disable adaptive tcu learning.

I did a tcu reset last week and I really liked it, but now it feels like grandma going to church again. I'm getting a kleeman ecu tune very soon, will that help? Or do I need to get a tcu flash as well?

You can reset the tcu yourself and it'll only take 2 minutes every few days.

*have the car in the ON position with all doors closed
*press the gas pedal all the way and hold it for 5 seconds (a few extra seconds are ok too)
*while your foot is still on the gas pedal, turn the car off and leave the key in
*take your foot off the gas pedal and wait 2 minutes

There won't be any signals to let you know this process was completed so take your car for a drive to see.

@Domm: This is the accelerator reset, in no way connected to the TCU or about disabling the Adaptive Learning. There are about 30 threads on the "Reset Accelerator" subject in this W204 Forum.

@snowmuch: Link for an extreme solution by Weistec for the 7G, although this is for the 7G/700 from a C63, Weistec has informed me that they can also do this for the 7G/400.

Another link which explains, in post No. 15, WHY the 7G is so laggardly:

I am looking for a solution to remove the Adaptive Learning with a redo of the TCU 2010 software update as you had, so those lightning shifts dont disappear, will post soon.
