    If I'm able to make it to the meet on june 12th I'll bring my laptop and we can update people's DME's. I have a 10amp charger, 20amps is recommended but I have had no issues. I've updated my car without any type of charger, updated other people's cars using a honda civic and jumper cables with no issues. However they have all been MS43 cars. I would definitely bypass and jump the DME relay Jim Conforti mentioned on your thread Dane before attempting it on MS45's.

    Yeah, I've updated MS42 and MS43 cars (including my own), but extremely hesitant to do an MS45 car after dane's horror story!

    Just a quick 2 cents here.... I had this exact issue when I first bought my car. From 2800-3300 rpms in 5th and 6th gear especially, I noticed a hesitation and power lag.
    After I did the Vanos seals it probably fixed about 60-70% of it and after my AA tune it was gone completely. So maybe you guys can look into those options as a fix? Just an idea.

    The darn little Toshiba Portege I bought to become the Mafia Terminal is so freaking fast with the SSD drive that I am using for daily stuff, I need to break away from it and purpose it back to BMW software only..
