I tried incessantly to remove the 'encoding' error after replacing my controller but only the dealer was able to flash program the new unit, which include an iStep update.

Soft error. Means nothing. No warning in dash/CID.
Simple to fix with ISTA or eSys. |
I agree, it is a 'soft error' as it doesn't show up on the iDrive display but the fault is still stored permanently within the module and when you run a Test Plan with ISTA+, the only official solution is flash programming.
I tried to find a work-around, including contacting a few 'coders' to help, no one was able to assist.
However, if you have a viable suggestion, I'm all ears, as I would love to add back my ceramic controller, error free.
