Adapter not found

Used multiple devices to try and connect . Followed all over there to instructions . Even the re-emailed one they provided. Took it to a shop . They even had a hard time with connecting . Still had to pay for there labor Had the vehicle on a battery tender. I eventually had to use a power tap obd2 doggle. That i use for VW/Audi. Then it came down to no internet connection . Laptop , tablet , and iPhone 11 Pro Max w/ 17.5.1 iOS still could not connect. Even took out my pedal commander and motiv reflex box to make sure there was no disturbance to the canbus system . Turned off Bluetooth connection for infotainment system. Tried everything . I can connect to bm3 no issue. I can connect my snap on triton scanner updated to 2026 (monthly $45 subscription) . Now they are threatening to lock my tcu because I requested a refund. Yea that’s against the law bucko. Show me the contract with my signature. Not trying to be a stifler by any means . But you can’t advertise hand held and none of my devices connect . Send me my refund .

The best bmw software

If you are wanting to tune your bmw transmission this is the place to go. I have had xHP on all of my automatic vehicles and it’s simply the best software option. xHPFlashtool is very easy to use and totally changes the feel of your car. I’ve never had an issue using it plus the customer service is top notch!

Great Customer Service & Product

I have “spoken” with Christoph Wallnöfer a couple of times now. He has always been great with helping me out.

Plus the product itself is great and it really helped my shifts on my 2020 M550i. They aren’t as “wonky” now and it now feels like the transmission is working with me rather than against me.

Awesome custom map service

I have a modified BMW F92 M8 putting down 850whp and had the xHP team create a custom map for my Stage 3 ZF transmission. And they did an amazing job with my TCU tune. After sending them details logs, dyno graphs and specific shift data they created the perfect maps for my car. I highly recommend their custom map service.

Highly recommend

Easy to use, and haven’t had an issue with the flash yet. I flashed stage 3 immediately. Totally changes the feeling of the car. You definitely have to experience it to understand how much it changes your driving experience. Quick and easy flashing via MHD wireless adapter.

Excellent upgrade

After putting several upgrades on my 535i M sport, I was very pleased. Then I heard about the xHP trans flash. Very informative website and easy to understand app. I installed stage 4 and it was simple. Took less than 5 minutes using the MHD-ENET. Now my car was already a hemi killer, now it’s a rocket ship. Going to the track next!

Amazing Customer Service

These guys are top notch. The product itself is incredible, but their customer service is even better, if that’s even possible. No matter what time you email, they get back to you promptly and courteously. They are super professional and deserve all good praise. Excellent job, you should be very proud.

Great app

It could use a little bit more tweaks but overall is a great app. I would suggest to have a setting set up for each stage instead of having just one for all three stages. Also having a Transmission adaption reset within the flash options would be very helpful too.

Made my ZF6 fee more modern

I’ve got an X1 35i with the ZF6; and although it was decent enough of a transmission- the cumulative nature of the improvements in the map pack is pretty significant; more consistent shifting speed and feel, starting from 1st is an improvement in my book, and a much improved manual mode. I’ve only had it on for a couple of days but I consider this a really rewarding mod.

XHP FTW!!!

I have been using XHP for almost a year now and I have gone through different stages with my F10 M5, boy does this makes such a difference on your driving experience. The car is FBO, and pairing bootmod3 with XHP has really proved to me why they work so well together. My shifts have been extremely crisp and I know my clutch wear it has been limited things to playing with the settings on XHP.

Complete Transformation, Ease of Use

Regardless of chosen stage, an xHP tune on the ZF8 will drastically change the feel of the car in both comfort and all sport modes.

I find it necessary to still go through the individual settings and select the desired ones, and also customize any settings that can be changed to your liking (of which there are a lot). Afterwards, many aspects of your car will be closer to those of your “dream” vehicle.

I also appreciate the ability to go through xHPFlashtool and see what stage and settings were most recently flashed, even when not connected, which allows me to go over any changes I want to make prior to heading to my vehicle.

Finally, flash times are relatively fast. The initial one was done within a minute, and subsequent ones that only involve customization/settings changes are done within 15-30 seconds.

It’s rare to find a vehicle app that functions just as well as the underlying vehicle software. This is a prime example of that rare occurrence.

xHP is the Missing Link

Installed xHP on my 2016 BMW 328i xDrive (N26) paired with a Bootmod3 Stage 2 E30 tune, and it completely transformed how the car drives. Faster, firmer shifts, better gear selection, and much improved responsiveness.

