E90 320d PFL SW update

peraklo · 02-27-2017, 05:14 AM

It's an M47 engine with 163 bhp.

Went to the indy shop who hooked it up to diag and said that the SW in my car was dated way back to 2008.

He offered to upgrade it to the latest, which would lighten my wallet for about €200. So before I possibly spring out to do it, I was wondering what would I gain with this complete SW overhaul? Are there any significant changes or changelogs available online so I could read through them?

Most of these software upgrades don't do that much .
Get specifics before you do it .
Also you have a working car now you might not after the
upgrade. Unless it is a specific tune with specific results I wouldn't do it.
Since we don't get the diesel in the US most the knowledge of
that engine is small here . We do know that there is Carbon Build up
in turbo diesel that needs to be cleaned.
I would take your question to the correct subforum this one is for stereo .
