As I see it there are a few issues.

1. I can't find any documentation on vmax changes but I read something in the forum for another car that you also need to modify a table to set the max speed in each gear. It may not be a simple change.

2. The recomendation is to run the engine or connect a charger when coding to prevent any voltage drops while programming. The DME module cannot be programmed with the engine running so needs a lithium compatible charger which works on german voltage - and somewhere to plug it in.

3. We may need a data update to program our cars - can we get that before the 10 hours? - not sure if anyone has coded an LCI yet.

4. Some codings require an unlock code - I strongly suspect this is one of them. Don't know where to get this (maybe not possible for US spec) - especially problematic given the 10 hour limit.

Im not an experienced coder - this will be my first time - if anybody can help I'd be very grateful. I would like to try it.
Let's move this to the new thread I just started
