For anyone who has done this, does it "fix" the issue of jerking forward when you take your foot off the brake from a standstill during warm up mode?

Wouldn't that be e-brake related?

Either way, I've done it and don't notice the jerking forward feel..

It's to do with the Neutral Idle Control and there is a TSB about it so assumed it's normal

All done today, feels great driving the car and very impressed with Jin and his setup.

Will return for more mods once I have some cash.

I thought that was just me and the way I drive. I will let you know if the car still does it.

Thanks mate. It doesn't do it in sport, just D mode

Jin-ActiveMotorwerke · 07-11-2013, 07:11 AM

Neutral Idle Control normally has the effect of creeping forward/thumps when the car has come to a stop, not when you take your foot off the brake.

Jin-ActiveMotorwerke · 07-11-2013, 07:13 AM

And you can turn NEitral Idle Control easy enough.

I haven't experienced that before. Only jolting forward from a standstill when i remove my foot from the brakes and the transmission reengages. And only during warm up.

I assume NIC can be coded off?

Jin-ActiveMotorwerke · 07-14-2013, 02:58 AM

Yes, NIC can be coded off easy.

smiley32 · 07-23-2013, 11:03 AM

go this flas to E90 318D N47 engine automatic transmission?

*DAN* · 07-23-2013, 07:10 PM

Will this flash work on other engine variants or is it only suitable for 335i's?

chappy · 07-23-2013, 07:45 PM

Only N54 and N55 engines in 3 series and 1 series as the flash was from the Alpina B3 e92 335i I think some guy was trying to get it to work on a 5 series.

blk335msport · 07-24-2013, 07:42 AM

Any reports on how this is? I can't tell from the youtube vids pm how much faster the shifts are.

Jin how much are you charging for this coding?

Cheers

Pete @ Advan will be offering this shortly as he is doing some testing on his 335i first.

GI335I · 08-08-2013, 03:30 PM

Guys I know its an old thread, but let me get this straight, you just need the WinKFP software and a usb to obdII wire?

SRT335 · 08-13-2013, 10:17 AM

I finally got around to doing this flash. It really wasn't too hard, with no prior coding experience I just ordered a cable from ebay (about $50 delivered) and followed one of the video guides in the coding section for setting up the software. Once its set up and installed you just follow the directions in the Alpina B3 flash DIY thread. The flashing takes less than 5 minutes.
