BMW AccessPORT Calibration Updates!

bluecusion · 04-29-2011, 09:29 PM

Hey guys,

did anyone of you guys has had problems with uninstalling the cobb from the car..? I had it for a month and install/uninstalled several times without problem until i tried to uninstall yesterday.. the process went to 100% and then got an ecu error.. car is in stock status now but AP is in recovery mode stating car does not have tune so it cannot recover. i do have latest firmware.

I've already sent my AP to cobb, but just wondering if anyone of you guys had some problems.

chocobo15 · 04-29-2011, 09:54 PM

testing all 3 throttle mappings ... i'm also sold on the standard throttle mapping as well. However, i loved how smooth the v1 throttle mapping was, like buttah

Maxicooper · 04-29-2011, 10:10 PM

A full day motoring around town and on highway, normal drive and occationally push to the limit, all with V2.02/STD93 map and I'm sold.

For me, the map is my most favorite, smooth and on demand.

timtech · 04-29-2011, 10:13 PM

I too enjoy the 202 STD. It reminds me of the Procede dic maps. I'm now glad that I made the change. Kudos to Cobb

Yup! I too just did a bunch of driving on 2.02 Standard Map, its def the best by far! Perfect balance of power and drivability!

Same here, I think 2007 models have an issue again. When I tried to update to the 2.02 maps last night, it went all the way to 100%, then instead of trying to clear the codes, it said communication error and went into recovery mode. After trying at least 5 times, finally it recovered and everything is fine now. I e-mailed Rob already.

I've got an 07 also. It's good to know that I'm not the only one with this issue. I'm just glad the car is running fine even though the AP went into recovery mode. I also was told to send my AP into Cobb.

bluecusion · 04-30-2011, 02:33 AM

Did yours say that the car does not have tune? Mine does not even try to recover due to there is no tune installed on the car..

Car is still running

Ap Manager filter also stuck(can't switch away from Maps)
Tried updating several times, same error

Monster335 · 04-30-2011, 03:23 AM

Do you guys keep the "check for beta firmware" and "check for beta Accessport Manager" checked under the "updates" field when connected to pc? Thx

Bimmeroid · 04-30-2011, 08:47 AM

Mine did the same. I unplugged, reopen the application and reconnected the AP to my OSX. it never showed the error again and said my AP is up to date.

The only difference is my screen was stuck on "checking the AP after the update"

I do...I think there will be a ECU Comm error if it's not checked.

Mine doesn't say that. What happens is, whenever I change maps, it throws a comms error after 100% and goes into recovery mode. Then I can recover it and it works fine after. Sometimes I would have to try multiple times to get out of recovery mode.

That's too bad, erensf. I had the initial ECU Comms error with my 2007 335i as well, but now have no troubles. I updated to the latest firmware and ran the v2.02 Std 93 octane map this morning. I am VERY impressed and pleased. I have no plans to run the alternate V2 or V1 maps as I think the throttle response is terrific as is. Once my Helix FMIC comes in, I know my next purchase: Escort Passport or Valentine 1!

Tuner1984 · 04-30-2011, 01:09 PM

I had an error when trying to switch maps where nothing would happen. It would just get stuck at verifying and loading maps. Talked with Cobb yesterday. I was told to delete all the maps through the AP manager. They said the original maps would still be on the AP the very first time you loaded the firmware onto the AP. So if your having issues with the new maps try deleting all the maps in the AP manager and then try to reload the AP onto your car.

bluecusion · 04-30-2011, 01:25 PM

I do have the latest firmware and AP... and mine does not even trying to recover and says "Error, car is stock"
.. hopefully, i get my AP back soon from Cobb..

MikesBMW · 04-30-2011, 01:45 PM

have you guys noticed your oil temps have gone up after installing the Cobb AP? mine is now consistently at about 230-240 engine temp for normal highway driving, it gets up to 250-255 when i push it for 10 mins or so. is this normal? / acceptable? mid point on my gauge is 210 and highest marking is 300

Nope. I don't even have an oil cooler or upgraded FMIC. 250-255 is perfectly normal. If it gets above 265 I would start to worry.

If you have the oil style gauge like I do you probably don't have the oil cooler either but you should really check yourself.

Jbabl · 04-30-2011, 02:16 PM

Completely uninstalled AP manager, started all over, now AP says up to date.
I may have disturbed the structure of the files somehow(trackpad on macbook pro might have done it)
Now that I've downloaded the new maps, do I drag them into the APMaps folder and then update with search for maps?

Thanks

Jbabl · 04-30-2011, 02:40 PM

OK, problem returned with the same error after I clicked on check for beta firmware in Options. 2007 cars should have this checked as far as I know.
So now AP manager went back to not being able to show any files under Manage, AP back to being stuck on "Updating"
