Dinan and 2011 535i

Any updates from Dinan on when or if a release is coming for engine software? I have Dinan stage 2 on 335i. I am picking up my car tomorrow and just looking ahead.

Thanks

I called them and they don't have an ETA on the software yet. It should be soon though. They don't have the springs yet either. This is what they said in an email:

"We are working on it as fast as we can!!! This n55 engine is very different mechanically from the n54 along with BMW switching from Bosh to Siemens control units. We are starting from scratch on this one. No ETA yet from engineering."

Hartge already has the product available: http://www.hartge.de/

They're still having issues integrating it with the Flexray in the newer cars.

Response from Dinan on 03/13.......

We have been making good progress on the communication “challenges”. Wouldn’t be surprised if they have this cracked in the next month or so.
