Are you the same Levi with the VF tune w the connector installed wrong and car is blowing black smoke and you want to update the software too

I have personally done partial update on my car. I'd do it for free for friends but it's too much responsibility if somethings gets blocked or goes haywire...

P.s.: I have a DIY in that topic http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1264746

Thanks for the direction!

Since I'm tuned, really didn't feel like taking the chance to go in for this..
Besides, I'm manual and mostly keep traction off anyway... too intrusive

Of course, if I was told it makes a world of difference, I might have a change of heart.

Read bluex's review towards the last few pages, the changes he felt the most were related to EDC (electronic damper control). Usually if you have nothing to complain about, no need to update the car's software unless you know of a specific improvement/fix you want...

LOL. Don't worry I won't update it until my car is fully fixed.
