thank you, responded back.
I think we need a thread to explain that with our flasher platform people can switch exhaust burble on or off by switching the map in about a minute or so whenever they choose to and wherever they may be by plugging the flasher in and using the mobile app to switch. That includes any other feature of a tune including tunes that have linear throttle vs. more aggressive or those with a cold start option and those that have it disabled, etc. |

If this was posted by anyone other than PTF I would scream vaporware. But I know these guys are the real deal, totally transformed my old N55 135i into a car that scared me when I would hit the gas pedal.
I have a ZCP so I'm interested to see what they have in store. |

No one (that has posted or that I'm aware of) has cracked the encryption required to complete the initial flash via OBDII. PTF has indicated that is a project they're working on but it's not priority at this point. FWIW, the physical task of pulling the ECU is trivial. The downtime isn't if the car is your DD. |

So when switching these settings and tunes will that add to the "flash counter" if so then this may not be for everyone who values their warranty. I know that now BMW checks that as one of the first things when going in for warranty work.

That's actually false. My really good friend is a senior tech advisor. I also double checked with my Master Tech and they have no idea if the car was programmed when serviced by another dealer. That counter is irrelevant but if warranty is a huge concern just get another ECU if sh@t hits the fan as others mentioned and go in with that. I looked around yesterday and they're really not that expensive to get if something very expensive had to be repaired engine or transmission wise. They can't void all parts of your warranty anyways.

with the above approach you should probably pull your real dme and set it aside, and then use the new one for the flash. I don't think you want to explain to them why the dme you have in the car now isn't the stock one..

Let people fraud a company...great. BMW should read the forums and during service visits start randomly checking for ecu's that have been opened.
