DME Tuning - TUNERPRO

Alright, i've stumbled upon this out of chance one day on the internet and was wondering if anyone can shed some light. Specifically with crafting .XDF files and naming every graph appropriately with notes.

So far I can make sense out of this graph. It shows DISA valve activating relative to Throttle position and rpm. looks like it's somewhat adaptive. Still need to spend some more time to make sense out of it all since I doubt our engines can take 10k rpm's. lol

If anything we can at least raise the speedlimit ourselves lol

Interesting.

I use tunerpro on my Buell. Great program but you really have to know what your doing. I used other guys "race" maps and made minor adjustments from there. It would be awesome to use on the M!

Are you able to read the contents of your own DME? Might be a good way to finally quantify the differences between the US, EU2, and EU3 tunes (and perhaps said differences can be "ported" to the MS45.1 cars which technically don't have Euro equivalents)

Lol, Your bin files are actually the ones that I have along with your xdf.

I have been tuning nissan and bmw ecus for 8 years now, all tho I don't have an OBD2 bmw I am willing to help the community but you will have to help me too with information.
If someone has a stock flash, and tuned flash file, I could compare the files and in that case make a definition file for tunerpro software, this was the same version of software can be tuned any way you like. Problem is that there is too many versions of stock software and the definition file would have to be made for each version of ecu and version of ecu software.

In this example lets take raymond3080 stock (Ms43) ecu downloaded flash, it is 64kb size but the full flash in that ecu is about 4096kb, a huge file that would take hours downloading from the ecu, so I asume galletto just lets you download the good stuff portion of the file and that is map area. raymond3080 software version is 430064 and that is very important to put down and the flash file should be designated as (.bin) file. Some people say that they can't download the flash that is stops at some point, and some can't even flash it back. This is because the ECU requires minimum of 12.7volts and the car battery is about 12.3v even less if it is left for few minutes with key on engine off to dowload the flash. The uploading the flash requires even more voltage to properly flash it, this is why bench flashing is recommended with about 14 volts on tthe ecu using special made adaptor and voltage supply unit with minimum of 500mah.

From my experience with OBD1 bmws files I was able to find some maps in the raymond3080 stock file and I have made definition file for tunerpro software. I would have to see the comercialy tuned flash of the same version of software to know more.

So for now you can see some maps in raymond's file, go to tunerpro.net and download the software tunerpro for free, then load the XDF file, that is definition file then load the raymond's file, you will need to search "all" files sense raymond made his file a .dat instead of .bin

This forum does not let me post Zip files so PM me and I will send you the file.

so hakken,

based off of that can you compare the us version to euro 3 and eu2 version for differences? or does that only apply to same version tuned files?

I imagine you need the same version simply because the hex code will be in the same spot where as different version reference different hex code locations for the same features. correct?

I really want to get to the bottom of this.

With bimmerfest east comming up I could kindly ask people with tuned files to let me take a dump of their DME. and we would have tons of files to play with.

Pa soft can read a range of hex addresses and output it to a .bin file. I saw you mention you know what the beginning and last address is for the relevant data. If that's te case we can use pa soft to gather tunes. Right?

If that's the case we can start creating xdf files for the latest DME versions. And some older versions.

With some instruction I can assist with xdf files. I imagine the cracked version of winols can be used to sort out the checksum. Do you know if winkfp only updates the 64kb section of the DME? If thats the case then unchecking the checksum flag within winkfp will allow us to flash our own modified 0pa/0da files.

Also have you taken a look at 0da and 0 pa files?

Maybe we can figure out a way to use winkfp to inject our own tuned code into the DME without complication.

Who knows. Wouldn't it be cool to write a vb or c program that all you have to do is open up your bin file and simply select the mods you have done to your car, alter speed limit, rev limit, sap removal, 02 removal etc? with a click of a button once we figure out the code? Dump the output file into WINKFP's software stash and flash it ourselves without a bench and in under 30 minutes?

