A new firmware update is available for all BMW AccessPORTs. This update adds support for a couple of ECUs that were not covered in the last release as well as fixes some minor issues with automatic transmission equipped vehicles relating to throttle hesitation and shifting issues. It also adds new features to the AccessPORT for DTC code reading and clearing of all modules in the vehicle as well as OEM ROM backup should the original AccessPORT be broken or lost.

New Features

The AccessPORT now allows all BMW users to download, store and backup the OE ROM to their PC or MAC for later use. This ensures that the original ROM found on the ECU can be reinstalled in the event that the original AccessPORT unit is lost, damaged or otherwise compromised. BMW AccessPORT users can now reload this ROM using any AccessPORT installed on their car.

DTC codes for any module in the vehicle can now be cleared and reset with the AccessPORT. This includes all control units peripheral to the DME/ECU. The AccessPORT can now be used to scan and reset any trouble code present on the vehicle.

New ROMs

This update now adds functionality to the following ROMs. If you are still waiting for support, update to this firmware version and install your AccessPORT.

• 0044CC0IF80SIFP2S
• 0044CC0IJE0SIEB3S

Bug Fixes

This update addresses the odd shifting behavior and throttle response hesitation present on some automatic transmission equipped vehicles. Updating the AccessPORT firmware and flashing one of the included maps will fix these issues.

*Note*

If you have not already updated to firmware version 1.6.3.2-1275, you must first uninstall your AccessPORT before updating to this latest release version 1.6.3.2-1300.

If you have already updated your AccessPORT to 1.6.3.2-1275 firmware, you may update your AccessPORT firmware normally without uninstalling. Simply plug the AccessPORT into your computer, launch AccessPORT Manager, and click the Updates button in the top icon bar.
