For the factory 197 hp / 400 Nm version, the listed increases correspond to approximately 15.2% more power and 15.0% more torque. These percentages are calculated from this entry and help compare different catalogue configurations.

These numbers help compare factory and tuned specifications. They do not establish that your particular vehicle has been dyno tested: the actual result is checked separately.

Tasks to agree before work

For BMW 525d E60, the form offers Stage 1 / Stage 2 and additional items for the diesel engine: VMax speed limiter adjustment, selected DTC deactivation, DPF deactivation, EGR deactivation, VSA swirl flap deactivation, AdBlue / SCR deactivation.

The final selection depends on the actual equipment and ECU version. A selection in the form is a request for confirmation, not a guarantee that every function is supported or required.

For the E60 generation, the software read/write method is agreed after ECU identification. The model badge alone does not identify the required interface or connection procedure.

Start an order for BMW 525d E60 by confirming the VIN and ECU identifiers. The programme, additional options, connection method and final price can then be agreed.
