Ok, so who has right? Do I need to unplug or not? Anyone programmed modules when HV was plugged?

You should disable the hv using the service disconnect under the bonnet, confirm deactivation via check control message, then connect 12 power supply and program as normal.

Thanks, this hv connector is on the left side under the bonnet? Under plastic cover above headlight?

Can anyone tell me exactly where?

Yes.service connector under the engine hood with orange color,please attention after lift up the connector then lock it with an "U" lock.and chech CC from instrument cluster.

Another attention is the charger must be connected to EME(luggage compartment,remove the cover) two low voltage poles not 12v battery under the engine hood.

It was used to disconnect HV-Battery, but by the latest methods by bmw it is not required anymore...

Little correction, if the I-Fase is before or is I001-14-03-504, than you have to disconnect HV- Battery, but if it has a newer I-Level it isn't needed anymore because Ista/p or Ista/d does do it automatically by programming....
