Is there a bmw dme ews delete (ms41/42/43/45, mss50-70) shop in Los Angeles I should use instead?
Most Los Angeles shops don't keep the bench equipment for bmw dme ews delete (ms41/42/43/45, mss50-70) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country west — about 2-3 days each way.
Does California vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
California requires a biennial Smog Check emissions inspection in most counties through the BAR program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all California and federal requirements.
Will my car pass smog after EWS delete?
EWS delete does not change emissions code or O2 monitoring. Smog readiness behavior is identical to a stock DME.
What about CAS-equipped BMWs?
2006+ BMWs use CAS instead of EWS — different system. See our BMW CAS Key Programming service for those. What we DO handle here is the DME side of those cars: MSV70, MSV80/MSV81 and MSD80/MSD81 units off N52, N53 and N54 engines (E90/E92 335i, E60 535i, E82 135i, E70, E71, Z4 E89) get the immobilizer link disabled on the bench, so the DME runs without the CAS handshake. Send the DME part number and VIN first — these units are verified individually.
