F10 M5 Bootmod3 Issues

VSA · 02-21-2022, 12:13 PM

Anybody having issues with maps after recent loading?
I cannot restore an old map and my Tuner says its because Boodmod3 had Firmware updates. Also having issues with the car stalling at 210kmph in 5th, 6th or 7th gear. If Speed Limiter option is de-selected, then car activates Drive Train error when driven hard. Tuner suggested I change the Tuning platform because this appears to be a Bootmod3 problem. Any suggestions or thoughts??

No problems here. However, I'm running a modified stock tune only to remove CEL, no power increase for reliability concerns.

Been running BM3 stage 1 for over a year with none of these symptoms. Car drives like stock, but with A LOT more power.

Mine just had this issue. I flashed it, it failed, then once it successfully flashed, the car wouldn't start. The factory tune would work fine, but anything aftermarket would result in a crank only, no fire situation. Serge from Protuningfreaks had to remote in and reflash it/upgrade the software.
