Request for help in selecting ZB WinKFP - Cowboy - 16-10-2022

Hi guys,

I have an e81 bench and would like to use WinKFP to update MSD81.2. The problem is I can't do this in Comfort mode. The ZB number as shown in INPA is not included in WinKFP. Theoretically, I know how to find the correct number for this VIN, but to be sure, I am asking for support. I think that someone previously combined something with this ecu and uploaded a very old ZB. I just wonder for what purpose? Maybe the power reduction was the reason for this?
Full VIN:
WBAUA71000VE63488
will ZB 8687960 be correct?
Thank you in advance for your help and best regards

MSD81.2 is from an E60
So you can flash it with E60 data and winkfp should find it automatically.
New ZB 8688062

In fact, the ZB 7621396 is taken from the E60. I just wonder why someone programmed this ecu with the date from E60. This does not match the production code UA71 assigned to the VIN. I bought this MSD as a kit with a key and CAS (for educational purposes). It cost ridiculous money. Now I think I know why.
Now I am wondering which ZB should best fit the production code.

This is on the right track, but I suggest you also account for the factory/production i-level in the search. Yours suggests it's for the 2007.

8687960 is for the power reduction version (option 843), so I don't think you want that

This is just completely wrong. WinKFP does not select the correct one for the car.

I have reviewed all ZB numbers that match the production code of UA71, they all have a power limit.

Your ZUSB (7621396) is known (folder "MSD812") and the actual ZUSB is 8688062.


RE: Request for help in selecting ZB WinKFP - Cowboy - 18-10-2022

As I wrote earlier, the ZB which is now saved in the ecu (7621396) does not match the production code UA71. Perhaps someone has uploaded a different flash before - I do not know. In my opinion, it makes no sense to upload 8688062 because it will still not match the production code.

if there is any doubt, then use ISTA/p to calculate correct ZUSB first. and then use WINKFP to program it, or just follow up with ISTA/p to do the programming.


RE: Request for help in selecting ZB WinKFP - Cowboy - 19-10-2022

ISTA can only be useful if everything is correct (current ZB and production code). In my case it says that the wrong DME / DDE is mounted and it is completely logical.
