Greetings from the UK.. I know this is an F80 / 82 post however S55 related.
My M2C went into the dealers a couple of weeks ago for a service. They update the DME which put me on this dreaded March 19 or possibly even later update! Decided to go with BM3 - ended up having to have the ECU bench unlocked. Stock file read and backed up. Then once all sorted could connect using BM3 and agent. Which there is a different Windows Agent required for ECU's that have had bench unlock. However upon trying to flash with OTS Stage 1 - this completed OK except for needing to run Online Recoding. When running the Online Recode this failed. Causing my car to be incapacitated for the past few hours! Eventually this morning i managed to work with the guys at PTS however still no joy. Tried all sorts, clear and reset DME, Re-Read DME Battery disconnected and connected charged up and sat on a charger, seat belts connected and strong WIFI and internet connection and praying! Still no joy! After a crap couple of hours sleep I thought lets just hook it all back up and try again! And somehow this time managed to get the ECU flashed with my Stock Map and Lock DME - All written successfully. DME is then up to date and can be read fine by BM3 On another note - flashing the DCT M4 GTS was all OK with no issues - however flashed back to default as the Gear indicator vanishes whilst in Auto.. Anyone that has had this BMW ECU update - please wait for confirmation from PTS before proceeding otherwise you potentially face this difficulty which is far from ideal! I am hoping they find a way around it so i can finally get what i paid for! |

Transmission, steering and suspension flashing/ coding is independent of the DME module - can be done with various other tools like ESys. BM3 has made this available as a freebie... If BM3 reported success; then it is successful - enjoy your car.

By BM3 and MHD, the DCT flash are all said OK by just 1 time flash. But for THOR, the dynamic parts (CS>S, including LSD, DSC, EPS) flashed OK in 1 time, but for DCT, CS map always failed in 1st time, but try again will be sucess, for GTS map, it was failed twice and in the 3rd time OK. Weird issue. will go to my tunner to unlock the DME to elimate my concerns in my heart. |

Anyone from BM3 have any updates on the status of those 2019 production vehicles unable to unlock DME through OBD? This stock CS tune isn’t gonna cut it lol

2018 M3 here, can’t upload my license. Gives error “data support” your vehicle DME is in progress etc etc etc. does that mean my DME is one of the ones locked? I already opened a ticket with protuning. Waiting to hear back with a solution. I was so excited now this

I got my issues taken care. Serge from PTF did a remote session had me tuned in no time. Seemed like he loaded some coding for my DME I guess I must of had one of the latest updates. Everything works, no codes or nothing.

First time M3 owner here. Why would BMW do this, block the ability to tune your car? Don't they understand that the modifying of this car for performance is the reason some people buy them in the first place. If your willing to accept a voided warranty that should be the owners, not BMWs, choice. Has BMW released any communication on this issue?

Hey everyone! I purchased a 2020 M4 in december and i have finally now wanted to tune her. I have been doing my research about Bootmod3 on M4's and it looks awesome. A few of my buddies told me that I cannot tune a 2020 M4 because of the DME. Is this true, and if so what is the best way to tune this car? Thanks.
(I mainly want burbles and backfires). I have a resonator delete but it didn't do as much as i wanted. Thanks guys! Edit: Just want GTS tune If someone can help me i would appreciate that (:
