Anyone with the most recent software update from Nov 2019 will NOT be able to use BM3 via OBD. The ECU can be unlocked, but must be removed from the car and sent to the tuner.
Some owners may be lucky and driving a 2020 M40i from Sept build onwards that retains the older software. Both BM3 and MHD have no foreseeable fix to bypass this latest BMW DME lock. |

Me too I am going to check with my local tuner. Going to go with a dyno tune and we will see what options they have.

Heads up for anyone who can flash, all the OTS maps dropped today.
Just flashed stage 2 91 and test drove it, it's like nothing I've ever felt before... |

Please give more details. How does it drive? Is the ride quality compromised or does it drive as smooth as stock? Does your car have the B48 or B58 engine?
