Title: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Nosbeui on July 30, 2010, 08:33:45 AM So you want to launch like the cool Subaru/Evo kids? As it turns out we can! And it's pretty easy. It works like this.. ME7 has a bulit in raised rev limit function which is unused by default. We set it up so the standard rev limit (NMAX) becomes the launch rpm and the raised limit becomes the normal limiter. It's controlled by VNMX so that as long as the car is below 1.25 km/h the launch control limit is used. Above 1.25 km/h the raised limit aka the new normal limit is used.
Here are the maps I modify including their M-Box addresses CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung Set to 1 VNMX (1157E) The vehicle speed for activating the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this as low at it goes (1.25 km/h) so the launch control shuts off as soon as you start moving off the line. DNMAXH (16304) This is the RPM above rev limit when the fuel cut comes on. Tweaking this helps make more boost on the limiter. I use 50 RPM (Keep in mind the maximum RPM limit is NMAXOG + DNMAXH) ITNMXH (16308) Dwell time under lower limit before activating the upper limit. We set this to 0 seconds NMAX (1630A) Ends up being the launch RPM. I've found 4500 RPM works well. NMAXOG (16312) This is the raised RPM limit which becomes the standard limit. Mine is set at 7100 RPM TMOTNMX (16316) Coolant temp for activating raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at -48 so that it can activate at any coolant temp. TNMXH (1631A) This is the time duration of the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at it's maximum value of 655.3500 seconds. I haven't had a problem yet with this and have been testing for months. And here are the results! http://vimeo.com/14266421 (http://vimeo.com/14266421) Eventually the plan might be to make this into a self installing patch file like the Subaru guys use. I just uploaded a Stock M-box with this code http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=152.0 (http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=152.0) Additional IMPORTANT Info! Be aware that when using this method of launch control there is a time limit of 10.9 minutes for driving above the launch RPM. Therefore I suggest you set this appropriately high, somewhere above your normal cruising range. After 10.9 minutes the throttle shuts off until the RPM falls below the launch RPM... This is a potentially hazardous condition so please be aware and implement this code at your own risk! Additional additional info Thanks to k0mpresd I've learned certain ECU's need the map CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung (Codeword for RPM limiter) changed from 0 to 1 -Brandon EDIT: Correction the map is DNMAXH not DNMAX Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: elRey on July 31, 2010, 09:44:12 PM Great info. Can't wait to try this out.
On a similar, but different subject.... is there a way to cure/reduce rev hang when switching gears? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: NOTORIOUS VR on August 02, 2010, 11:13:12 AM wow... amazing work man!

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: k0mpresd on August 07, 2010, 11:13:04 AM i set the limiter to 2500 (10000 in decimal) and the car still revs as freely as normal. no 2500 limiter. me = ??? lol.
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: k0mpresd on August 07, 2010, 05:48:28 PM ok. so this does not work for me. the only way i get a 2500 limiter is if i set all 3 limiters to 2500. its either all or nothing. i tried every combination i could think of using a lower and higher limiter.

It doesn't "throttle" for you; it's simply a rev limiter that's "on" when the vehicle speed is below 1.some mph. I would not affect you daily driving whatsoever unless you're a 6K clutch dumper loose canon when you're on your way to work ;) Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Nosbeui on August 19, 2010, 06:54:18 AM Original vid is gone :( New link up!In this case the launch control is always active.

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Tony@NefMoto on August 29, 2010, 10:05:52 PM You need to update checksums after any change to the flash memory.
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: k0mpresd on August 30, 2010, 08:40:49 AM You need to update checksums after any change to the flash memory. just for the sake of asking, what if winols says the data to be changed is outside of the protected memory area and is not covered by a chksum? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Tony@NefMoto on August 30, 2010, 11:40:49 AM It's possible that a block of data in the flash memory is not covered by one of the three different types of checksums. But if you don't update a checksum when you need to, your car won't start. Worst case your car will start a few times, and then will decide to not start at some later date. One of the types of checksums is only checked every few starts.

