Hi mate, they shouldn't know it's been remapped unless they have reason to go looking for it, there are no tell tale signs and unless they take it for a drive they wont know...

When you have it remapped make sure you know if the tuner will put you another map in if it is "lost" during a factory software upgrade..:)

Hi guys,

I'm expecting delivery of a 318d in January as a company car.

If I get it remapped, is there any way that my company might find out?

Are there any "tell tale signs" that would give the game away?

Would my local BMW dealiership ever know?

Any help much appreciated :)

Hi Matt

If they test drive it then it can be a give away, but the software should be mapped in a way that it cannot be seen.

The MSD80 equipped 135i's will show up a remap on the dealer tools, but yours uses the EDC17 ECU which does not come up on the diagnostics tools.

If its a 2009 onwards model you will have the latest encrypted processor in the ECU. Currently, we are are the only UK tuner that have cracked these ECUs
