I don't get CEL anymore for few months now but always have bimmercode ready just in case. the error is stored in the memory but as I mentioned above it doesn't come up anymore and its a win in my book. I have drove about 2k miles since and no issues as well. As far as zip ties goes, no real update here, I believe since my last updated I ended up putting motor arms back in place and used medium size zip ties. at the end its a trial and error game, it seems to have worked for me for now. good luck with urs!

I been trying for a few days now on different fill positions but I haven't get the right one yet. The picture you send is actually the right fill you have it working right now or some from when you were trying? It's damn sensitive this thing. I may have to put back flaps and try to mark where is the close point exactly. The open position seems to be set depending on the close position set. Cuz I have fill way past the close position and it stop always before unless I move the close position more or less fill.

Update. I was able to do mine finally. So far so good.
All this time I was playing with filling the spot with different materials but I could never get the exctact point of the stop when closing /opening. So instead of me deciding where the stop points were, I let the system do it for me. Boom first try susecfull. lol I just filled the circle 80% of weld putty, put back the system and run it. The platic that hold the shutter has a little tab that act as stop, so it put the putty where it needed to be and hardened in minutes. So you need to work fast or get something that allow you to work more but does not move when working. I will create a diy if needed

Sometimes flaps can be coded out. If you have enet cable i can try code them out remotely.

I started to get CEL few days ago after not seeing it for awhile (I can't say I never seen it but maybe once in a couple of months which was fine) this time around I started getting it again and it would come back next start.
Sure enough my zip ties broke quick fix and new ones in place, original set lasted me 6 months (medium size zip ties) just FYI p.s. after not seeing CEL for a while I stopped checking that my code reader properly connected as well I stopped checking zip ties, so when I saw the CEL again it took me few days to check the zip ties again

I will try this. I'm not excited bc I'm imagining that the flaps will be too easily visible. Would you mind sharing some pics?

I don't have any pics, it was my buddy's car, but overall it looked pretty clean. We just left the most outter slates so it wasn't too obvious.

For the customized shutter, if you run into your bud again, please take some pics! I already posted a used shutter from ebay to experiment with. |

Did the coding solution stick or did the error codes come back? I think the dme software version may also affect the success in coding out the error, with the recent update preventing coding out the issue. That's my assumption right be anyways. |
