Hi Bob

Welcome to the Forum

Your absolutely correct certain items are coded to the chassis there is also the "myth" that only BMW can do it. The process is straight forward and many garages have the software (autologic or similar) to carry out the task, plus of course there is a BMW Specialist Register that will provide you with a Specialist near you.

Finally there are many software programs available today the will allow you to DIY several using your smartphone.

Just google BMW software you will find there are loads of stuff available literally from £10 up

Good Luck 

Dave
