with your VIN and they will provide you all the help you might need.
Will the 6WB work in my 2018 330e w/HUD ?? Because that would be super Cool 😎???
It most likely could but you'd have to check that by your VIN :) Enter it in 'Identify your BMW' box: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb

bice video. Do you sell a device for bmw e65 serie 7 from 2008?
thanks for reply

Hey! No, sorry. There are no OEM digital clusters for E-series.
Hello, does the 6WB show the media track info when scrolling through tracks when using CarPlay, eg when scrolling through songs on Spotify, my current cockpit with a small screen at the bottom does this currently, thank you 😊
In order to confirm if that will work with your car we will need your VIN, you can contact our sales team here with your VIN if you prefer www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact
If you have head up display it will display on there.
Can i know how i can see the system voltage via this new cluster
In certain models this should be available through the secret menu in the digital cluster.
I have a 2006 650i/ SMG Coupe and would like to know if the 6WB is compatible to incorporate in my car?
Unfortunately there aren't any digital clusters for E-Series vehicles.
Does it work with a simple NBT? Or it should be the EVO one?
It works with simple NBT. You can send us the last 7 digits of your VIN and we'll check if you're compatible.
I put my vin in on the website and it says it isn't compatible but it's an F36 and the ad on the website says it is. Doesn't make sense to me.
There are probably no fiber optics in your car. Please send your VIN to our support team and let them check it: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-contact
Is it true that outside of the US most cars ship with these 6wb’s installed?
No, it actually mostly depends on car specifications and the year of production. There's no general rule.
Can it coded so the comfort display is applied to all modes?
Unfortunately, we don't offer such coding. You'll have to search an answer for it on Bimmernav or Bimmerfest forums.
I need this for my 08 X5 premium sport 4.8i.
Hi, unfortunately only F and G Series vehicles can be upgraded with the digital cluster.
Do you see the gear shifting indicator while in manual mode? It shows some lights on the edge of the tachometer. In my car it doesn't work.
Hi,
Please provide us with your car’s VIN and we’ll be able to assist further.

Does this work with f30 330e hybrid?
Hi! Sure, the 6WB cluster in the 330e is the same used in other F30s.
I hate the look of the sport mode. Eco pro mode layout can be turned off and replaced with the standard (comfort) graphics. This can be done simply by unchecking one box in the display configuration (iDrive). However, I'm not able to find similar option for the sport gauges. Am I doomed to look at them each time I switch car in the sport or sport + mode?
Unfortunately, the Sport+ mode layout cannot be changed.
@@bimmer-tech Thank you.
If i have a CIC head unit, no NAVI, a regular cluster and no sport + mode, will the 6wb fit on my car
Hi there! The best way to find out is to check the compatibility on our page! If you don't want to do it, we can do it for you if you provide us with your car's VIN!
Cheers!
How do I get the navigation directions to show in the center?
You should be able to set this up through your iDrive settings. Head over to the settings labeled as Instrument Cluster, where you will find more options for the 6WB cluster.
@@bimmer-tech do CarPlay nav apps show up on the cluster?
Can you have the number mpg display on comfort/eco mode like you do on sport mode ?
Could you point out with a time stamp to the moment where this is shown?
@@bimmer-tech 2:48 on sports mode it shows the *mph* display was wondering if you could get that also on comfort or eco pro
can the 6wb change the speedometer units from mph to kmh and vice versa. Thanks for noticing this comment!
Yes, our technician can code it remotely after installation.
You can change units in your iDrive settings
Can you change the top speed on the dash? For example, I want 200mph on the dash instead of 160?
Hi,
unfortunately it's not possible
@@bimmer-tech can u help me?
I drove one f30 lci today with
6wb cluster but when i pressed sport/sport+ or eco mode it did not change the display and kept showing the comfort mode display while the car went in the other modes. How is this possible?
Will this same cluster fit bmw 640d 2011 model
We have clusters for 6 Series, but to know whether it fits your exact model we'd have to know your car's VIN. Type it in here to check: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
Can you suggest a digital dash for an 03 bmw x5 4.4i
BMW never produced digital clusters for E-Series, so we can't propose you anything OEM.
Hi, I have the 6WB cluster in my F30. How do you get it into dyno mode?
Hi, could you explain what you mean by “dyno mode”?
Press and hold on the trip reset button on the left of your cluster, once you are in your hidden menu you can scroll by pressing once on the trip reset button until you see "roller mode" and that's dyno mode
Would the sport mode and eco-pro mode display the mpg bar?
On the 6WB cluster, only the Comfort mode shows the economizer. The other modes either do not show any information about the current consumption (sport, sport+) or show only the charge-power indicator (eco-pro).
Thank you
@@bimmer-tech so just a big stopid empty space in the middle?
I have a 03 x5 4.4i is the 6wb compatible with this vehicle
Unfortunately BMW never produced digital clusters for E-Series cars, so we don't offer them too.
Hi, in my car bmw m550d f10 unlimited speed, digital speed máx in modo sport only show 263kmh máx speed... This have solution??? Thanks..
Hi, our digital cluster won't increase the speed.
i dont own a car as of right now i just want to know if it will work with a e92
Unfortunately to tell you that we'd have to know car's VIN. There are more variables that have to be taken into account than just a car model.
maybe you check this out : customdigitalgauges.com/collections/bmwretrofitcluster/products/bmw-retrofit-cluster-e9x?variant=36569990856855
I have 2010 F10 5 series, after i retro fit 6wb speedometer cruise control is not working, any solution?
Thanx
Probably the cruise control is not connected to the 6wb speedometer :)
@@bimmer-tech what's the solution? With old speedometer cruise control is working

