This engine ships with different ECU variants: Bosch MED17.7.1, Bosch MED17.7.3, Siemens/Continental VGS4-NAG2. The flashing method is determined by the specific unit: OBD, Bench or Boot mode. In the CHIPOK database: 3 configurations · 3 ECU variants.
4MATIC all-wheel drive is Mercedes' signature system, fitted to most models. The Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Daimler AG until 2022) comprises Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart and the EQ line. AMG is the performance division of Mercedes (since 1967), building engines on the 'one man, one engine' principle in Affalterbach. AMG E-Performance is a range of hybrid AMG models with an F1-derived electric system. The F1 heritage in AMG hybrid powertrains (Project ONE) comes with a locked electronic architecture. Full-EV Mercedes keep the inverter and BMS locked, so traditional chip tuning does not apply.
Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. The Mercedes community in Europe has a large pool of available Stage files for the standard models. On Mercedes up to the recent generation, Stage 1 OBD flash is available. The Mercedes premium segment is a high-output platform with Stage 2 potential. High-output Mercedes engines are premium-class with solid headroom for Stage 1. On modern high-output Mercedes, Bench reading is often required because of the encryption.
