Remote Coding help

TommyV9 · 05-30-2018, 12:37 PM

I'm collecting the items needed to do a CCC to CIC and Combox retrofit. What are my options for getting someone to code my CIC and Combox once I install the hardware? I've sent a couple messages to Bimmergeeks and have not received a response. I may try it myself, but would like to get some quotes to have someone else do it.

TIA

Do you have a Cable and able to connect to the car now?

I've downloaded the BMW Tools from the Bimmergeeks website. The cable I have is from Bimmersoft, it was recommended by MHD for the tune flash I'm planning on doing.

I haven't tried connecting to the car yet, I'm still waiting on delivery of the CIC retrofit pieces.

Is a 3.5 amp charger big enough to keep the battery charged enough during coding?

Honestly, you don't even need it for what you are trying to do. It is only necessary if you are flashing modules.

If you still need help with coding, PM me I can help!

Ok, thanks. What about for flashing a tune to the ECU? I’m going to do an MHD BEF.

That, you for sure will need a charger. You will need something at least 15 amp, but recommended is around 50 amp.
