noob question but what is the relevance of 3 years with these restrictions? Are these the restrictions that prevent FSD in UK or something?I have a MCU2 2020 M3P and as it’s coming up to 3 years old I’m interested in unlocking the UNECE restrictions on the car, since the likelihood of me realising any benefit from having purchased FSD any time soon is negligible. I’m sick of Summon and everything else being so crippled.
As I understand it most if not all of the restrictions are controlled by a flag - “ece_vehicle”, which on European cars is set to true.
I’m waiting to get a configuration output from a car that is doing advanced ADAS testing in the UK, that has this flag disabled (and possibly others).
Would I be right in assuming to change this flag I’d need to root the car? Does this have to be done with the car physically there, i.e. do I need to try and find someone in the UK that can do it?
Lastly, is it likely I would lose the remaining year of my warranty doing this?
Also, does this flag also apply to the supercharging capabilities? Is it possible to root the car and get supercharging back? If so, who are the ppl doing this in the UK. I have a M3P 2020 MCU2. Curious how risky this is…or whether I should just accept I’ll never have SC access again.
