Does anyone have a solution for Ista+ Programming Expert Mode?

I use Ista 4.11.32.





Best Regards Fabian

No expert mode available yet for ISTA+.

Since expert mode is not implemented in ISTA+, how are you flashing cars with retrofitted ECU?
In my case I have a retrofited 6WB Kombi, and ISTA wants to force me to change it

Is this the right time to learn how to flash instead of ony code with ESYS?

Yes it is the perfect time.

This will be an issue in futere, expert mode can get you out of unpleasant work. For example if you update i update a whole g11 with ista p and if you update kafas you lose fsc codes, so if i deselected kafas, fsc stayed unharmed. But you can do that now with ista+

One more important remark is that esys wont let you update a module that is allready updated, but ista let you do it, so after 7/11 psdzdate you are stuck with this issue too...

If you manipulate the tal and svt you can flash the same ecu over and over .

What about a car that does not have retrofitted modules ? Is ISTA+ ok to flash the car with ? In earlier versions there were some problems, I remember last time i flashed with ISTA i had a NBT that froze in flashing mode (bluescreen) and had to be updated with esys. Is now ISTA+ safe to update a car with factory equipment ? Are there any known bugs ?

ISTA+ was always more or less safe. The thing you mentioned with NBT was 99.9% due to your firewall. When you use standalone ISTA+ you need to configure or disable firewall yourself.

[derutatu]

I'm sure my firewall was disabled. Anyway, that was some time ago. I did many ISTA/P updates after and never had any problem. So, if car is factory fitted, I can update with ISTA+ and have a piece of mind, and if it has retrofitted parts, use e-sys (untill a solution is found with ISTA+ expert mode), correct ?

the difference between beemerboys expert mode and ista plus

is his loader allows for hiding of modules , ista plus does not he or someone may be working on an alternate loader to hide retrofitted modules but as it so far look into ESYS for that only option I can think of right now last istap that had a lot a F ,G or I cars was 3.64.2 as 3.65.0 only had like 2 model forget exactly which ones you have to double or make link dos command to point to istaplus PSdZ folder

Best to use a router for programming HUH etc through ista
