News: bootmod3

We've added a new feature to enable users to selectively remove DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) on maps. In the cases of extensive hardware mods relating to the engine or its accessories there are times when its nice to turn off certain codes from coming up.

This DOES NOT in any way help resolve any mechanical issues one may be having. In some other cases, turning off a code will also not resolve an issue where additional custom tuning is necessary to fully address the problem.

However, in situations where the source/cause of a given code are well understood and users are comfortable turning it off to 'clean things up' this is a really neat feature to get that done.

bootmod3 system update 0.10.093 is out along with the new OBD Agent. Changes include:

• Additional vehicle support
• Ability to datalog secondary DME on dual DME cars (e.g. S63tu, N63tu)
• Changes to datalogging configuration screen splitting Default and Other channels along with an Advanced tab for configuring RAM channels covering a large number of new channels across various software versions supported. "Advanced" tab isn't available outside of bm3 internal dev test cars just yet but will be open to a wider beta and public release very soon. More details to follow soon.
• Offline Mode menu item accessible while logged in to allow for easy toggle between online and offline modes while logged in
• Various minor UI updates and fixes

• Popup error that mentioned Needing full flash before recoding, resolved.

Map configuration screen descriptions for all settings and values available.

This should help those using the screen for the first time get a sense of what the values are if or when they may not be clear. I realize some of you will enjoy these being added right in the screen even though all of them are documented in the actively maintained bootmod3 User Manual.

UPDATE: 0.10.083 is now out. Joining the club with the S55 and recent N55 release, map configuration now also includes Startup Roar for B58 and B48 F and G series vehicles, including the A90 Supra!

As usual, Web version is up to date with the latest, android some time later today and iOS once Apple approves the app release (anywhere between 1-5 days if no complaints from their end).

More updates to follow soon!

New bootmod3 features!

First one is ‘MAX cooling mode’ - this will reduce your water coolant targets by 10 degrees Celsius and applies to ALL engines and ROM versions!

Moreover, for the B series engines this enables the intercooler pump to be active at all times to lower intake air temperatures 🙌🏼

bootmod3 closed beta for the B48 engines has been a great success and we're excited to announce the wait is finally over!

Our development and testing teams have worked tirelessly on BMW B48 engine feature support over the past few months. Once B58 was released back in April focus shifted to B48 testing with a wider closed beta. Initial flash time that includes unlocking the DME is around 3 minutes and switching maps takes just 19 seconds using the standard ENET-OBD cable available on Amazon/eBay or through even some authorized dealers.

Its been a ton of fun working through the initial development and w're really looking forward to seeing where the platform takes us from here!
