Update. I removed the battery cables. Disconnect the rear auxiliary battery. And removed the ecu. Waited about 45 min plugged everything back up. Went for a ride then let it cool then started her up again went for a highway pull. Absolutely felt different. That insane tq feels as if it’s almost fully back. And now it shift extremely brutal again. So I’ll be going back to the track to see if it’s my butt dyno lying to me or if I’ll actually get a better time. Atleast low 11. If not that’s fine car still feels beast. And it will give me an excuse for a custome tune
FYI, I swap out my ECU’s more than I would like to. I have never needed to disconnect the battery(s). Tuners never do either when they disconnect them. Its really unecessary overkill. These ECU’s are diode protected against back EMF that occurs when disconnecting a power source. But dont come after me if something goes wrong. LOL! ! If you feel the need, do it. I am just trying to save you time and headache next time bud.
Again, I had a feeling about your ECU when you mentioned it was tuned. Hope the track drops a 10.9 ! !
Cheers

SUCCESS!
Use the “e63 074” and NOT the “e63 077”
Use it with engine off but ingnition on.
Code cleared on first try. Now I will see if it comes back. If it does, then it goes in to dealer.
Thanks Again

wait: you have a code even after your new engine? Wouldn't the dealer tech have cleared this after the engine was tested and installed?

Hopefully you didnt pay more than about $92 delivered. If you have any questions when you use it at first, let me know. Help you if I can.
It is a nice unit though. Much more specific in detail than my former code reader. It is actually specialized for MB.
Good Luck

It was just an O2 sensor that had a weird “delayed reaction”. Not engine related. It came on about 2 days after I got the car back. I cleared it today and we will see if it returns. Worst case is they install a new O2 sensor. SA was not concerned at all. He even said it might clear on its own. I just sped it up a bit by clearing it.

Hi J,
Sorry for the late reply. I believe you might be confusing my comments about disconnecting the ECU without the need to disconnect the battery with the use of the iCarsoft reader for use to clear codes. I am not aware of anything the iCarsoft brings that will aid in not having to disconnect batteries. I do know that it is quite a bit more comprehensive in giving better descriptions of the various codes as it is specialized for MB models. All models.
Here is the model and Amazon page that I bought mine from. Looks like it went up a bit in price. I only paid about $92.
Here it is
