DME Software Version

[hxman]

I am currently getting some services done and would like to know how can tell what software version the DME is currently at?

Will this be printed on the sheets after the tech reads my key? And what should this software version number look like?

Thanks

are you at Elite or Otto's? i have an appointment with Otto's on 13th and hopefully they'll be able to update me to the latest DME as my DCT idle lag is terrible!

I always go and see Krszystof. treats me well and he's a very nice guy. i highly suggest seeing him if you deal with Otto's.

At Otto's today getting some work done...

I also asked them to check the RPM surge from 500 to 1100 RPM's.... I have the PPK1 currently and it still has that annoying bottom end lag and the surge issue mentioned in other posts...

[hunginator]

Please let me know the outcome after your service. I hope that they're able to update the DME software for you and that it resolves the idle rpm surging weirdness.

Does anyone know the latest SIB to bring up?

[hxman]

So they were able to recreate the problem and they adjusted the idle only... No software upgrade... I will monitor the issue to see if it comes back....

[hunginator]

Did you show them the service bulletin number?

[hxman]

No, but so far so good with no surging and the annoying lag appears to have been corrected. I will keep you posted as I monitor the issue..... Does SIB apply to all vehicles, for example cars with PPK's installed??????

[hunginator]

I believe they apply to all n55 motors with DCT regardless of PPK.

Good to hear that your idling problem has been fixed though.

[hxman]

Just as an FYI the idle was adjusted +150 rpm.........

[hunginator]

Is that a bad thing...?

[hxman]

Nope, just saying what they did and it seemed to correct the problem...

[hunginator]

did you also have throttle lag issues or just the idling problem?

car is now in the shop and getting the DME software update. at the same time, they're replacing my faulty AC evaporator which explains why my AC has never felt cool.

i should be getting my car back on thursday so i can't wait to feel how the car will run with the new software... and of course, cool blowing AC!

[hunginator]

got my car back. they updated the DME software.

idling issue is now gone and transmission downshifts with a/c turned on is now silky smooth. i am happy again!

my a/c is also blowing good cold air.

my only complaint is that the dash had to be taken apart to replace my a/c evaporator. i don't think the technicians did a very good job re-installing my dash as i hear many creeks and squeaks every now and then.

What does your work order say the new DME software version is?
Thanks

i was trying to look for that on the word order after i got home... it is no where to be found. it just says 'upgraded to latest software'.

A quick call to your dealer tomorrow should answer the question. It would be great to know since you are the most recent person to have their DME updated :-)

[hunginator]

service dept is closed tomorrow. i'll call them on monday!

Did your AC not blow cold air at all or did it stop working above a certain exterior temperature?

[hunginator]

it didn't blow AC at all to the driver side. the passenger side was getting much cooler air... but now it's even everywhere.
