Magic Motorsport’s Flex version 6.24.0.0 introduces groundbreaking solutions for bench programming of Bosch MEDC17 2021 ECUs, specifically targeting those equipped with anti-tuning systems. This update significantly expands Flex’s capabilities, enabling tuners to modify a wider range of vehicles.
This latest release adds support for several crucial Med17 Ecu variants, including:
- ME17.2.42 (2021)
- MED17.9.9 (2021)
- MED17.8.32 (2021)
- MED17.1.27 (2021)
- MED17.9.3 (2021)
Flex 6.24.0.0 allows for complete read and write access to both Flash and EEPROM memories within these MED17 ECUs using bench mode. This eliminates the need for risky patching or opening the ECU, ensuring a safer and more reliable tuning process. Furthermore, this update streamlines the unlocking process for ME17.3.0 (2021), EDC17C69 (2021), and MEVD17.2.G (2021) ECUs. Unlocking these ECUs is now possible directly within the Flex software, eliminating the need for Helpdesk assistance.
This enhanced functionality extends to a range of popular vehicles, including:
- BMW S1000RR 2022
- VW Nivus 2022
- Honda Civic FL5 Type-R 2022
- VW T-Cross 2022
The new bench protocol for MED17 ECUs is available for the following Flex software packages:
- Bench:
- FLS0.1M – SW Flex ECU (car, van, bike) OBD + Bench Master
- FLS0.1S – SW Flex ECU (car, van, bike) OBD + Bench Slave
- FLS0.5M – Flex Full SW Package Master
- FLS0.5S – Flex Full SW Package Slave
- FLS0.10M – SW Flex Bench/Boot Infineon TC17xx / TC2xx Master
- FLS0.10S – SW Flex Bench/Boot Infineon TC17xx / TC2xx Slave
These packages provide comprehensive support for various bench programming tasks, including checksum calculation, reading, writing, cloning, and restoring ECU data.
Newly added bench protocols specifically address the following:
- BMW Motorrad Bosch ME17.2.42 TC1793
- Jaguar/Land Rover Bosch MED17.9.9 TC1793S
- Jaguar/Land Rover Bosch MED17.8.32 TC1793
- VAG Bosch MED17.1.27 TC1793S
- Honda Bosch MED17.9.3 TC1793
These protocols enable comprehensive read/write capabilities for internal flash and EEPROM, along with checksum correction, cloning, and restoring functionalities. Typical read times are approximately 3 minutes, while write times average around 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Beyond MED17 ECU support, Flex 6.24.0.0 also includes several bug fixes and software improvements. These address CRC support for various ECUs, optimize software opening times, and resolve errors encountered in writing to specific VAG models. Additionally, improvements to password control procedures for certain Ford vehicles in OBD mode enhance the overall user experience. This update reinforces Flex’s position as a leading solution for professional ECU tuning and reinforces Magic Motorsport’s commitment to continuous improvement and innovation in the automotive tuning industry.
