Clear Blue My Hero
We need to see some pics of the intake. Glad to hear the reprogramming has created smooth, linear acceleration. Hopefully, you are still achieving the same impressive V2 HP and torque numbers. Did they run a new dyno?
Thanks for keeping us updated. |

I didn't get a Dino print out this time. But I was told it is actually pulling a little more than the previous tune on the v2. I didn't get a timeline of how long it will take to push out the update but i can't imaging it will take long. I'll see if I can get some pics later tonight when I get off work

Really happy to hear about the tune!! Any idea if they'll notify you when it's ready? I imagine the update will require me to take in back in to the DINAN tech at a dealer?

Not sure about when they will push out the update. I imagine they will be sending out an ecu with the updated map and you swap it with the one currently in the car and mail the old one back.

V1. My adaptive steering feels off too. I'm taking my car in to BMW tomorrow. I have also contacted Dinan and they are promptly responding. I'm on bypass now and driving very slow as I dont want have power cut off on the 101! Will keep you guys posted.

Got an update on the new V2 map from Dinan: They hope to have something released within the next month or so.

Nice! I was actually going to email them tomorrow just to check in and let them know everything is still going great. I got 478miles before the second fuel low alert went off after a road trip last weekend using Eco mode. And it pulls really smoothly in sport, but definitely doesn't get as good of gas mileage then 🙃

Got an update from DINAN stating that the software update is available! They sent me a shipping label and I dropped my ECU in the mail this morning.

Nice!! I'm excited to hear how it works for you. Mine is just butter smooth in all modes and conditions. The exhaust note paired with the free flow exhaust is just amazing.

Dinan's axleback is next on my list of upgrades. Waiting for another sale (which will probably be a while).

Replacement ECU finally arrived!! Very smooth in all modes...so smooth that It almost doesn't feel tuned until the higher RPMs where the B46 would normally start to give up.
Also went with a 240 setup this past weekend and installed the MP Diffuser and MP Exhaust. That rear is sexy now.

Okay guys, enough of how good the updated V2 tune performs. I have been complaining just as long and have spent almost as much with Dinan to deserve some love. So, smooth, with the same or more power? No more hesitation and then surge? Can't wait.
