    DIY: M track Mode for non-M MK60s

    Disclaimer: This is merely what I've done to attempt to install M Track Mode on my ZHP. I am not responsible for any damages to your vehicle following my guide. Nothing should go wrong, but be warn, it can happen! Proceed at your own risk!

    MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR DATEN FILES! Once the module is updated with new parameters, it cannot tell what is new values and what were the original values anymore. The only way to go back to defaults is to restore from a backup of the files. I made a full copy of the E46 modules in a separate folder.

    What this guide does:
    This is a guide to modify a non-M module to accept M3 MK60 Module values. This setup was written for my ZHP with a M3 LSD installed. The goal was to enable M track mode on a non-M with an LSD which meant a hybrid set of values between an M3 ZCP and 330i ZHP.

    I complied the differences between my ZHP, std M3 and ZCP M3 here:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing

    Disclaimer #2
    I do not know what exactly the new understeer and oversteer values actually do on a non-M module. However, they seem to actually exist in the module. I added them and enabled them without any errors in DIS.Overall, DSC was far less instrusive (single press of DSC) and it definitely felt a lot better than before. Caveat is that I do have a M3 LSD and it may be different to setup for a non-M without one. Anything outside this scope of this guide is virtually unknown to me!

    NON-M without LSD:
    LOGIK_HA_SPERRE should be nicht_aktiv
    SPERRDIFFERENZREGELUNG should stay aktiv


    Now on to the good stuff:


    Requirements:
    • Working NCSexpert
    • NCSDummy
    • MK60 Module ie. 2003+MY


    This guide also assumes you already know how to change options via NCSexpert. I will not go into any detail about this. There are other threads that can help you with this.


    1. Open up NCSexpert and figure out which version of the MK60 Module you have. I have a MK60.C12 so this guide will follow modifying this module. You can just read the data on your MK60 module and it will tell you the number in the middle. This picture show the DSC is .C10



    2. Load up NCSDummy and select the MK60.C12 module



    3. Right click the option you want to add a new parameter to.



    4. In this example its "wert_08" and data value "d3". See the bottom for the list of new values to add. Go to each option and add the corresponding value and data value then proceed to the next step.



    5. Once finished adding all the new parameters, go to the left bottom and update the module.



    6. You are done! Now you can reload the module to confirm the new values have been added.



    7. Use NCSexpert and set the MK60 to use the following values:

    Red=LSD Values

    Logic Limited-Slip Differential
    LOGIK_HA_SPERRE aktiv
    Differential Locking Control
    SPERRDIFFERENZREGELUNG nicht_aktiv
    Pre-Engine Drag-Torque Control
    PRE_MSR aktiv
    Oversteer Friction Coeff. 1
    UEBERSTEUERN_MUE_0_2 wert_08
    Oversteer Friction Coeff. 2
    UEBERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2 wert_11
    Understeer Threshold
    UNTERSTEUERSCHWELLE_2 wert_04
    Understeer Friction Coeff 1
    UNTERSTEUERN_MUE_0_2 wert_02
    Understeer Friction Coeff 2
    UNTERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2 wert_03



    New Values to add to the MK60 Module
    These values were gathered from the MK60.C06 module. It appears this module is the M3 module and has all the values from a ZCP/STD M3 in it.


    Option: UEBERSTEUERN_MUE_0_2
    Parameter: wert_08
    Data Value: D3

    Option: UEBERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2
    Parameter: wert_11
    Data Value: 80

    Option: UNTERSTEUERSCHWELLE_2
    Parameter: wert_04
    Data Value: 13

    Option:UNTERSTEUERN_MUE_0_2
    Parameter: wert_02
    Data Value: 60

    Option: UNTERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2
    Parameter: wert_03
    Data Value: 20




    Hopefully this will work for others. I have not tried this on any other car besides my own. Good luck and enjoy M Track mode, I think. If anyone does try this, please report back that it works! I hope that we can gather more information on what exactly these values does and how a non-M with no LSD will react to this.

    Thanks guys. Matt, M track mode (DSC OFF w/ Training wheels) is enable for a non-M. That itself is the jist.

    Derbo,

    Great work. I will give it a shot when the car is back on the road this week. Thanks for taking the time to do this for all of us to enjoy.
