Does that mean I can´t code anything?
What will be the result if I try?

Is there any way of being able to code it in the near future? A new E-Sys release perhaps?

You can try, but for any ECU that has Trimmed CAFD you will not be able to find any FDL Codes.

No new E-Sys will solve this. The issue is all descriptive text has been removed from most of the PSdZData files.

So what I'm reading looks like downgrading seems plausible but no one knows how to actually do it am I right?

I don't know the answer to that question. For now, the only way I find it to be possible - still to be confirmed - is through the BMW workshop.

Hi Shawn,
After a while back in garage...
Belt warning shorted with your help note. Thank you.

But still cannot find:
HUD_ENTERTAINMENT_ENABLE = aktiv (ovbiously entertainmnent)
HUD_TELEFONANRUF_ENABLE = aktiv (incoming call in HUD)
HUD_TELEFONBUCH_ENABLE = aktiv (recent phone calls list in HUD)

searched everywhere
I see enabling for blinker only....

what to do now??
Thank you, Tony

You flash ECU's with E-Sys and older (i.e. 54.1) PSdZData.

What is your I-Step Current?

Kombi must have at least 2.47 Firmware on it. Your Kombi has only 2.45 Firmware.

Could you explain the steps? Is this safe to do?

It's fairly safe so long as car is on a good commercial grade charger rated for 50 Amps minimum. But anytime you flash an ECU, you run the risk of bricking it.

Here are the basic steps:

Go to Comfort Mode => TAL-Calculating
- Read and Save FA
- Activate FA
- Read and Save SVT Actual as SVT_ist
- Create an SVT Target
Under KIS/SVT Target Calculation Strategy, select Complete Flash
Select I-Step (shipm.) to match your original I-Level as read and shown in VCM I-Step (Shipment)
I-Step (target.) will be unselectable as it is fixed based on current PSdZData I-Level
Do a KIS/SVT Target Calculation and Save as SVT_soll
- Do a TAL Calculation and Save as SVT_tal

Go to Expert Mode => TAL-Processing
Load TAL (SVT_tal)
Load SVT Target (SVT_soll)
Select "Read FA" button.
Check radio button for "read VIN out of FA"
On ECU Tab, uncheck let top box in column "All" (All checked boxes should toggle to unchecked)
On ID Base Row for Kombi, make check boxes in blFlash, swDeploy, cdDeploy, and ibaDeploy columns.
Press Check software availability
Press Start and it will proceed with processing TAL to flash Kombi with new firmware.

Shawn, thank you for explanation. Exactly as I suspect from beginning...
Now, is there any chance for me to go 2.47?
Can I do it or dealer must??

Dealer would need to program the car, or you could flash it with E-Sys.

I prefer if I can do it myself if not danger.. Too much questions at dealer's garage.
I have E-sys from you, but I've downloaded v.54.1_PsdZData version lite only.
Can you give me some guiding please??

So ok, procedure clear. Question:
Is 54.1_PsdZData_Lite ok or need Full?
And file with new version of flash is where?? Inside the SW package already?

You need PSdZData Full, which has all SWFL flash firmware files.

ok, downloading just now... Thanks

[droftrah]

How long does the flash take? I don't have a charger can I run the engine? Also is the risk of bricking the ecu really high or is this about the same amount of risk involved regular old FDL coding

Shawn, I've lack of space on my old notebook with E-Sys.
Can I copy and use in my case only the folder " C:\Data\psdzdata\mainseries\F025\xxxxxxxxx" from 54.1_PsdZData_Full??

Flash time varies by ECU. Some could be as short as 5 minutes and others like Head Unit could be as long as 45 minutes.

You cannot run the engine, as Flash TAL will put car in Transport Mode.

There is no risk at all of bricking ECU from FDL Coding, so the risk of bricking that comes with flashing is certainly higher, but so long as car and laptop have stable uninterrupted power, and flash instruction is properly followed, it is fairly low.
