Nov 24, 2016 BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum E90 / E92 / E93 3-series Technical Forums BMW Coding Updating all modules with WINKFP Thread Tools: Search this Thread. WinKFP is a factory-generated software for programming or flashing most of the current BMW models. It is mainly used to update the modules of a BMW vehicle. It also offers functions for diagnostic, checking aif, and many more! Here are the steps on how to update or program a module using WinKFP.

  1. WinKFP is the factory software for flashing most BMWs (at least the ones we can support). We plan to have our own flashing software available soon, but WinKFP is actually very safe, fast and effective. Bimmerlabs can generate customized tunes in BMW's proprietary format. When using customized files, it is required to use WinKFP's 'Expert Mode.
  2. – Working BMW engineering tool– WINKFP (Built in Rheingold ISTA-D ISTA-P) – load the correct data files which is obtained from ISTA-P or commonly found online as DATEN packs – you need the E46 stuff (if I recall correctly the last lot of the DME updates were back in 200. – Now hook your car up to a battery tender!!!!!!!

Here is the tutorial of set up WinKFP& importing SP-daen files and programming E46 ECU using WinKFP software.

Tools needed:

BWM ICOM ISTA-D/P Rheingold engineering software WinKFP

BWM ICOM A2+B+C emulator or cheap BMW INPA K+DCAN cable

Step 1: Set up Winkfp and import Sp-Daten files

1) Download SP-Daten to your PC in order to update WinKFP databse with the daten files.

Here is the free SP-daten V50.2 free download resources. Make sure download all files.

2) You will notice the files you downloaded earlier have a ‘.rar’ extension; we need a program called WinRar to extract the daten files from the .rar archives. Bellow is a link to a trial version of WinRar:

3) Then extract the archives

4) Update SP-daten. Usually we use BMW Coding Tool to update the SP-daten. Here is one free download. BMW Coding Tool V2.50 free download:

5) Select “Select SP-source” and choose the Sp-Daten folder

6) Now click on “Update WinKFP” button and wait until update completed.

Update procedure is done. Now open SP-daten and start programming.

Here is a great collection about WinKFP for BMW ICOM A2. With this post, you can find the solutions for all kinds of WinKFP error, including Error 209, Error 211, Error 106, Error 806.

Error 209: UIF can not be read

Im trying to update my e46 updated my sp daten to v41
after clicking zb prog update in winkfp
i get Error 209: UIF can not be read

Solution:
The problem is the IFH-0018 error. Check EDIABAS.ini and ensure that the “interface=****” is appropriately configured for the interface type you are using. You also need to ensure that the DATEN files you are using are compatible with the version of EDIABAS you are running.

. Error 806: error on deleting assembly line data

Inpa

I’ve got the cable from www.worldobd2.com like instructed by a few members in the DIY thread and installed INPA, DIS, winKFP and downloaded both V41 and V46 Data files for e60. Followed all of the instructions to a T in terms of installing software from the discs provided by the seller I got the cable from. When I do the assembly line import though into winkfp – I get this error message ( error 806 “deleting assembly line data”) with either V41 or V46 data files. It gets to about 94% of completion and then it stops .

Solution:
Try finding a Windows XP computer and install the BMW programs on it. It seems that anything higher than XP can sometimes run into issues with programming.
