Last guy I "helped" took several hours of my time over a few week ends. I just don't have that kind of free time anymore. It's not a matter of monetary rewords, I've never accepting any. Just working 60+ hours a week, every week leaves little time for my other hobbies. I've got a really cool job, so it counts as a hobby.


If you are not totally tech savvy, I bet one of the professional Coders can help you. They normally don't charge much and some of them are very knowledgeable. Worth the investment.

Okay well the vehicle developed a no com no start. Couldn’t connect through inpa or ista after the flash. I feel like I’m very tech savvy, built my own gaming pc after all. I followed all the instructions to a T. Like I said, the only differences were I was using a trickle charger, an Amazon cable, and a MacBook laptop running a windows 10 partition on the hard drive. It flashed the RSA delete fine but when flashing the 325i to 330i batch file it gets disturbed then a bunch of errors pop up and car would not turn back on after that. No lights on the dash, nothing. Even with a new battery I was not getting power to terminal 30, relay that wakes up cas module. Tried to flash back to stock and nothing happens. No connection to the car. Took it to the dealer and they couldn’t even figure it out and recommended that I needed to buy a new dme cas and keys to get the car to work and wanted to charge me more than what I bought the car for, so I junked the entire car. I’m willing to throw $100 at someone to remotely do it for me if possible.

hey bud, how's it going? So i have a 2008 bmw 328i coupe. It has the GM1912 trans module. VIN# WBAWB3353p131856
Im new here not sure how to add photos or screenshots. I successfully added the rsa delete, and the 328i-330i tune. But my DME is giving a no coding error and there isnt a ZB# next to the UIF data from inpa. Everything in the car is running smooth though, and disa flaps are working so i know tune is there. My question is can i run this 330i euro flash ZB#7587776 from WINFKP? or do i need the specific Opa and Oda files with it?

Do you realize you need to flash first the "HW# program" [7602220A] then the "ZB# tune" [7603236]?

The first time I looked at the Bimmerlabs table, I thought everything on one line was just different file-formats of the same tune and I only flashed the "program" which led to a crank-no-start.

I can't test it but let me know if there's any issue with the batch flash.

I’ve tried the RSA delete and got a few errors, also with the bimmergeeks site down. I’m now in a pickle. After trying to install the stock tune from the file. The car wont crank at all. I’ve just spent a few hours communicating to and fro. But nothing works. I tried NCS to default code the modules back pre RSA delete. But not getting any response any more.

How do you go back to pre RSA delete?

I have a question for my more experienced colleagues.

After a successful transfer from 328i to 330i, both physically with the manifold and programmatically with the ready-made software from BimmerLab, I wanted to simultaneously update my GM GA6L45R also using a ready-made file from Bimmeslab via WinKFP, similarly to the engine map change.

The file downloaded from Bimmeslab for the gearbox is successfully loaded without any errors, but it is not possible to shift gears from P to D or anything else, and P is not displayed on the dashboard. It seems like there is no communication between the car and the gearbox controller after installing the dedicated file from the BimmerLab website. The WinKFP program automatically starts transmission after enabling the .bin file.

What am I doing wrong?

hey sounds like you bricked the car, when youre running winkfp make sure bootsectorupdate is not activated!!!
run the rsa delete again after you have corrected the winkfp bootsectorupdate debacle and make sure the dkan cable is linked properly with the rate being 1:1 not 16:1 make sure you save these changes too so you dont have to do it every time, then run the tune again. just curious can you send a link for the tune on bimmerlabs because i have an 08 328xi that has the same transmission, maybe i can try it out and tell you if its the tune thats wrong
