Hey guys with the help of Cbad335 I installed a Procede this last weekend. Everything seems to be working just fine besides 2 episodes of limp mode, but I think that was my own fault and driving habit at the time. Turned off the car, turned on and everything has run fine since.

My question is for an MSport car that is 6AT and only mods are DCI and Procede should I be running Stage 0 Map 1 or Stage 1 Map 1? Vishnus site specifies stage1 for unmodified or lightly modified cars. But then why have a stage 0?

Iirc, map 0 is a bypass map and map 1 is a light autotuning map. Run map 1

Thanks.

+1, you should be running map 1. However, I don't think the new 9/10 maps are autotuning. Check the Vishnu website; it may help to clear adaptations before running the new maps. Also, review your service records for plug changes. If your plugs have never been changed, it may be helpful to install a fresh set.

[cbad335]

Jesse, read the Read Me First file for that map. It outlines the procedure for clearing adaptations:

Step 5: Once uploaded, go to Mode 3 on the Command Center and do commands 12 thru 1 (12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 in that order). It's also a good idea to wait 10 seconds once Command 3 is executed (DME reset) before progressing to 2 and then 1.
Step 6: Go to COMMS menu in user software and select "Reset Procede". This will take a few seconds. With the newer user software, you will have to manually go offline/online since the software will not automatically recover from the Reset.
Step 7: Turn ignition power fully OFF and wait 5 seconds

Here is a link to the procede user manual: http://procedetuning.com/BMW/n54/dow...r%20Manual.pdf
Check out the command center section

Thanks Steve. I have been running the map 1 on the car since we installed it and I did find all those same links and directions. I was just curious as to what the difference was for Stage 0 and Stage 1 as per Vishnu's site the 9-10 maps are not autotuning.

The car is going in for servicing this weekend so I will have them do/check the plugs and everything else as well. Then once I re-install the Procede I will do all the resets and commands along with some datalogs hopefully, just so I have a baseline.

My car's not starting and I've been stuck in Coronado for over an hour waiting for a tow truck that's stuck in traffic...fml

My car wouldn't start during lunch time, so I left it and had a coworker give me a ride back to work. Once I got off work I went to my car and I had a ticket on my windshield for no front plate. I tried jump starting it but that didn't work, so I called a tow truck. I waited almost 3 hours for the tow truck because it was stuck in traffic. Then the tow truck shows up and they sent a wrecker, not a flat bed. There's a lot of dips in Coronado and on one of them, we heard a loud rubbing type noise. The driver stopped and saw that the straps holding the car wheels to the truck had come off. We finally get to the Coronado bridge and its closed! It took 2 hours to get from Coronado to Clairemont going through the silver strand. When I finally got home, I noticed that my wheels were scratched as well as the bottom of my front bumper. I also noticed that now I have an ABS warning light on my dash that wasn't there before.

Does anyone know a mechanic that can come to my house to check out my car and find out why its not starting? Or do you guys think I should get it towed to a shop? I'm sure its not the battery because I replaced that about a month ago. From reading on here, it seems like it might be the starter.

I need this, too, but I've heard diesels don't even have a visual inspection, just a scan for codes.

Hey guys, I think this has been asked before, sorry for the repeat question, but aren't there advisors in South County BMW that are sympathetic to JB4 tunes that are installed? If it saves me taking it out, that would be great.

I want to take the car in for warranty repair because it seems to be eating antifreeze. I've had to top it off twice in the last 2-3 weeks. Any thoughts?

[supahdave]

Wheel pics.

Fronts: 19x8.5, ET35, 235/35-19 Nitto Tires (80% tread)
Rears: 19x10, ET30 (may require rolling fenders on LCIs), 265/30-19 Nitto NT555 tires (70% tread left)

Wheels have never been curbed. there is one small mark (think its from a pothole) but the wheels have been repowdercoated in november, which covers it. Wheels are in great shape.

The new powdercoat is awesome, it looks alot lighter in daylight and at night its darker, as you can see from the pics. Powdercoat was done in escondido at electro-tech.

take it out or they will charge you to do so.

Just make sure Nick works on your car.
