Myself and a 3 other Bimmerfest members are working on a DIY Flashing Guide for this; however, it is incredibly risky. And while we have successfully flashed several modules, just last week we bricked a Head Unit.

So, until I am convinced the process is 100% documented and accurate, and all risk has been minimized, the DIY Flashing Guide will not be published.
Wow...you guys are, as usual, expanding the frontiers of what's possible with coding. The whole community is grateful, even if you never publish the guide.

I just gotta ask: what happened with the bricked head unit? Was it possible to unbrick it by loading the original firmware?
