Basically XDF is a definition file for the source code of the DME (.bin file) because the DME bin file is just one big long string of hex numbers. LOL, well this is how my simplistic mind understands it, I'm sure I made some guys who really know this stuff cringe a bit!

Anyways, the definition file (xdf) defines more tables that we didnt have access to previously and makes it easier to adjust those tables so that any tuner can use it with a free program like tuner pro to adjust those new tables for better tunes and more control of what the DME is doing to control the performance of the car. Its open source flash tuning and it gives the clever tuners the tools to make more bad*ss tunes or for the shade tree tuner like myself, allows me to get into more trouble and then employ a tuner to help out
