not sure but I think they're all ULEV now. Either way, I'm pretty sure in this case, ULEV denotes the emmissions standard, not the actual classification of the engine itself.

There are differences between the V6's where some of them are E85 and others are just E10.

Eric, do you know what the procedure is of resetting the ecu? By this I mean whenever you are doing a change DAS in regular mode it resets the module for you. In developer mode you have to reset the module yourself. I selected ULEV before but it doesn't make the change. I believe I am not resetting the module (ECU) correctly and it's jumping back to the setting.

The damn thing doesn't even let me go into dyno mode so I can atleast see what model and version it is

OK I got it, I'm uploading the pic now



Seems right huh?

Don't mind the OL- that's the oil sensor but I heard we just have the one that says it's low not exact amount (FAIL)

you should talk to brian at gtpro. I had a pretty good talk with him about his c63 at the meet. He definately sounds like a knowledgable guy. I was talking to him about a 3.2L to 3.7L build for my c32

He gave a pretty price to my evo buddy for a evo tune.

Great, I'll definitely talk to him. Does anyone know if our cars come with an Undo button?

I fixed it guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No error and now I can turn on and off my traction control. Before the triangle didn't come up.





There was an overide feature which was EU4 and NAG1 and 3.27.

I changed those to ULEV, NAG2 and 2.82 and it worked. Then I was able to select the right w203 version in the previous pic.

I'm soo glad it works now. Last thing to do is test to see if ESP really works. I did a full scan and got no faults. Before I use to get ESP fault and the code stored said ESP not properly coded with Engine Management.

I deffinetly learned my lesson.

--------------------
Mike, I checked on this and there is a feature. Before anything you can download the code and save it and when stuff goes wrong you can just upload your saved data.

I couldn't have done this without Eric. He gave me some good info. He explained to me what each of those codes mean. Without that I would have probably messed up my car even more lool

Hmm, best would probably be here. The guy that runs that site is the STAR "underground" guru. But, I went the cheaper route with a Chinese clone multiplexer and cables on Ebay You will then have to get the software and the install keys from www.jcrecordings.com All these methods are NOT "legit", but will work. Legit STAR from MB will set you back $20K.

Tested it today ESP works fine, no problems with car, I believe everything is fine now. Hopefully this will be a lesson to our DAS explorers. Be very careful when you play with Developer Mode.

Ed, I am up at 4am every morning and I hate it, but I like a paycheck too

I had Sunil make most of the changes I want to coding. Unfortunately I got STAR to help fix all my problems, not fun coding Here is my list:

1)Reset my memory seats and positions. Easy exit is broken for my seat, and my wife can BARELY drive the car because the damn seat doesn't go far enough forward. It used too. Hope I can fix it with STAR.

2)Fix my ongoing CEL for code P0012. Hoping to be able to test camshaft control so I can fix it once and for all w/o just throwing new parts at it.

3)Fix my sunroof. Auto open and close both just move a few inches, then go back the opposite direction. Tried the re-sync several times with no luck.

4)I want to change my oil change my service intervals on the MFD to every 10K. Sunil set it for 9300 miles.

5)I want to service the 7G myself, and to do that correctly is much easier with STAR.

You can definitely do #3. I have mine set so that it does not stop when it detects something in the way. My sunroof will crush cans now. It's best to get the sunroof re-greased first though, that's really the problem.

Eric, I clean and re-grease it every year. I also clean and condition the seals 2-3 times per year. Even if I "help" the sunroof close by pushing it along in the direction it moves, it still stops and retracts.

I'd like to get my sunroof going again. However, I think it will take a complete rebuild as I shut her permanently some years ago.

I do have my sunshade working though.

Yeah that's definitely fix-able. There's the "snap little kids fingers with the sunroof" setting, just set this to "PRESENT"
