Chip tuning for Mercedes Viano 350 (3.5i) 258 hp ECU
Mercedes Viano (2010 - W639FL) 350 (3.5i) 258 hp — premium petrol engine of the passenger segment of the Mercedes-Benz Group AG (Mercedes-Benz, AMG, Maybach, Smart, EQ) group (Германия, 1926). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 258 to 280 hp (+22 hp, +9%) and torque from 340 to 370 Nm (+30 Nm). ECU — Bosch ME9.7. Flashing method: OBD or Bench depending on the unit's protection. A petrol engine built in 2010 — a Tricore platform without strong protection; OBD access works.
Karl Benz is credited as the inventor of the automobile with the 1886 Patent-Motorwagen. The Mercedes three-pointed star symbolises dominance on land, at sea and in the air. 4MATIC all-wheel drive is Mercedes' signature system, fitted to most models. Mid-generation petrol models use standard OBD flash. The Mercedes petrol range spans compacts, premium saloons, SUVs, roadsters and AMG flagships. Mercedes encryption is among the toughest in the industry, especially on modern models.
The AMG community is active in Germany, but the protection is the toughest in the industry, so Stage 1 on AMG usually requires Bench. Stage 1 on Mercedes often requires refreshing the adaptations after the flash. Mercedes is one of the most protected brands in the chip tuning industry in terms of encryption. On modern high-output Mercedes, Bench reading is often required because of the encryption. 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.
