Sorry for crap pics.

I did a search in three modules - Kombi, HUD and HU_CIC, searching for Drive (to identify MDrive), HUD and Sport (to identify M-Sport).

I surfaced a number of things:
HUD_M Change to Aktiv, adds M HUD on HUD Menu
M_Drive Change to Aktiv adds M Drive 1 and M Drive 2 to Main menu
HUD_Variante - possibility to change from AG to Motorsport. I did not do this because I ran out of time, but I think it is worth trying this.
MDrive_Ruecko changed to Aktiv (don't know what it does)

@DreamCar,
How do you know with certainty, have you done so and got it to work?
Where does kafas2 (CAFD_00000BD5) originate from? A different Chassis?

Shawn,

I havent done anything ...i want to know how to do it.... I want how to flash the ECU with a different CAf file

Yes that CAFD is from F30 (Svache) and i believe F10 also has one ... I went through all the available CAF file in 46.3 there are four CAF can be for different chasis or different version for same Chasis....

Mobi,

Can you lease let me know the CAF file for Module ICM?

I dont see it in your CAF files you gave me

@DreamCar,
I think this is where "Code" comes in as opposed to "Code FDL", but I don't know the prerequisites. @mjgood might, as I think he went down this road when he retrofitted and tried to code 6NR.

I made the mistake of accidentally pressing code on the Kombi today. After that I got a check engine light. Then I did a software reverse through the CIC, and then update through the USB, and that got rid of the check engine light.

I through a CEL when I was messing with the KOMBI, KFAS and HU_CIC. I dont know which one actually threw it but sounds like it's the KOMBI. Anyway, it went away in 48 hours.

Chaps, I ran out of time today, and tomorrow I have to go to dealer for service and then catch a flight to San Diego.

However if someone else has time to do this, I would like to test the following for M-HUD:
HU-CIC HUD_M value=Aktiv
HU-CIC MDrive value=Aktiv
Kombi Hud_Variante value=Motorsport

Then go to HUD>Displayed Information>M HUD

If that doesn't work, try deselecting everything else and then selecting M HUD.

If it doesn't work, we will need to find a way to activate M Mode without it knowing.

The challenge is that the M_Mode switch toggles between M HUD and normal HUD. If we need to be able to make that toggle then we may be out of luck.

Also Mobileum - You should ask the German company how they switch between M HUD and Regular HUD without an M Mode button on the steering wheel?

Yes. I use a 10 year old Toshiba Laptop with 1GB Ram and XP SP3. Works very well.

Yes I use a virtualbox XP machine with my Macbook Pro.

Just wondering.. any chance you can get this for the F30 as well?

Great thanks, just checking my only laptop is running XP. sad I know....

Not so bad, in fact until today these type of tools (like esys) which Depend on external communication are much more stable in xp environments. Though when using a network interface most of those troubles are resolved..

@Stealth.Pilot;
I think it was just a coincidence, and that the CEL vanished on its own. Undoing the software through the CIC and then running the upgrade again only affects the COMBOX multimedia (MX) and telematics (TX) software, which should have no effect on KOMBI.

@aceman67,
Also, read my Post # 628:

Hi Guys Great thread guys. Im from e90post and pointed this way for f10 coding. i read the thread and made the cable and cable checks out correctly with my vin. I have 1 issue though. My target box is empty

I downloaded the 2_46.3 psdzdata and put the files in the places the doc in e-sys told me to. im not sure where to check next

@park828;
Copy all "psdzdata" subfolders (all 7 Folders) to "C:\ESysData \psdzdata\folders_1-7"

AND:

Copy the contents of the "C:\ESysData\psdzdata\swe" folder into the "C:\ESysData\SWE" folder.

7 folders? i see only 6

extlibs
kiswb
mainseries
mapping
security
swe

Thats fine. One was an empty temp folder. So you put them in both locations, correct, and your ESysData folder is about 28 Gb in size?

Did you go into E-Sys OPTIONS=>SETTINGS=>PROGRAM TAB=>DIRECTORIES and set the PSDZdata path to to C:\ESysData?

my esysdata folder is

28.4 GB (30,501,923,981 bytes)
14,782 Files, 100 Folders


and still no go...

...and did you go into E-Sys OPTIONS=>SETTINGS=>PROGRAM TAB=>DIRECTORIES and set the PSDZdata path to to C:\ESysData?

and data path is correct.

datapath.

this is on a 7 x64 pro if it makes a difference.
