Good to hear


Did you mean FIRMWARE

And how did you go about doing that


I did the retrofit and the only thing that does not work is the lettering and sport name that comes on the dash board


When pressed, my suspension and steering stiffens and a bit snappier on shifts - and thats a fact


Did only the retrofit, no coding


Great job

I didn't know about S1-S5 when I coded mine. Now I have something to try and figure out.


Great work!

First you need to coding all, replace the option for $ 205 option $ 2TB.After coding you should see sport on the display when you press the sport (in the button will illuminate green LED).
Then you need to change the firmware only gearbox (not flashing shiftboks).

You can replace the firmware shiftboks if you want to keep the old Handle (lever for gear selector).
That's all.

Hi Bert

I drove to the man,which encodes the cars over the years.
To change the flash it took him about 15 minutes.

Since the transmission was firmware $ 205, after coding no response was, as soon as the transmission reflash for $ 2TB all functions now work.
In the cars with the option of $ 205 and $2TB different firmware in the gearbox.

No. S1-S5 is displayed then when I move the lever from position D to position DS.When I start to increase speed, S1 to S2, S2 to S3,.... is changed, etc.
It does not depend, Sport button is pressed or not.

Here you can buy a shiftbox (second hand)- very cheap:
