Privately, about 1 month, publicly, about 1 week.

That's interesting! I'm an early adopter then. I'm sure it has made my first attempt at coding very easy. And not a wonder support answers so quickly!

shawnsheridan thanks for the recommendation btw!

Coded 2 cars today with Dec 2021 build dates, no problem whatsoever. F95 X5M comp and my G20 330. it did crash once using the search function, but this is an older laptop, other than one application crash, it's been working perfectly.

Esysplus don't read iDrive and body modul on 3/2022 SW in G20. And SAS3 is not readed correctly.
I bought BU today and i will try it.

panki_86 · 04-10-2022, 05:47 AM

Ok, i say goodbye to esysplus

BU reads and code all of modules on FW 03/22.
You don't even need to write FF, FF, FF, FF for land_aktiv menus, you can just select it.
Search engine is the same like Bimmercode

Nice and cheap app.

That's not quite true. Some of the land_aktiv menus that I was coding for Traffic Light Assist had to be edited. Some already had the FF, FF, FF, FF as an option.

I did to 4.34.40, but is not reading HU-MGU and BDC_BODY3 on FW march 2022. On FW from november 2021 was working.
You have coded G26 with 3/2022 FW?

If I remember correctly you need to change the VFW_COUNTRY_VARIANT_MODE in the KAFAS /40F8 ECU to "FF," by the factor of 70? IFR listed it in his MY21 cheat sheet that he released early last year. You must also have the FSC code for GWW/WWA for it to work

Works well for me, but I have one problem: I can't find the right bdc control unit... Any solutions for this? Every other control unit works perfectly

What do you mean you cant find right BDC? What is name of BDC_BODY CAFD?

You can see some control units in the picture but unfortunately the necessary one is not displayed in Esys

BummerUtility works independent from Esys. It has nothing to do with what does and does not appear in Esys. If an ECU does not appear in Esys ECU list, either you dont have the ECU, or your have issue with car.

Run engine when reading ECU and drag and drop ncd into BU.

BU "MY FILES" only lists the CAFD files that are located in the Data/CAF folder. Have you read the coding data (using Esys) for the CAFD of interest?

7083 is right one

Steveo · 04-25-2022, 02:38 PM

BU is excellent so far but running into some issues…

Cheat sheet for BDC_Body3 7083 file is not coming up.

Having issues getting LCA to work on G82 as it was working on older firmware version.
Seems that C_SWA_LAND_ACTIVE is missing from SAS?
Any ideas? Had the below to get LCA working:
BDC_Body3 > CAFD_7083 > SPURWECHSEL_ASSISTENT
Default: nicht_activ
Change to: activ

HU_MGU > CAFD_3E52 > SPURWECHSELASSISTENT
Default: nicht_activ
Change to: gen_1

SAS2 > CAFD_42C1 > C_SWA_VORHANDEN
Default: Nr000_nicht_vorhanden
Change to: NR001_VORHANDEN

SAS2 > CAFD_42C1 > C_SWA_Land_Aktiv
Default?
Change to: FF FF FF FF

I am working on one specifically for "G" series models the problem is my version of Launcher Pro does not allow me to interrogate to Depth 2 level to reveal the start, end line values and the mask allocation. I am presently awaiting for another Forum user who has ESys Expert to supply the information before I can release it to the public domain
