ECU coding is considered to be a major software update, that’s why it can only be performed by BMW dealers or stores equipped with professional programming equipment. Also, if everything works correctly and you don’t have new equipment installed that needs to be programmed, it is recommended not to do this kind of update. Unjustified upgrades can cause complications and may be risky for your BMW.
