Hope Flashing doesn't make the Mileage go down.
Drive will actually get you better milage because it shifts sooner and keeps the RPMs down. But milage is all about how you drive, if you have your foot down all the time, it will not get better.

Thanks for the response wedge. I just noticed that my car was built on sep 2006. Guess I will not be able to do the flash.

Thanks again for coming down last night! I got a chance to drive it again this morning and I can't express how much better the shifts are in both auto and manual.

Haha, it was me who noticed the boyz in Germany posted the assembly number and I kicked Steven because he wasn't even looking at the thread. I don't even think he had WinKFP loaded at the time. Once he figured out how to update SP-DATEN, which we now know is easier to do through the BMW Coding Tools, I was the first one to flash my car. So yes, big props to Steven for spending the time to play with WinKFP, but don't forget if it wasn't for me this could have slipped through the cracks and it wouldn't be a reality today!

Big shout out to everyone who came out today. Thanks for making it and I hope everyone enjoys their upgraded trans flash. If anyone ever gets down to Portland, look me up. Just down in Tigard a few miles off the 5 & 99.

For everyone watching this thread, this was a one time event and the price charged for my time and services was also a one time offer. If you didn't make it to the event, well the special is over... Feel free to contact me if you still need flashed.

It was nice to put faces with all these wonderful cars we see around the forums today. Some great examples of personal style at the pre-meet and some next level rides at Golden Gardens. Hope to see everyone soon again

That would be cool. Make sure you drop me a text or have someone contact me so I don't miss out.

Give me a shout if you drop into Portland. I'll have my wife fix some spicy South Indian.
