What you're describing is for the TCU. That "reset" thread with the E55 was about resetting shift points. Sounds basically the same that you're saying for the E63.

We're talking ECU. That takes a Star diagnostics reset, afaik.
I understand what you are saying,,,maybe its me that a little slow,,,but even it were a transmission TCU reset,,,how do you explain the added punch when you accelerate? My thought is that there is something that resets the adaptives and that is what's in the engine ECU.......maybe I'm wrong,,,I don't know,,,I can only tell you what I feel!

A gizmo that resets the adaptations (ECU and Tranny) at each startup would be a SWEET mod.

All the more reason to buy a STAR unit....
Jangy, does this actually do what resetting via Star does? Any bad side effects?

You have to synchronize all the items that are saved...windows, sunroof, and probably some others.
