I estimate the same time frame for the S63tu4 with its new security measures as well. So for many years to come we will see tuned F10 M5's beating up on stock F90 M5's at least from 60mph rolls, lol!  |
Going from MSS65(E60 M5) to MEVD17(F10 M5), BMW introduced incredible level of security, much more so then going from MSS52(E39 M5) to MSS65(E60 M5). We have had a way of OBD flashing the MEVD17 for over a year now, but it was just not reliable and has caused many "soft bricked" bench computers. But now there is a new way of doing it SAFELY and that is a very good news.
F90 should not take such a long time to crack since security on it is very similar to the MEVD17, but still a lot of development has to be done before flashing those computers becomes a reality.
