F10 Removing electronically limited top speed

Is there a way to remove the electronically limited top speed?

I know on my car I don't have one thanks to Dinan, but I am wondering if someone has been able to code this on a non Dinan.

How did Dinan remove the top speed limit on your car? What was the mod?

The Dinan tuning includes removal of electronic limiter. I have the stage 2 tune for N63

Didn't they do soimething like this in the old F10 coding thread (the first one before this forum was open)? I could be mistaken but I believe I read something about it.

Possibly this VMAX value in the DME module? Never tried it so not tested..

That would be my guess too. One way to check may be to add S231A DELETION VMAX to the FA (VO) and then code the DME, and see what VMAX = 255 changes to.

I tried that just now. Esys didn't allow me to calculate FP with SA231 added to VO.

System error - Not all elements of the FA were found in the FA2FP: SALAPA 231

Possibly restricted to M vehicle coding?

Is this error typically common to missing FA elements found on M Cars?

Has anyone tried coding an M6 now they are on US streets?

@StealthPilot = Since you had the Limiter removed by Dinan, please read and advise what your current VMAX setting is for comparison.

We should be able to compare this with the value on an U.S. M-Sport, and a U.S. Non M-Sport and see differences with all three, if this is in fact the Limiter value.

Thanks for testing this for me...not sure why it didn't take. You may be right in that it requires a M Car, or has some other dependency we don't know about.

Will do. I am away till Weds but will check Weds am.

Guys if anyone in the NYC area wants to look into the difference of M-Car settings, there is a new M6 owner here who is looking for coding help in new York.

DreamCar & cn555ic are in his neck of the woods. Maybe one of them can get it done. Hell, I'm tempted to fly up from H-Town just play with a F12/F13 M.

Yes it will also give us the ability to see what is going on with the M HUD.

btw I'm pretty sure Japanese spec cars don't have speed limit(never tested lol) and my car's DME says:

VMAX-codierung: Wert_02

it did not have VMAX as in miotoo's screenshot.

Can you post a picture of yours like miotoos's showing the full Function Name and Value?

sure, here you go.

Interesting. Thanks man.

Who is going to volunteer to test it after you guys figure it out lol.

BTW what is the top speed of a non M 535i ?

We can also test if the parameter works by setting a lower limit from the list eg. 210 km/h (~130mp/h). That should be easier to achieve even by the more modest models..

Hi Guys,

First: I am a noob
second: a M5 F10 owner
Third: I think I successfully read out my car using ENET cable and E-sys 3.18.4 and 2_46.3 psdzdata

However, I am a bit overwhelmed .. can't see the trees through the wood..

What I did before was buying this DVD unlock to be able watching DVD / TV while driving;

But next step is:
to remove my electronic speed limiter.

Now I tried to find this CAS / DME module but can't find it
what am I missing and is there somebody willing to help me out?

Thanks

Are you able to connect with E-Sys and Read the VCM? If so, there should be a module called [CAF DME].

Sure I followed the guide and no errors so far, but can't see this module you mentioned;



Picture attached

Details for screenshot;
I am not connected anymore ..
if needed I can connect again;

I have e-sys working with parallels 7 on macbook pro, but tested the cable, could read everything without an error so far ..

Look in DME2 [12] and DME2 [13] for VMAX setting.
