(100%) E9X M3 241E DME Flash (DIY)
Hello guys,
I have done the 241E (7854376) DME Flash yesterday and i can tell you this mine being 60E 08 version (I-Level - E89X-08-03-530), 240E did a lot of improvements. It is not just apprx +20HP gain but also alot smoother cold start and more responsive Throttle on lower rpms. It is very easy process if you have following tools. 1- Winkfp with updated DATEN (SP-Daten V67) 2- ICOM Cable or BimmerGeeks Pro K+DCAN or Expert K+DCAN cable 3- Stable Battery charger (I have 40Amp constant battery charger) Steps : 1- Hook up the Battery Charger 2- Connect the OBD cable to car and PC 3- Buckle Up Driver seat belt 4- Roll Down the Driver Window 5- Close the Door 6- Turn on the ignition (Do not Start the Car) 7- Open the Winkfp 8- Select Comfort Mode 9- Select Update ECU 10- Select Module (MSS60) 11- Write your 17 Digit Vin 12- Select Prog ZUSB 13- Click Ok on the Pop Up screen (Which says The Users info field can still be programmed 62 times) 13- It will go 0-100 fast at the first stage than will start Flashing. (About 10 min) 14- Then another screen will pop up saying the same thing (The Users info field can still be programmed 62 times) Click OK again 15- It will take about 30 second to do another 0-100 16- ZUSB-Update programming OK message appears 17- Fuel Pump will be activated and you will have some errors stored in the ECUs. Mine is MT so i only got DSC Malfunction on iDrive and Cruise Control Symbol with Exclamation Mark on the KOMBI. After clearing the ECU Errors either with INPA or ISTA, should be all set. Do NOT attempt with regular DCAN cable if you do not want to fail on DME Update. I used ICOM NEXT CH Clone (Quality One) and works like a charm! Here is the Youtube Link

My dealer also never would update the software. I have the original 2008 one.
I can buy the cable online but where do I get the software for running this?

I was told that when dealer needs to do updates they do the entire vehicle. But i guess that's not the case for me. I have retrofitted CCC to CIC properly and iLeveled my vehicle from 08 to 11 with FRM3+JBE3. Because i kept all the previous process and screenshot i was able to see the previous iLevel values so i can see that i was 60E. But now everything almost updated! And car feels really good.

I want to do this. Pretty sure my DME isn't up to date being an 2008 car.
Trying to learn this software stuff. I ordered a cable so waiting for it to come in. Found this youtube vid below, is this a good start to attempt this flash once I get all the downloads going? Last edited by RC Post; 12-24-2020 at 09:01 PM.. |

I asked my dealer to update my DME given it's a 08, but they refused saying that there's a small probability of ECU getting messed up and killing the car. How much truth is there in this? When I called other Indys they were happy to give this around $100

Is this update essentially the same as flashing a map with tuning software. I have a new engine after my old one spun a rod. i had a stage 2 tune flashed on the old engine and reverted back to a supposedly stock flash with my new engine, however, i want to ensure that what i am flashing is stock. Would flashing the 241 update accomplish that?
