My car doesn't rev as high or up and down like it used to during cold starts. So I would say cold starts are improved. Warm starts are now "cammy" which wasn't the case before.

i had my software updated tuesday to the 07/12 version, ista/p 47.2.001, from the 03/08 version it had previously (clearly never updated).the car feels quicker,smoother,and just crisper.it is of course hard to eliminate the placebo effect,but i'm pretty attuned to my car.
the dealer charged me 1 hour of labor,which i thought was reasonable.the download took about 2.5 hours,and then the technician test drove it twice with me to be sure everything was working right,and had to correct a false reading on the wheel angle sensor.he said you usually have to make a few adjustments like that after the update. all in all,well worth doing. |

Yup, looks like the ones rolling out now are in fact 240E.
Just finished tuning my car on 240E, feels great. Pulls like a freight train. The low end/jumpyness I complained about before was most likely a result of the low pressure fuel pressure sensor going awry. After the dealer replaced that it's smooth as butter again. Now before many people ask me if it's worth it to upgrade from 231E to 240E, my answer is that it is not worth it. Now if it comes as part of a tune, then I would say that it may be worth it then, especially for cars on older revisions.

Does that mean we will get a free update to 240E from the dealer soon? |

robbiedawg: Yes - anything as of 47.1.100 will contain 240E
bbs lm: Not sure about this yet - BMW seems to make it appear that it's an isolated issue to the UK, but I think it affects every later BMW with v46.3/46.6 or earlier software. I have been updating a few cars remotely to prevent the key reprogramming bug that allows people with the right tools to steal the car.

I'm pleased to announce that the dyno on my car with 240E software was completed earlier today.
The car broke 430whp!!! Torque gains after applying the BPMSport Stage II tune were massive at ~20 ft/lbs in the midrange. So - we know that 240E and 231E is good software. We also know that both of them can achieve gains when properly tuned. And this is on 91 octane as well I will be creating a thread shortly with dyno graphs/pictures/videos/ and further information. Mike

Looking forward to the detailed post and dyno and hoping you share your mods. I suspect you will keep your tuning secrets secret. |
