    Question reguarding Dealership pcm update

    So, Apparently there's a newer version for my e40 pcm, if i had the dealership update, would the credits I already spent be wasted or would i be safe doing a write entire back to as found, then having them update it?

    It depends on a few things, first I would need to see how your vehicle was licensed.

    If you did a year/model license, no you shouldn't need to spend any more credits
    If you licensed your ecm by the serial number of the ecm, no you shouldn't need to spend any more credits if they aren't completely replacing your ecm
    If you licensed your ecm via vin/os pair, yes you would need to license the new vin/so pair
    It doesn't have to be perfect, it just needs to be done in two weeks...

    A wise man once said "google it"

    infolog or your license information screen will tell you this information
