Since the BM3 kit connects to CANBUS via the BDM inside the car, you'll have no problems.
The most popular plug-and-play MHD kit connects to PTCAN2 on the auto transmission plug; however, that's not an option due to your transmission and because BM3 currently does not support PTCAN2 for flex...
Not if youre femto.
MHD & BM3 will not allow you do relock your factory ecu if you have a femto unlock.
You can email bm3 so they can enable this, but they are very hard to get support from
For the smart people who think keeping their OE ecu stock for some special occasion, let me burst your bubble. When you reinstall that ECU, you get a code for the mileage not matching. Probably the only thing worse than losing your factory warranty is having a bad carfax.
To pass smog you'll...
Let's get some facts straight here.
Every ECU can be flashed back to stock.
Flashing back to a stock calibration does not effect the unlock.
No one is going to spend the expense of cloning unless they plan on going to EcuTek and have big power goals.
How does this have anything to do with emissions?
If any ecu gets updated, it would need to be unlocked again.
Dont bring your car in to Toyota and you have nothing to worry about
MHD is activated licensed by vin.
MHD is no transferable from custom to customer.
Femto doesn't clone anymore.
If you bought a PostJune Femto Unlocked ECU, then you've waste money.
We clone, and so does BIMMERECU, no one else.
Pick who you want to work with and email them.
There is no...
youre right, whoops.
thought that was one of the 20 ads crashing my firefox as I view this.
yeah, states are cracking down on that stuff because of loss of tax income.
In CT for example we have the normal sales tax, but then property tax on registered vehicles.. my truck is $1300/year smh
Then you should just say that.
Your post implies that there a way to do something with the software.
If you have a solution, why don't you just share it.
Registering the car 'out of state' offers other problems in a lot of places.
Where I'm from they give very large tickets for operating...
Didn't know you were a tuner now.
It is NOT possible, and if it was, we'd never do it.
Saying things like this online only causes confusion and attracts unwanted attention.
If you want attention, go sell drugs on facebook market place.
Covered almost daily.
October 2019 was the first flash update that locked the ECUs preventing a OBD unlock.
Any car that has this October update will need a bench unlock, regardless of the build date.
You need a bench unlock and I would recommend MHD+ and EcuTek over bm3.
When you flash their Flex Fuel OTS map in you can run any blend between E0 to E70 etc , their tune makes the most power at E40.
My custom tunes make the most at E50, but its not a huge different from my E40 settings.
Any custom tune will make more than the OTS Flex Fuel, but its a good map to...
