Thanks guys. At the recent Tech Session in San Diego, I asked the tech if my software should be updated. He reported that my software was last updated/representative of a 2005 version. Not sure if this is the same thing as the DME reflash as I'm wondering if more needs to be/could be done in-house per the posted thread above; separate from sending to NJ. The tech didn't seem to indicate a need to update the software based upon his review but I've now found a few posts from some of the mafia indicating multiple updates (flashing?). Aplogies if my question/concern is too elementary. I'll just contact an indy (Euro Auto Spot in SD) to see if they can update post 2005 version.
I had my DME reprogrammed under warranty in Fall 2007 and it took 3 1/2 weeks! You'd think they would be in a rush but no, they shipped it ground both ways to NJ. Whatever, I had a 335i rental on their dime so it was a nice change. Sadly my 4k dip returned after 500 or so miles. It doesn't do it every time but if I floor it just at the right time I can get it to do it on cue.
Does anyone know when they came out with the newer designed DISA valve?

Did you get a printout? The latest BMW software version is 7561520. IIRC, it dates back to 2005.
Assuming you're planning to install performance software, this has been addressed elsewhere but for clarification:
Get the latest BMW software prior to installing performance software (not vice versa). You do not need to go to a dealer for this. An indie shop equipped with autologic can do this for you. Note: not all indie shops are so equipped.
It was given a new part number as of April, 2004. Part # 11617544805.
My dme update was done at and indie shop. I'll look at the paperwork when i get home, they gave me the printout.
I think the newest BMW software came out in 2008.
