I'm very interested. Do you do remote tunes, too? Please PM me details. Thanks! I'm in Sacramento so I'll need to do remote coding. I have an 08 without edc but might buy it second hand so I would need the coding. I also do not have nav but I'm very interested in euro MDM. What is involved with getting euro MDM? Lastly I really want to get the Euro DCT coding. Are you coming to norcal anytime soon?

Alex, can you link your website? I'm having trouble finding it. Or paypal address?

Everyone else,
I too had great results w/my 12' 135i. Alex was patient w/my internet issues and did a great job listing all the options for my car. The pricing is the best around! I have bought Angel eyes from Alex in the past. Great guy w/great service.

Faster shifts, car almost loses traction from 1st to 2nd. Reverse is amazing, no more lag reversing, and also car can start in D, rather first gear, you can always double tap to go to manual shift mode.

Alex is the man!! I mean seriously. The best in this business at the lowest price. I got my coding done remotely. He sent the wire out to me three times at no additional cost because stupid post office misplaced the package the first two times! Now that is generous. I got all the regular coding done like window up down while door is open, euro blinkers, LCI taillights, idrive disclaimer disable, seat belt chime and bunch more I can't remember.

The most important one was "Euro DCT"!!! After all the regular coding was done, Alex told me about this and for the price he offered it, I just had to do it. It is exactly how he describes it here. The car feels very different! Faster shifts, a lot smoother, reversing lag is gone and it starts in D!! D5 is insane!! That's all I drive the car in now. A lot less jerkier than before with faster shifts! Thank god that it starts in D now!! My gf drove around my car in 1st gear the first time she drove it because she didn't know you were suppose to hit the knob twice on right to get it to D and I forgot to tell it to her. Thank god my transmission didn't blow up or something. Lol.

All in all, best service at the best price!! Thanks Alex and keep the good work

Alex,

Can you set up the so-called Euro DCT in such a way that enables everything that it currently offers except starting in D, which is something I wouldn't want to have happen?

2 euro maps. The more aggressive of the two starts in D. A simple double tap has you starting in first.
