I haven't driven the car for couple weeks and last week EC flashed my TCU with E55 file instead of SL55.
Car couldn't be started with the TCU connected but I can start the car if I disconnected the TCU!
But of course got some malfuctions running without TCU.
Unfortunatelly I couldn't just swap my TCU from my E55, I thought they're the same.



But EC has been very cooperative and will compensate me with something.
I received the reflashed TCU back today:



Plus some new stuff just arrived

Did you just change out the amp for new nav? How hard is taking off the steering wheels? I'm going to change out mine in a week or so, too.

Yes, I'm getting a new amp, a small sub and 2 speakers & tweeters.
I think changing steering wheel is pretty easy.

Looks like I need to test fit everything before painting parts.

First my mirror covers didn't fit...




Now my red-painted paddes also didn't fit, so had to order brand new ones...
