This engine ships with different ECU variants: Bosch MED17.7.1, Bosch MED17.7.3, Siemens/Continental VGS4-NAG2, Siemens/Continental VGSx-NAG2. The flashing method is determined by the specific unit: OBD, Bench or Boot mode. In the CHIPOK database: 4 configurations · 4 ECU variants. The 2010 generation — mid-generation petrol ECUs (MEDC17/MEVD17/Simos PCR), OBD flash on production revisions.
Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. Maybach is Mercedes's ultra-luxury sub-brand. Mercedes-Benz is the world's oldest carmaker, founded in 1926 by the merger of Daimler-Motoren-Gesellschaft and Benz & Cie. Mercedes encryption is among the toughest in the industry, especially on modern models. Top AMG engines offer significant potential with a downpipe + intake. AMG is Mercedes's performance division (since 1967), acquired by Mercedes in 1999.
Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. The AMG community is active in Germany, but the protection is the toughest in the industry, so Stage 1 on AMG usually requires Bench. The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. AMG Performance Studio is Mercedes's in-house tuning studio for bespoke projects. Bench reading is a mandatory procedure for modern AMG models. Top AMG engines sit at the Mercedes power ceiling, and the gain is significant. AMG engines are a well-known base once hardware is added (downpipe + intake + intercooler).
