These were the results from successful coding for F80 increase top speed, vehicle was fresh off delivery and DME was just taken off transport mode. Will not be able to test if it worked until Spring. Vehicle locked away for winter and after 1200mile service. Will repost if it worked or not. If it does work it seems BMW has hid the limiter elsewhere and not in the DME. Either way stay tune for go or no go on the retrofit working.

Isn't it 7ME ? 7MA being the competition package. My understanding is that 7ME orders the participation to the training session and once completed, they give you a certificate and provide your dealer with a special code with allows for the increase of the speed limit (up to 305km/h for the M5 for example, depends on the car). I found on the net the attached ordering form which describes the process. The form is from March 2013, I have been unable to locate a more recent version. I'm sure someone from BMW could concur on this. I'm trying to have my dealer (in France) agree to order the 7ME option for me for retrofitting my M5 F10 of August 2015 with 11000km already (way more that 10 hours of driving) but they have no clue about the procedure to do so... I am the one pointing them at the option, the M Driver Experience training, etc. I will report back if successful. Last edited by Fredaow; 07-29-2016 at 03:17 PM..

I can confirm the governor is set at 167 mph. Well at least mine is. I've hit it many times. It's called the Autobahn for those wondering about roads long enough.
And yes I have a US spec car.

Yes Bosch hid it. Don't know why maybe afraid to unlesh all they power. Can you imagine how may totaled F80 & F82's there be if that limiter was removed. Not even DINAN can touch it. |

No precaution, but this is waste of time. It has never been proven to work.
