I recently purchased an 08 335i e92. I noticed there was a USB cable (male) coming from the glovebox. Out of curiousity, I took the ECU compartment apart, and I found there was a silver box attached to it and the harness labeled as "PROcede CANbus X". I did a little research on it and saw that people would activate the different mappings via DTC button (twice). I tried with no luck. Is there any way I could tell what type/version is installed in my car? Also, how would I go about activating the different mappings?

Did you try while the car was on?

Yep, the car was on and I hit DTC twice, quickly. I turned the car off and on again and looked for the light to blink once, nodda.

push up on the cruise control stalk, all procede v4's and up show you a solid color screen and what map your in...

if its pre-v4 procede just yank it out and send it to vishnu, they will charge you $150 to upgrade to the newer better unit.

[E3r2E9r]

Ya send it back to vishnu and just upgrade it.

Is it actually connected to the factory wiring harness or is it just sitting in the ECU compartment?

If you double click DTC on v4 or v5 it should change maps.

Derp, thanks for the heads up everyone. Just went out to my car in this freezing weather, put the key in and pulled the cruise control stalk, and voila! Showed my mapping mode 0. Went ahead and turned the car on and hit DTC twice, and BAM! changed modes from 0 -> 1 -> 2 etc. Set it back to 0 for the time being. With this functionality (cruise control + dtc) what can I assume this PROcede version is?

to piggy back on that, how do you know what version PROcede one would have?

+1 for this

[Brey335i]

In all likelyhood it's a Rev 2

Send it in for a Rev 2.5 upgrade

[bionet]

Out of curiosity, what are you basing that off of?

[Jeff@TopGearSolutions]

It's unlikely a 2.5 as its fairly new addition and I doubt someone who upgraded to a 2.5 and spent the money to do so would just leave it in their car when they sold it.

The differences are internally but the length is different too. As far as tuning and software goes you can maybe try running 2.5 aggressive maps and see if it works. If you have a problem its likely because you dont have a 2.5. I dont know if its safe to try to be honest.

Be that as it may here is a comparison:



This will unlikely not help you as you dont have another procede to compare to.

Just call Vishnu

[banky]

wait, so which one in that picture is 2.5 and 2.0?

[Jeff@TopGearSolutions]

The large one is 2.5

[bionet]

Jeff, If the two are readily available, would you mind holding a cig lighter next to it and take a picture? Or perhaps a ruler

heh someone hit the jackpot. I wish I could get a free tune with my car

I dont have both anymore, sorry.

However, in the picture is the factory cowl that they are sitting on. The 2.5 is nearly the full width.

He also had KW V2's, M3 rep front bumper, and HID upgrade >:]
