Yes,

Yes,

Are you sure?? The automatic transmission doesn't break?? The automatic transmission doesn't use a ECU or DME??

Doesn't exist relation between one or another ECU or DME??

Thanks for your answer!! ;)

I sell them even, very popular on the German 7-forum among M30B35 drivers.
Which MOTRONIC do you have? -150 or -178/179.
Very important, as the engine will not start when you install the wrong chip.

On the German 7-Forum they have even made an instruction how to install it under Tips and Tricks

click on Chip Umbau on the left.

Only the MOTRONIC chip has to be replaced, not the tranny chip.

Nothing will break, you will not get suddenly a racing car with such a chip.
This chip gives as per the statement on the German 7-forum:

up to 10% more HP max
up to 10% more Nm
more push in lower RPM range
less fuel consumption (some speak of less 2 liters/100 km compared to original chip), of course, it always depends on your driving style.
no different fuel is required, same as before

RPM in idle will be a bit lower it is reported.

If you are interested, send me a PM. Delivery from Japan by airmail.

i have the EAT chip in my auto 535 and have no problems and enjoy better performance the only thing you should be careful of is a chip that raises the rev limit as this may cause problems for the auto

what's up?? If the chip raises the rev limit??

The transmission isn't prepare for the high revolutions??

He meant the engine will get problems with higher revs and 200k miles at age of >15.

Where can I buy the chip from? I have an auto 525i and looking to buy the chip, I have found it on the mye34.net? or mye34.com? website a week ago but I can't find that site again, it was listed for $250.

mate, an auto 535i with a different chip works fine. don't worry about anything else about rev limits, your auto gearbox shifts well before the rev limit is reached.

I have a similar setup with no associated downfalls.
