Flash tune with no unlocking

This looks like a huge game changer! Lets hope this is the real deal.

Was talking to a local guy yesterday and I heard the same thing regarding BM3 being now available thru OBD2 strictly.

Will ask a couple more people about it.

If true, this would most likely increase demand for flash tunes by a lot

ECU removal is a major pita in the M2

Have a hard time trusting even professionals in restoring everything back together perfectly after removal

Yep, they haven't mentioned any other important things

- Unlock for good?
- Reading stock file? (Impossible without Bench right now)
- Tamper Code ?
- Amongst a few other things I dont want to share lol

Magicmotorsport is forreal.... now what MP ( mission performance ) has done on the actual development is to be seen. Since like X Flasher is a dealer/tuner tool so $1900 euros doesn't seem that bad.

Dude, I don’t know if you’re paid by PTF, associated with them in an official capacity, or just a huge fan, but whatever the reason, I know to expect that you’ll post something like this at every available opportunity. We get it, BM3 is a solid platform, and has advantages over many of the others. But if you don’t have something more constructive to add, can you maybe just not post on threads like this? There are a lot of people who might want/need something different than BM3. If someone has BM3 questions, believe me, we’ll point them your direction first, and the BM3 thread second.

Ok, I just spoke to an insider, it appears the magic motorsport cable while can flash tune the DME on the MEVD cars, it does not allow it to go into BL mode, which means it only can do a partial over-write of your DME.

Which means... warranty still void as it won't be able to completely remove tamper codes as well reset the flash counters as it can't do a complete 1:1 copy of your original DME files/bootloaders/config.
