Dinan software and Cruise Control
Has anyone experienced problems with their cruise control?
I could never get mine to work but didn't try very hard ...figuring i just didn't know how to use it. Then I got the Dinan flash. Then I read the manual and learned how to use cruise control ... went to use it and it wouldn't work. Took to dealer, no codes in the computer so they did a reflash. Now my cruise control works. My dealer repair guy asked me "off the record" if i had software on the car .... he was cool with it but just wanted to let me know that it was wiped clean. Question now is whether the Dinan flash caused the cruise control problem or if it was just a coincidence.... I'm now worried about getting the flash re-done. (Dinan will reflash for free) So if you have Dinan software and your cruise control is working please speak up. Thanks.

so i've picked the car up from BMW now.
it's so strange going back to the old throttle map. to be quite honest, i don't like it as much. it's too jumpy and hard to drive smoothly compared to the dinan tune. so as soon as i picked the car up i drove over to my dinan installer and made an appointment for a re-flash of the dinan software. i explained the situation with the cruise control and we're gonna give it another shot. they can revert to the bmw software if needed so i figured it was worth another shot. i'm trying to get this done before this supposed Dinan update. I don't want a jumpy throttle...i prefer power with control. ymmv of course. :w00t:

does anyone think the cruise issue might be that all the documentaion about the car says it has dynamic cruise just like the 3 series when in fact it has regular cruise....is the dinan flash putting the dynamic cruise software on the 135 DME???
