EcuTek + Mission Tuning M-Link Unlock?

[Joel]

Hi all, trying to see if there's anyone here that may have some experience with the Mission Tuning M-Link tool here: https://missiontuning.com/m-link-6/m-link.html

I'm going to be on the path to starting with an ecutek tune soon (2020), and I will need to do a quick bench unlock to get the DME ready. This caught my eye since it can be done at home with the benefit of backup and recovery, plus unlimited unlocks if you ever got updated and relocked. Seems like a decent tool, but I only saw a couple mentions of it on this forum. Looked like a couple users had success with it but I didn't see if there was anyone who had success with it and did ecutek. I'm sure it's not that different between the different tuning platforms like BM3, but I'm unfamiliar with the chances of any tuning platform and/or DME being picky about its bench unlocks.

Thanks!

depending on your ROM ID, Ecutek requires a very specific unlock done through BFlash and Ecutek. So depending on the ROM ID you have, that will not be a compatible unlock method for Ecutek.

That will however work with MHD+ as well as BM3 straightaway.

Understood, that makes sense. I was trying to avoid having to ship it out but it sounds like that might be necessary.

Plugged into MHD and BM3 and these were the outputs:

As far as I know, there shouldn't be any open recalls for this car so it's potentially got at least whatever the most recent dealer update was.
