What's up guys upon trying to flash my transmission to alpina b3 software I'm getting error 211 any ideas ? Thanks

Try this it worked for another person with error 211

What to do? Through all of my web searches, I found that the default setting of WINKFP is "0" for both API Tracelevel and IFH Tracelevel (This is found under configuration)...I had changed these both to "1" per the initial setup instructions (Everything else the same as first post screen shot). Without any options I desperately change these two items back to the default "0". Press the "Program" - it then wrote perfectly FIRST time!!! Whoo Hooo!

Can you communicate with your car at all?

Did you try to read codes using INPA?

This same one here I can send you a pic when I get home later

As a matter of fact I cannot pull my transmission codes from inpa but I can read my uif in winkfp

Hmmm, this cable shouldn't work properly with your car.

Can you check latency set on Serial Port COM? It should be set to 1.

For some reason when I check the com port settings on windows 8 it only allows me to set the com port to 1 there is not latency setting, which I find odd because when I tried to set it up on a windows 7 laptop the setting to adjust the latency was present

I'm attempting to flash a transmission that I took out of an 08 a/t 135i same year build within a couple months apart. Basically when I start the car the transmission is locked into safe mode because only 3rd gear is available neutral and reverse if I try to change gears with paddles or ds mode I notice the gears on the dashboard go up as in switching then just drop back down to 3rd. My theory is that the 135 software is written to the mcm so I'm trying to flash it to the alpina version to see if it's a go.

Didn't work

I assume that you have wrong cable.

Did you figure this out? I'm running into the same issue while flashing.

Nope gave up. I'm going to order the proper cable and try again soon on a new laptop.

Hi, did you try it again with the new cable and it works?

Which is the proper cable? It depends on the software version and the model &year of the car? How can I choose the correct one? I have the same code 2089 while flashing with an 328i from 2007.

Thanks
