It's quite possible that if your JBE is not coded for M3 with DCT it will not forward the 0x206 message.
Not sure if the firmware/program differs as well between the M3 JBE and the "normal" one, I think they actually have different hw numbers too, but don't quote me on that :)
for this its all the same really i coded it but they use the same only difference is adaptive steering and sunblind options which is all cross compatible

it HAS to be over PT can though K CAN doesnt help me here, origianlly the DME sends the message over PT CAN and is delivered to the KOMBI on K CAN
I understand you need it over PT CAN but it'd be helpful for debugging to try it on KCAN as well.

If it works over KCAN it means the issue is with the JBE, if it doesn't it means the issue is with the Kombi.

my concern is if the message is being sent correctly and if its the correct message. good point though

Did you figure it out?

I can get you a trace that you can replay from my "startup animation".
It should work on KCAN or PTCAN (very old versions of my program actually used PTCAN). JBE will forward 0x206 and there is nothing specific to the M3 as far as this is concerned.
As far as coding for the KOMBI is concerned:

Code:
MMI_ENA_SHIFTLIGHTS
aktiv

Add parameter to these:
SHIFTLIGHTS
1

SHIFTLIGHTS_1
1

SHIFTLIGHTS_2
1

SHIFTLIGHTS_3
1

SHIFTLIGHTS_4
1

I'm not 100% sure if "MOTORSPORT" is needed. I think not.

I did not I’m using savvycan to send messages. It is coded as a M3 with DCT however so the hours are enabled

Here's a trace of my startup animation.
0x206 for the shiftlights, 0x6F1 to control needle sweep.
0x206 can be replayed over KCAN or PTCAN as long as ignition is ON and the KOMBI is coded correctly. I don't know for certain if 6F1 will be replicated from PTCAN to KCAN - it may be.
