Bootmod3 transmission flash, paddle functionality

pdubq · 04-18-2020, 12:06 PM

I know from other threads folks have had issue with bootmod3‘s transmission flash disabling paddle shifter functionality.

Also read that their tech support has been able to restore that functionality with live debug session, but leaves a code behind that doesn’t clear. Does it result in CEL?

Has anyone gotten around that, and been happy with the end result?

Any word on if PTF has fixed this or will fix it? Or are all happy transmission tuned x3 owners just running xHP?

Does xHP and/or bootmod3 transmission flash have the ability to enable launch control on a model year before launch control was available?

Thanks!!!

I'd go with xHP. You can add launch control with it.

Thanks! That’s how I’m leaning as well... but with it already included in bootmod3, it’s tempting if the kinks get worked out.
