Has anybody had any experience of abrieb chiptuning boxes from germany they are selling on ebay for ?55. they are a plug in tuning box and promice power and torque gains,are they any good because all other chip upgrades i have seen are around ?300.
also i have a E 61 and the rear washer only comes out over the left hand side any solutions.
my eyebrow lights do not come on . i have read about the software glitch. do dealers charge to do a software update to switch the lights back on.
answers to these queries would be most welcome.
i am new to this site and drive a 525DSE auto
thankyou

I have no personal experience from that company and haven't seen anyone else reviewing it either so I'm not able to pass a judgment on function/quality. However I would personally stay away from something that costs like 10-20% of the more well-known stuff. When buying a fairly expensive car I wouldn't risk my engine to save a few hundred in the short term, if I didn't get a VERY solid warranty and seller had a physical location nearby so I knew where to go and get support if needed.

Not 100% sure on how the washer nozzles look but if they are adjustable you should simply be able to change the direction by inserting a needle and turn it to a better position. If there are 2 nozzles maybe one is plugged by dirt i.e. use needle to remove dirt.

For the software they should cut you some slack since it's a quality issue but if you're out of warranty I guess it's up to the dealer and/or your negotiation skills to decide

Hi there
I have the Abrieb tuning device. Please try Abrieb on the search engine on the top right hand corner. There have been several threads.
So far I think it's great. Had it now for more than half a year and wouldn't want to drive without it
