DME Control Module Programming: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 136 other vehicles, including the 2008 BMW 760Li, 2008 BMW 650i, 2007 BMW Z4, 2007 BMW X5, and 2007 BMW X3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
DME programming is used to change a "basic control unit" into a "programed control unit" by writing operating instructions onto a blank EPROM. Programming is also used to update an existing DME program by writing additional instructions that compliment the existing software. Programming is used on DME M3.X variants.
