Btw- Im also on JB4 Map 5 (on E30), AA DP, MST intake and MPE.

Seems like a worthwhile upgrade.
When you connect your thor wifi adapter, what name of adapter showed on the list? I got a thor pink adapter from ecstuning today but I can not find it on wifi list. Adapter itself lights up once I connected but no thor wifi name on the list. I have a 2021 m340 and iphone. I tried my ipad but no luck. All I know is once I connect it to obdII, thor_wifi pops up and connect it but nothing.

I just did mine last night. Came up as THOR_WIFI. Remember to keep ur phone near the adapter(right next to it) i held it with my hand sitting up straight and disconnected mid way.

It may take a little time for the ipad to pick up the wifi name of the Thor. Mine took about a minute. Maybe you can try rebooting your ipad and give it another shot…also make sure your ipad has its software up to date and the xhp app is up to date as well and put it on airplane mode. It should work.

With my iphone I kept on dropping connectivity midway through the flash.

Btw- Do you have a jb4? If so, set it to map 0.

I gave it up.
I spent many hours trying to connect it on Friday and Saturday,
All I see a new name on the list was not "Thoir_Wifi" but "Wifi_Adapter. So I connected it but nothing happened. I tried so many different method like Airplane mode on, Data Off, BT off, Manually put IP Address and Subnet mask but no luck. It even did not connected to bimmercode.
I packed Thor Pink for RMA and placed an order for Xhp Blue.

Anyone know if this works? https://burgertuning.com/products/mh...-flash-adapter

It seemed like it's in the chart but when I click it, no option to buy from the different 3rd parties so wasn't 100% sure.

Sucks to hear. If you were near by, I’d have let you use my adapter.

Anyone did a backup before flashing and what are the flash times looking like for first time flashing?

I'm pretty sure it auto-creates a backup. It took me about 5-7 minutes to do the first flash.

Just did the flash stage 2 with the Thor adapter. Now to pack 50miles on it before I can have some fun, so Tq Reduction Upshifts is what gives it that burble / upshift bang correct?

What's y'all settings looking like with that?

I just did xhp flash with a new xhp blue adapter without any problem.
I went with stage 3.
One little weird thing was my car information of xhp app says Europe region but mine is US.

Anyway, It seemed like there is 2 cycles of flashing so I assume first one is backing up and second one is for flashing stage and there is 2 options from backup menu. One is flash your backup calibration or fully uninstall xhp from your vehicle.

Does anyone regret buying XHP? I am ecutek tuned so I already have bumped line pressure so my shifts are pretty fast. Still debating whether to buy it or not. I mean it will help in the long run so the clutches don't wear as fast.

Flashed Stage 3 on a buddy 21 M340 Mild Hybrid over the weekend, surprise surprise no harsh 3-2 downshift but us non mild hybrids still have it for some reason with no updates. I reached out to support and they told me to flash a couple different custom settings but to no avail so i just stay on stage 2 now. Super aggravating because stage 3 feels so much better in sport plus just cant handle that 3-2 downshift every time.

Have you tried lowering the 3-2 downshift by about 17%? I found that it made it a lot more bearable.

I flashed stage 3 and definately no 3-2 downshift pops in SP+ mode (feels like almost same as comport mode) but it is there when you shift to the left.
And for sure there is loud upshift fart in SP+mode.

Ahh gotcha, i cant speak on the mild hybrid as it seems to be different then flashing stage 3 with the non mild hybrid. Try messing around with the custom settings as well, you can always revert to the backup it makes or just turn custom settings off all together so you cant really mess anything up.

Really? It made quite a difference in my car. This might be a stupid question but did you reflash after adjusting the slider?

There are some differences between m340 and m340 MH.

M340i Sedan Stage 3
- Torque Limiters removed
- Shiftpressure and Timing maps rescaled for high power cars
- Much firmer and faster upshifts in Sport/Sport+
- Adjusted D/Comfort shiftmaps
- Raised max. allowed RPM to 8000
- Stronger blips on downshifts
- Disabled Start/Stop (may be turned ON again through Custom Function panel in xHP)
- Sport + DSC OFF enables Race shiftmap (very late upshifting, very early down-shifting)
- Enabled ignition cut during shifts for EU cars ("Upshift-Farts")

M340i (Mild-Hybrid) Sedan Stage 3
- Torque Limiters removed
- Gear Display active in all modes
- Heavily improved shift-times
- Comfort: Medium-speed shifts, but always smooth shifting
- Sport: Medium to medium-fast shifts, depending on throttle
- Sport+: Super-Fast and intense shifting with maximum performance at all-times
- Even sharper shifting in Launch Control mode
- Unlimited amount of Launch Control starts allowed
- More natural shiftpoints for daily driving in D-Comfort
- Engine Start/Stop disabled (still active in P, may be re-enabled through custom functions)
- Sailing disabled (may be re-enabled through custom functions)

What’s sailing? And I assume when you flash your car with this, dealers can flag the car if you take it in for service?
