I just saw this thread...I had a tune done on my C55 about a year ago and it is awesome...wondering if this ECU reset would wipe out this mapping or not, anyone know?

its all good, think of the tune as a new operating system that has been installed. The reset is like rebooting your computer, nothing more.

Despite all this being a hoax.. I read every post, in every thread, on every forum regarding this fable. I am kind of an expert.

C32 AMG

Worked like a charm for me. But doing it once a week seems excessive, no?

I’m not a mechanic and I don’t know anything about Mercedes-Benz until a couple of months ago. I just got myself a 2000 C32 AMG. But I question, resetting the ECUso regularly. I mean I don’t have anything that should be reset so much and wonder if that would be healthy for her unit.
