Once it is set you leave it installed. You do not remove it.

Yeah, if you leave it installed you may skew your bank to bank AFRs. It's blending 2 signals into one so long term the result isn't optimal. But the DP Fix literally takes 10 minutes to install or uninstall plus the time to remove your cowl. I timed myself a couple of months ago and it took 8 minutes as it's just 3 wires.
I personally think the easiest way to check readiness is to have a $20 code scanner. Any OBD scanner from Amazon or the local parts store will work. It will show you readiness status for all monitors and if you throw a code it will show that as well. Obviously not as good as the BMW specific scanners, but for emissions it works perfectly. That's what I use to pass emissions. Install DP Fix and start drive cycle. Then scan it every once in a while when I get to a stop light and see what monitors aren't ready yet. Then do the portion of the cycle that sets that monitor and get it tested. I set readiness in 30 minutes this time as I had an empty highway to do the cruising portion so it was easy. It's much harder in stop and go traffic. |

2 questions:
1. I personally hate the idea of pushing pins in and out of connectors. Can you source the male and female connectors so your version would directly plug in-line between the original connector and DME? 2. Do you have a position for disabling the DP fix altogether like the BMS version? |

Ahh, turns out I won't know for quite a while. My exhaust was back ordered until late June and I don't really want to do DP and exhaust separately. I'll check around and see if people still need vouching though after that

Hi, forgive me I'm a newbie in terms of turbocharged cars. Recently upgraded from an N52 to an N55. I'm planning to get a catless downpipe soon but have been reading that it'll produce a CEL. Is this what your device prevents? Does it matter if my car is a RHD? Emissions is of no concern to me because of where I reside. I just don't want to be disappointed the moment I put on that catless downpipe. Thanks.
