Sweet. I'll plan on that.

I can, provided no one asks any questions on:

1) Why they're tied up

2) Why I'm keeping them in my trunk

UPDATE!

If you want me to code your cars - i'll expect you to accept the following. The other coders don't have to follow this, but it's what i will do because it'll be the only way we can grind through all of the folks who will attend.

The safest way to code each car is to be very careful and backup everything. Since i don't want to have to track 20+ backups, I'd like to ask each of you to bring a USB or thumb drive or any small storage device that works with my 2011 Macbook Pro. The workflow will be something like this:

1. get to your car, you let me sit in the big boy seat

2. connect my laptop to the OBDII port, open the laptop
3. run a couple of diagnostic apps to make sure the laptop and your car communicate. Any errors here and we stop. If I proceed i could brick your car and i won't even try.
4. If communication works then i'll make a backup of the portion of the ECU that we will be messing with. This is why you need a USB. I'll pop in your drive and save it so that if you ever need it...
5. As we modify your car i will also take backups of each modification, so that in the future you could get someone to redo the work if it's reset by the Dealer
6. We'll try each mod out in serial.
7. And we're done!

There are a bunch of variables to coding - like the version of software that i have, the version your car has, your model number, etc. In about 15% of cases some mods will not work. It will be obvious if this happens. I'm telling you this because i will not try to f-around and 'make it work'. It'll either work immediately or it will not and we'll have to move on. Just wanted to get this out for you guys driving in from out of state. We'll probably be cool but its really not worth the risk. Trying to force this could be a very expensive mistake.

Scared?

Peertwelve · 01-31-2012, 11:20 PM

There is a google docs spreadsheet here.

Column A describes each possible mod.
Columns D through I represent model years.
Column L has more detail for each function.

If your E9X has is compatible with a modification then an X will be in the year column. Not everything on this list is doable with the tools I have. But if you want to get an idea of what is possible, this is the list.
Have fun!

good thing i have the more common things asked to code haha

atown88 · 02-01-2012, 12:18 AM

Going through that spreadsheet gets me excited. I forgot about the AE on unlock. I saw that on an e92 one time...I was droolin. Also, I want to take that bulb test out too so I don't have the flickerin eyes. Kinda embarassing.

You must either:

1) Have a big boot.

2) Have really small women.

i think we should do southcenter mall or something along the freeway so the Oregonians can get there easier and we just lead the way?

Np man. Just glad you and the other (potential)coders can make this possible.
