Quidzel Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) retrofit now available
We are happy to announce the release of Quidzel Traffic Jam Assist Modules (TJA) for i3 are in stock and ready for installation or shipping. BMW Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) is a driver aid system that performs lane keeping along with adaptive cruise control in limited scenarios, specifically highway traffic situations where the system is adept at following the car ahead at low to medium speeds, controlling steering, accelerator, and braking inputs. However, BMW has not offered this feature in the US market until just recently, even though many recent models with active cruise control already have the software and most of the hardware required. Specifically, BMW adds a capacitive steering wheel, sensor module, and wiring that is used to detect hands on the steering wheel and presume that if the driver’s hands are on the wheel, the driver is in control of the vehicle. Some people have bought the steering wheel & other hardware costing up to $1000 and successfully retrofitted their USA cars with TJA by coding the system modules to include option 5AR. The hardware isn’t commonly available in the USA, and requires airbag removal, etc. The Quidzel Hands On Detection test emulator communicates with the car as if you had retrofitted the capacitive steering wheel. This small module installs in about 2-3 minutes, allows you to test the TJA functionality by coding the car for the new functionality, and is fully reversible. It is easiest to apply the code as a one-shot VO FA change across all the modules, as different cars have different modules. The initial hurdle to coding your car is a little steep, so you might ask for some help from someone advertising BMW retrofit coding services. It must be said that you must remain attentive and in control of the car. You are responsible to monitor and correct your car’s driving – you will find that TJA is not autonomous driving and its technical ability is limited. To take advantage of this feature, you already must have active cruise control and are aware of its limitations – this adds steering assistance/control with similar limitations. Our HOD test emulator emulates the capacitance measurement, enabling BMW Traffic Jam Assist on your BMW vehicle with ACC (option code 5AT). Installation TJA Demo (credit: Bill Dickens) Vehicles Supported 2014+ i3 with Auto Cruise Control (Option 5AR). Coding required Feel free to contact me via PM, email, or phone if you have any questions.

Do you have a charger there to charge the i3 while it's being coded? You are a little far but if I could be charging the car while I'm there, that would be great. (I have a REX so no big deal if you don't)

I have a L2 charger here, but unfortunately on the opposite side of the shop of where coding is performed. Let me know when you want to get coded.

Congrats. Look into the TJA retrofit, this has been very popular for i3 owners (have it on my i3 also) once you get settled in with the i3.

Send me the last 7 of your VIN or I can check when you drop by for coding.

The M4 coding would be the same price as the i3 coding at $95. Here is a a more complete list of what applies to the M4