The transmission finally feels like it can handle the added power properly. Installation was straightforward, and the difference was immediately noticeable.

xHP is essential once the engine is tuned. One of the best value upgrades you can make.

Top-notch

Multi-BMW owner here with both MHD and BM3 installed. You must know that xHp is a game-changer that provides exponentially more performance, and more importantly, fun out of your vehicle. Other offerings fall significantly short. On top of that, their customer service is outstanding—fast, effective, and customer-centric—yielding a result that the customer will be overly satisfied with. Highly recommended! Their product is fire! Their customer service is excellent…what are you waiting for?

2021 M550i(G30)

xHP Flashtool is by far the best and only TCU flash known to me. I currently own a 2021 M550i and previously owned a 2020 M340i. I flashed the ECU on both vehicles which really woke the cars up, however, once I flashed the TCU with xHP Flashtool, it completely transformed the cars. The ease of use of xHPFlashtool is fantastic. All instructions needed to install the flash on your BMW are detailed within xHPFlashtool . If you are looking to take your driving experience to the next level, xHP Flashtool is the TCU software update your BMW needs.

XHP ROCKS!!!

I ofcourse was a little scriptural about if I’d even feel the difference???
=DIFFERENCE FELT!
It’s absolutely great. It’s not DCT fast but it’s definitely faster than SMG, & it’s faster than any other auto (excluding BRAND NEW cars) ALSO you can go into & fine tune stuff most people wouldn’t even know what they were playing with- 100% would buy, would buy twice, would recommend to anyone with an auto bmw- This makes my daily driver FUN when I feel like driving FUN. GREAT WORK XHP

Amazing Customer Service

As you may know, you have a one-time transfer fee from one vehicle to another. I contacted customer support, and they helped me along the whole way. Then we realized that I couldn’t transfer my license since my new car wasn’t the same generation. My customer support agent, Semin, went out of his way and got me a 50 percent off coupon. This is something he did NOT have to do, but he did it anyways. It really shows a lot about a company. Thank you again, Semin!

2022 BMW M440i xDrive GC (G26)

This is by far the best application for the best results and options available for TCUs! Surprisingly for new/Gen-2 G-Series BMWs, smooth and strong shift points all the options available for customizing the MAPs and allowing for general options to be modified and or changed like coasting, auto start/stop, gauge cluster changes and many more! The only gripe is cost for the license on the new G-series is costly over the E & F Series but again all good things come at a cost. So I still say 100% worth the cost if you’re looking for transmission upgrades.

XHP Transmission MAP

I’ve been driving my F85 without the XHP Flashtool for a while, and while the transmission shifts and blips were decent, the difference after flashing it with XHP was incredible. The blips became noticeably louder, and the shifting speed is insanely fast—truly a game-changer.

Recently, I sold my F85 and bought another one. I was pleasantly surprised at how smooth the license transfer process was. After sending a request via email, the transfer was completed in just about 5 minutes. The service was outstanding. Highly impressed with both the product and the support team!

Completely improved my F85/X5 M drivelogic

Been such a fun and cool experience improving my cars drivelogic and shift points. My car owns Stage II engine mapping and 8HP75Z. Great platform. However, I don’t care to drag the car, or care about 0-60 times. More about driveline cohesion and drivability. I live in urban and city environment with great canyons around. Having a high Vmax is unneeded and useless. Also my car own really good low end torque. Using the shift map editor, and other package settings has been so cool to tailor my car to my driving needs and its innate driving characteristics. xHP deserve props for building such a great usable software platform. Thanks xHP

F82 M4 Stage 3!!

Amazing app! Very user friendly & easy to use! The customer support team is even better!! Martin Paulik was super helpful with an issue I was having after an update! He got a custom map sent over to me with a fix until the new update comes out! Super fast and works great!! Super happy with the OTS tunes and adjustable settings!!

xHP is the only tool that focuses fully on getting the best from your Auto-Transmission and is the worldwide leading solution for the best vehicles from Bavaria! xHP put's the power to fully customize your automatic transmission at your hands.

Smooth and comfy in the Luxury applications, the same transmission can be tweaked to deliver snap-on take-off behavior, surprisingly fast shift times and even race-style throttle blips on downshifts.