Here are some oda and opa files that are the latest euro 3

7545670,7503718,7545150,A,7539692DA,0FFFFFFFFFD,134,1 3

EDIT:I tried pasting the hex code contained in the files but that ended up braking the thread so I can e-mail you the files so you can take a look. Hakken.

I use tunerpro on my e30 and OBD1 applications. I have used WinOls to find the edges of the maps, and then you create an XDF from that. I am curious about the hardware - with the obd1 cars you need a EPROM device so you can read/write/adjust at will. I have never dissassembled and OBD2 ECU but I wonder if they have the same thing inside? Because if all the information is stored on one chip like it is on obd1 cars then how can you overwrite it. I assume the obd2 ecu used a programable memory - or how else would thing slike the shark injector work.

welp, no help

I guess

The OBD2 DME has programmable memory in which with the apprppriate tool you can extract the 32kb file which contains the necessary (most of them) files to tune such as fuel, timing, etc.

As for the hardware, you can use the Galletto 1260 or MPPS which you can get on ebay and the price of the MPPS unit will depend if the unit is a china clone or a European clone (this is the one i purchased to be on the safe side)

Honestly, i have these tools and also have WinOLS, but have not been able to understand what maps control what and you have to do some serious reverse engineering to comprend and be able to identify and properly modify. At this moment, i am not even close to doing any type of customization at all.

I guess I should've been more clear - I was wondering if you personally had the hardware to dump your DME. I don't (and I don't have access to any MS43 cars anyway). If this can be used to work with the MSS54, then I'd gladly buy an interface and help in whatever way I can

I've read that PA soft can be used to dump the entire DME using our current serial to OBDII interface. I have done that.

Hakken had mentioned he knew the beginning and end HEX addresses where the data to be manipulated is contained.

Tried dumping mine. "EEPROM" is grayed out, and the read memory function gives me junk data (lots 0s and Fs)

anyway to turn off o2 sensors with this software?

Google Vag KKL cable. If the EEPROM is grayed out as you put it, first thought that comes to mind is the hardware is not setup correctly.

My hardware is fine (using actual PASoft, not demo... works fine for other functions). Probably just doesn't have complete support for the MSS54. Don't really want to install the demo and use it with my other interfaces because it conflicts with the full-version.

Engine doesn't have to be running does it? I was in accessory mode with the car hooked up to a power supply when I tried.

Reading the EEPROM is a little different than software functionality. In order to have read access to the EEPROM the cpu is usually forced into a configuration mode. This is accomplished via hardware not software as you are attempting to change the state of a hardware pin(pull down resistor) during the processor initialization sequence.

What the hell are you talking about? Some Euro vs. US program ? WTF? So far I don't see you contributing at all.

It won't be worth anything, you need the guy's stock file and the tuned file. So far I did not get none from any of the members so how can you expect me to do anything?

EEPROM feature does not work. To dump the EEPROM on MS43 ecu using PAsoft, use the "read memory" and start 00000 to 7FFFF or what ever option it gives you, the maps are located at the end of the memory, like 5FFFF-7FFFF

Don't act like a douche just because you don't know what someone is talking about and throw a fit about it. Instead, ask politely.

I guess you are not aware of WINKFP and e46 DATEN files that contain ALL e46's software versions. If you knew you would know what I was talking about and be able to help;instead of putting your foot in your mouth like you just did.

And yes all we would need is a tuned file since we have a repository of all software versions available.

My question was if you have ever taken a look at the .0da and 0pa WINKFP/NFS BMW hex code to see if it is in fact the same as a dump.

Hell, I could find out myself. All I would have to do is read out my DME and compare it's hex output to the 0da and 0pa files...

tart 00000 to 7FFFF or what ever option it gives you, the maps are located at the end of the memory, like 5FFFF-7FFFF

Like? or AT 5FFFF-7FFFF?

WINKPF seems to be what dealer uses to flash ecus, I've search and it seems that you need a very expensive GT1 interface with laptop for this to work, it defeats the purpose

You are not contributing anything, you are clueless and all you do is just trowing baseless ideas around
