Was already thinking MHD, this just helps. I love seeing them solve problems, and stay on top of the latest stuff.

Not super* cheap but the complications are being reduced still
If it required the use the MHD maps/tuning it would definitely sway me to purchase their products. If it worked to bench unlock and allow other tuning platforms, I would purchase it just to have for that sole purpose.
@@CrowSaysMoo Pretty sure the MHD tuner does advertise that you can use JB4 and custom tunes already as well The Flasher License unlocks the ability to flash with MHD (MHD OTS maps, JB4 backend maps and custom maps)
It definitely would do that for me I have an S58 though so I wish that I could get some use out of this. Really sucks to have to be without your car for a month to get the DME unlocked.
I have a 2018 but had the mppsk fitted at bmw in 2022. I’m assuming my dme will be locked but won’t require a femto, so this should work for me when released?
My question would be now that it's a MHD product, does it have to be a MHD tune with the MHD unlocking license or can I use BM3, Dinan, ect... OTS tunes?
@@kern417 Hey Kern, do you have an answer to this now? I need a bench unlock and my friend has the mhd unlocker but I'm trying to get tuned on bm3. Is the mhd unlocker vin specific so I'd need to buy an mhd license to bench unlock?
Love how you mentioned Minnesota lmao. I live in north Dakota and its worse. Think we only have one certified BMW tech and he's hour away. 1 reason I haven't modded my 21 supra. Still waiting cause I'm post june.
Not sure if anyone replied to you already but once you bench unlock you can flash with obd after as many times as you want. However if you update your car's firmware via the infotainment then the ECU will be locked again and you will have to unlock it again

@@kern417 I heard what you said in the video but on mhd website under Q and A it says that it does not work for s55 engines. So which one is it? Q - Can it be used locked N55/S55 DMEs? A - No, It can only be used on B58, S58 and S63 (F90) Produced before 06.2020

Huh? Bro this guy clearly didn’t do even a single google search. The first link that pops up is the product + kern made a video using it to unlock his 340. People are weird :/

Ah damn, you're right I did get excited at first thinking this would unlock 2020+ DMEs
*hopefully* when they do find a solution, this tool can accomplish the same task. then these will sell like crazy
Ahh damn is right😢

This is what I’ve been waiting for! Hopefully its pricing comes in around the same as it would be to send the DME off
Or less !
Just unlocked my DME following your instructions. Thanks!!
Perfect timing, just had my DME re-locked for emissions testing 😅
pain. hopefully it's fully released soon

I got happy for no reason. Thought it was for the newer DMEs
if you see people referring to "bench unlock," it's not associated with new DMEs that need a Femto Unlock. It's different.
@@kern417 I know, I wish the new DMEs can be unlocked from home. Time to cough up $1500
Same
I’m probably just gonna keep waiting it out unfortunately
@@kevin-jm3qbthey can look up mission performance bmw
Holy shite. I'm so ready for this. I really hope this is available for mini cooper as well.
Always with the latest info. Keep up the good content 👌
🙏🏾
I haven't checked to see if mine is locked but finding a bench unlock was something I was worried about and this would help that
Agree, it’s a step in the right direction
Happy for this
Nooo way this is huge!
So, what do you guys think? Would this sway you to go with MHD?

Been a few weeks. Any word on a release?
No freakin way I see this the DAY after getting my gen 1 DME bench unlocked lol
lol it always happens like that. but this isn't dropping yet so at least you can get tuned sooner
Will this work with b46s?
Thanks for the vid!
Can they do 2021+ yet?
When does this actually come out? It's been very soon for months.
honestly not sure. i've tried it myself and have a video ready for when it does release. just waiting.
If I use this on my car can I still use bm3 tune
Do I have to disconnect the negative of battery ? And will the MHD bench unlock work after I disconnect the battery. ?
Will this work for my 2020 330i? Prod. Date 2019-12-06
I got a 2023 m4 Competition XDrive, does this work for my car?
I have a 2018 but had the mppsk fitted at bmw in 2022. I’m assuming my dme will be locked but won’t require a femto, so this should work for me when released?
Yes
I have a 2020 m340i build date 03/2020 so would this work for me. ?
yes
Does this work for the G82?
Depends on the the price. Have you heard any info on a release date and price?
Should be in the next month or so

Where can I get this
so, one question, when you bench unlock, you can flash with obd after? or you need to bench unlock it EVERYTIME y ou wanna flash a new map into it ?
Not sure if anyone replied to you already but once you bench unlock you can flash with obd after as many times as you want. However if you update your car's firmware via the infotainment then the ECU will be locked again and you will have to unlock it again
No fucking way let’s fucking go

Femto should sell the unlock method before the encryption is broken and they no longer make money
That's not really a risk right now
No risk to femto, they have the key to an encrytpion that is impossible to break.

Its crazy that they're the only ones that are still able to unlock after 3 years. Unless no one else is trying?