Can you put this on the 240i? 2017 or 2018
Please enter your VIN here to check that: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
I have one, but it’s blinking ( restarting ) every 3 seconds even the fuel and temperature ampere
Please contact our support team at support@bimmer-tech.net with the details of your car and purchase and they will do their best to help you.
Can anyone help me I can’t find any information for activehybrid 3 digital cluster.
I'm afraid we can't help you with a digital cluster for a hybrid vehicle since we've never offered any. But we don't say no for the future :) You can subscribe to our mailing list and get notified when it's available: www.bimmer-tech.net/newsletter/Signup/
Is compatible with right hand car?
Yes, it's available for both LHD and RHD vehicles.
BimmerTech thanks
Can I fit this to my 2019 bmw m4?
It depends on your model specs. When you enter your VIN here you'll know for sure: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
Hi can it be installed in Bmw 316i 2013
Hi, yes there is a very high chance. Enter your VIN on this page and you'll see if you're compatible: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
Does it work for f82 m4?
No, sorry, it doesn't.
if i were to install this on my bmw x5 2016 that has a HUD will the HUD still work?
Please send your VIN to info@bimmer-tech.net and one of our team will be able to confirm how the HUD will work in your vehicle. Thanks!
my one does not display the mph... how can you put that on
Have you checked in the menu?
can you code me 6wb online? I've already installed 6wb, but it doesn't show me the gears
We can code it remotely yes. Please decode your VIN here and find a "parts coding" option on the list: www.bimmer-tech.net/bmw-idrive-coding/.
hi can the speedometer be switched to the right side ?
Sadly not
@@bimmer-tech can the right side scroll wheel on the steering be configured for volume control ?
Can you jailbreak it?
Currently we are not aware of any possibilites of jailbraking the cluster.
What does it mean if someone is selling one and says it’s not a Virgin? Does that mean it cannot be reset?
This means it is not restored to factory settings. A used cluster must first be virginized in order to be installed and coded in other cars.
Can the 6WB be used in a mannual car
Send us your VIN and we will check it :)
Can you get this for a 218i
No, there's no 6WB for 2 Series.
Can u get the map on the display
This gen gauge cluster doesn't come with map display
Love it but can't afford it lol : )
Bmw 535i 2015 ? Does it work
Hi, we can only tell it by the last 7 digits of your VIN. Please send it and we'll check.
is sports+ and comfort+ available on it?
If your car has comfort+ and sport+ mode, then it will be displayed. 6WB cluster works as a monitor, so it will display everything that a particular car is equipped with.
@BimmerTech if the navigation is on and i have heads up display, will it show navigation on the heads up display still or is it either or?
@@socommaster Yes, it will still show the nav on HUD.
Does this work with BMW F11 2011 520D ?
It may, but you'd have to check it by your VIN to know for sure. Please enter the last 7 digits in the 'Identify my BMW' box and you'll see if you're compatible: www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
@@bimmer-tech my VIN: WBAMX11010C888061
I’d like to order one?
You can do it right here :) www.bimmer-tech.net/category-6wb-bmw-oem-digital-instrument-cluster-6wb
Can u install for me too
Sure, we have a bunch of partner installers all over the States: www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers
Available for Head up Display?
Yes, but how the 6WB and HUD work together can vary depending on your vehicle's hardware. In some vehicles, some info from the HUD might be shown on the 6WB instead. If you send your VIN to our team at info@bimmer-tech.net they'll be able to tell you exactly what to expect. Thanks!

