Good day!

I replied to this early this morning, but it didn't get posted for some reason. No worries tho! So, when I got this info, I was completely excited that I would get to drive the X to work tonight (I'm on night shift)... I hooked up the laptop to the X and started everything up. Hooked up the 540i to the X and let the 540i idle... it worked last time when I updated the trans computer (VGSG83), so it should prove sufficient this time too... I pulled up the data in INPA and everything looked good... I opened WinKFP and had to search for the correct module... It doesn't say DME, but instead it was 19EK9284 or something like that... I pulled up the READ UIF and it had the matching info INPA had... HOWEVER, I couldn't find my assembly number in the list and had forgotten how to update to the new one letting the software do the picking... it got late, so I had to pack up in favor of getting some sleep for work! I'm going to start over tomorrow again, but this time I have the procedure... I really hope this works! Really really!

Thanks so much for this valuable info! I do have to ask, are you positive your buddy said the engine processor needed to be updated to filter down to the transmission EGS? I was told to do the trans processor, which I did, but obviously didn't work!

Anyway, I'll let you all know how it goes tomorrow!

Cheers!
