I mean it went through the whole process but after clicking "close", in the window that pops at the end where t tells you everything went ok and you can save the report, it told me there was an error, in red fonts. Should have saved it, I guess so I can paste it here

As for shadow codes, there are many talking about them even on these and e90post forums. It's an error that showed up then got fixed by itself so to say, but it remains stores somwhere for the dealer to see it (in the good way, so they can see there was a glitch and might need further investigating).

Also, about what you just explained, about the dealer updating the ECU, how will I know that? That long number of the saved ncd file going to be different than the ECU's, right?

Thanks!
Yes, you will know because after the dealer update, the ECU CAFD file name will be newer.
