All BMWs 47.5 vs. 48.1 PSdZData CAFD Changes

What do you mean crackers? I ripped those files straight from ISTA/P 2.48.1, and they are unedited.

E-Sys is easy to upgrade. When that time comes, just run the Installer.

So you use ISTA/P (googled it as I had no idea what it was) hook it up to your vehicle I assume, and then download any new folders from the new BMW software releases? Then post them to the new CAFD files for us goons to grab?

Regardless, thanks you are helping tons of us F10 owners!

Not exactly. The Dealers use ISTA/P to program vehicles. Major new releases are released to them on a 4-DVD set, and minor updates to it are pushed to them online. So, the PSdZData originates within the ISTA/P release in .jetarch format and it is ripped out and extracted for use in E-Sys.

Can you please send me a pm with the dl link?thanks

Shawn, in January I am scheduled for a global update and so all my changes will get reset. Dealer already attempted to apply the GU, but because I have retrofitted 609 on my car, they did reject it from the GU, made me pay 5 hours (???) of them wandering why the GU doesn't work and told me to reinstall the original head unit and screen before the next GU attempt. After the GU I will reinstall the 609 retrofit HU and screen. My question is, will I need the latest PSdZData ? I would have to restart everything from scratch, right ?

Hi shawn, could you please PM me the link? THANKS!

Shawn, please send me a PM with the download link. Very new to this but looking forward to jumping in. Thank you for all of your work! I have been reading as much as i can find and your posts and documents, extremely helpful! Thanks again!

Yes, you will need the latest PSdZData, which come January may be something even newer than 48.1, but whatever it is, we will have the PSdZData for it.

As you found out, ISTA/P will not work with unofficial retrofits, particularly Head Units, and you have to put your factory Head Unit back in to get vehicle programmed. Besides being a PIA, you can't sell your old Head Unit to offset the cost of the new one.

Anyway, when you get your car back after the GU, it will be on a higher Integration Level than your CIC, which may be an issue, but maybe not. If it is, your CIC will also need to be flashed with the latest firmware.

OK, lots of questions here after trying to get the software initialized. Bear in mind I've been doing UNIX system administration for 20 years here, so it's totally possible I'm just overanalyzing everything. I have no ENET cable yet (still waiting on it). I was able to successfully initialize the software and enter the keys. All of this is running on a Win7 VM on my MacBook Air laptop.

1. Instructions say there is a bat file. I assume these are all EXE files now. I did not there were two Setup executables, but they were identical. Beware of that duplication there.

2. I copied all of my initial psdzdata into BMWInstall directory to install everything from there. However, the install did nothing with them as the newly created C:\ESysData\psdzdata is empty. Is that expected at first?

3. What do I do with the "E-Sys EST PIN.rar.vol*+*.PAR2" files?

4. What do I do initially with the cafd* files? Should they be in the c:\E-SysData\CAF directory now?

5. I tried using the CAF-Viewer to see the cafd files downloaded earlier, but I just get decryption errors (I did find the 4 digit PIN and entered that).

Heh, I think I'll stop there and see what you folks have to offer. I have another week before ENET cable gets here, so no rush. Just trying to work out bugs and get some sense on how this is put together and hope to help organize things a little better for everyone.

I don't know what instructions your are using, but disregard them, and all that you have done, and use mine:

Follow this excatly as written. If you still have problems, let me know.

Ahhh, this makes a lot more sense now. I'll go over this, this weekend. I'm not sure where I got the current instructions from, but it was from this forum. I probably just snagged a very early version of them. I also registered in the coding forum too and will start to browse that as well.

Thanks!

Ok. Incidentally, I wrote the initial instructions, and the copy I just shared with you, v.2, varies only slight from the original. What you had is something different. Since you mentioned a batch file, I think those are the instructions that go along with one of April1's Install batch files. You should be good to go know though.
