E55 tune up?
Yesterday i installed my Green filters & did the ECU reset & my car felt significantly quicker than before. I thought it was in my head, but after driving the car this morning to work, i felt it & i'm sure that there was an big improvement.

I also did the ECU reset and installed green filters!!!
Then I took it to the track. The results.........no change in ET or trap speed.
Sorry, but it made no difference in my car.

4. Wait at least two minutes for ECU to reset.

I'm pretty sure that this reset works with any of the drive-by wire cars, I did it yesterday and I felt a little more snap and throttle response.......good stuff.
