OE means Original Equipment, so there is no OE tuning available, only folklore...

Sometimes changing the oil and filters is the best tuning....

The same company that sell copyrighted software claimed that is their creation, same company that's sell .cbf and .smr files copied from Xentry claimed that's own creations....?

OE means.... Original Equipment.....and Original you can get from MBUSA fot far less and so on....

It's a company for the ones who can't read or write English.
Being a Junior here is very important, enjoy....ask and share your experience so any newbie can learn.

Reason I said this is because the banner isn't showing up for the other forum member. Honestly, pick what works for you. I have no biased recommendations towards any provider.

So I am actually curious now what do you mean by this, what does this entails? Since your reply is the opposite in the other thread and stated you are charging for the services.

Of course not. You are extremely helpful here without any hidden agenda.

It should be apparent who the slanderer is here. Anyone who makes false statements publicly about someone with the intent to harm their reputation, business, etc., is a slanderer. Calling someone a Nigerian Ninja that steals other people's work on an open forum like this, without proof, is slander.

It depends on what you want from OE Tuning. I actually got a tune from them for my 2004 SL500 a few years ago. Honestly, though they claim it would add something like 17 hp, I never could tell a difference. Of course, 17 hp was like a 6% gain for a NA engine. But, it was my fault to expect any real gains with just a tune on a NA engine. It's really not a criticism of OE Tuning, but just the real limitation of NA tunes. ECU tunes are best left to turbo cars.

What year and model do you have?

This is one of the proofs Sir!

17HP OE tuning is in fact the Pedal Characteristics KLD1, KLD2, etc. This is explained on this forum in very detail.

No OE tuning, besides false statement.
On this forum to pay for changing the Pedal Characteristics is quite wrong.

Ask for any mods and I and maybe others will help for free, where free means - no money, no subscription, nothing, free on public threads.

I have no idea what you are talking about. Regardless how OE Tuning accoumplished the change in performance (however mild it was), it was a service they sold. However, it appears they no longer offer that ECU tune.

Just because I can enable or disable certain features using a LAUNCH scanner, that does not invalidate the work of others. I don't call Mid City Engineering scammers or frauds just because they sell a product to disable ECO Start/Stop.

If you are running a diesel, there are several tuners that can offer off-the-shelf solutions. You should check with OE Tuning and Vivid Racing. I have a Vivid Racing tune form my SL400 that I am very happy with.