Does anyone know if 6WB digital display can fit into M4?
Hey! Which M4 do you have in mind? The product is compatible with F-series BMWs, so should be compatible with M4 as well :)
@@bimmer-tech F32
Yes, it should be good! Send us your VIN and we will check the compatibility :)
Can you code it to 330 kmh?
Sadly not :(
Does it wok on a f82 m4?
No, sorry it won't work on F82.
@@bimmer-tech why not. Will it ever?
is this cluster goes for 430i?
Hi, we would need your VIN number to see if it goes for your exact vehicle. Please send us the last 7 digits of your VIN and we'll check.
BimmerTech EC57720
@@Ibnulhalal It is compatible with your car.
BimmerTech thnx so much
Eco pro mode with a manual doesn’t look like a good idea lol
Hi, can this be install in BMW 523i F10 2012 model?
Hi! There is a very high chance - in fact almost 100%. But we'd still have to know the last 7 digits of your VIN to make sure we're correct. Please send them to us and we'll check.
id be willing to pay 1k, but 1700 man thats some serious cash for a dash
There's a 10% discount till today on all BMW upgrades, including the 6WB cluster. It's the only time in a year you can have it for less.
But it looks old already compared to the new dash. This was a waste of bmw R&D. They just mimicked analog gauges. They must have realized this because it was only around for a couple of years
it was out for 3 years and they had to because the standard instrument cluster (6WA) was so much further behind in tech compared to equivalent models at the time from other luxury brands. if you need other mods for the car this can wait but it definitely looks better than the 6WA cluster.
Bro update that small pointer for temperature, they are so uglyyyy
will do lol
It’s not worth it. I saw a local member with this 6wb. The center display stays blank most times unless you use a nav. And even then it’s just arrows. The sport mode looks tacky, but it’s subjective. The eco mode only shows up to 60 mph. It feels incomplete especially if you are on the highway cruising at 70-75. Comfort mode is the best looking. But for $2000, I’d rather just change the bulbs to white on my cluster to change the look. It will even age better.
I knew it wasn't worth it once dude said... "so is it worth it"... "before I answer it, blah blah blah...." then never answers it.
when you config eco mode you can set up speed to show on speedometer so its not true what you wrote.
And it has a very laggy speedo refresh rate, 100% not worth it., it should've at least have more info in that empty space
@@inspired_by_bimmer267 only snails use eco mode
I cringed so hard at "VIN Number."
One laggy a$$ cluster
FOR $3,000 YOUR CRAZY!!! GIVE ME A BREAK!!! I CAN BUY A USED CAR FOR THAT!!!
But then you still wouldn't have a 6WB 🤷
Would it work on a f80 m3
Hey,
you can check the compatibility on our website. Just enter your car's VIN and see the search results :)