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: kelesha on September 04, 2010, 12:05:00 PM When we talk about revlimiters in ME7 most interesting part is how to made "normal" revlimiter like on old VAG cable throttle cars, i.e fuel/ignition cut without throttle shut off, if we put DNMAXH to 0 its start some fuel cut off, but throttle still shut off and its almost useless, anyway i think about to disable torque model and see whats going on but still dont try that, may be soon when i have free time to play :)
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: hammersword on September 06, 2010, 07:05:11 AM when you disable torque model, set correct the throttle linearization 16x1 map, elsewhere you will idle at 2300 rpm
;) Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: RaraK on September 10, 2010, 12:41:58 PM hmm yes, setting the launch rpm is nice and all but i really think we need to find a way for the throttle to stay open, or at least keep bouncing the limiter rather than the PI controller for the throttle taking over and just holding the rpm.
could get a decent 2step at that point. i have been playing with this a bit, not letting fuel cut ever come on, but you need to keep the limiter bouncing with throttle being open for it to build some real boost. anyone have thoughts on where to go at this point? i know why it wont let me, but how to work around this and not really affect a lot of other protection in the ecu. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Jason on September 11, 2010, 11:33:21 PM My car seems to bounce the limiter just fine... I don't think the throttle is closing. This is with the limiter set to 4500. I haven't stood on it long enough to see how much boost it will build. To my knowledge you'll also need the ECU to intentionally randomly misfire on the exhaust stroke to build full boost.
Here is my Mbox with the parameters posted earlier at 4500: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhszz7OTtAE Pardon the color sanding mess. I haven't tried launching it yet as I haven't finished tuning it due to wideband issues. However I will say that given the fact I already twisted up a propshaft launching with no boost... I'm curious to know if it will help or hurt. The car was hooking up pretty good launching about 4k with no boost. Got some wheelspin this day because it was about 105 out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmE8VjffJUY If you listen close you can hear how loud my clutch is, lol.

Sorry for the long wait for a reply. It sounds like DNMAXH is set too high, keep it under 100 RPM. According to the Funktionsrahmen, the absolute maximum RPM is NMAXOG + DNMAXH. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Giannis on April 28, 2011, 09:19:30 AM I am so sorry to be offtopic, but can we use this stock 2stage rev limiter so that we have to different limiters for different coolant temps? For example because my wife takes the car often (and as it is well known women have no respect for cars) can i set a limiter of 3500rpm until the engine reaches it's normal working temp and after the limiter to be raised to 7000rpm as normal? Thank you.

Thank you. Good question, and yes the raised rev limit is flexible. Set NMAX to 3500. NMAXOG to 7000. TMOTNMX (Coolant temp for activating raised limiter) to somewhere around 80 (degrees C) also set the other maps for launch control. Let us know how it works Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Giannis on April 28, 2011, 02:05:27 PM Great news. It is working plus that temp tweek.

I understand that: (CWNMAXMD) is not required to be changed in the ME7.5 ECUs, I can't find it anyways in the .kp file either.. Thanks. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Vdub-dub on August 17, 2012, 01:09:37 PM could i just use NMAXGA rpm speed limit for each gear including gear 0 ??? would this still have the same affect?
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: ironital on August 31, 2012, 06:39:45 AM This means if i do that to my vw 2004 1.8t passat me 7.5 this will increase 1st gear speed onley no changes to others So you want to launch like the cool Subaru/Evo kids? As it turns out we can! And it's pretty easy. It works like this.. ME7 has a bulit in raised rev limit function which is unused by default. We set it up so the standard rev limit (NMAX) becomes the launch rpm and the raised limit becomes the normal limiter. It's controlled by VNMX so that as long as the car is below 1.25 km/h the launch control limit is used. Above 1.25 km/h the raised limit aka the new normal limit is used. Here are the maps I modify including their M-Box addresses CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung Set to 1 VNMX (1157E) The vehicle speed for activating the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this as low at it goes (1.25 km/h) so the launch control shuts off as soon as you start moving off the line. DNMAXH (16304) This is the RPM above rev limit when the fuel cut comes on. Tweaking this helps make more boost on the limiter. I use 50 RPM (Keep in mind the maximum RPM limit is NMAXOG + DNMAXH) ITNMXH (16308) Dwell time under lower limit before activating the upper limit. We set this to 0 seconds NMAX (1630A) Ends up being the launch RPM. I've found 4500 RPM works well. NMAXOG (16312) This is the raised RPM limit which becomes the standard limit. Mine is set at 7100 RPM TMOTNMX (16316) Coolant temp for activating raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at -48 so that it can activate at any coolant temp. TNMXH (1631A) This is the time duration of the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at it's maximum value of 655.3500 seconds. I haven't had a problem yet with this and have been testing for months. And here are the results! http://vimeo.com/14266421 (http://vimeo.com/14266421) Eventually the plan might be to make this into a self installing patch file like the Subaru guys use. I just uploaded a Stock M-box with this code http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=152.0 (http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=152.0) Additional IMPORTANT Info! Be aware that when using this method of launch control there is a time limit of 10.9 minutes for driving above the launch RPM. Therefore I suggest you set this appropriately high, somewhere above your normal cruising range. After 10.9 minutes the throttle shuts off until the RPM falls below the launch RPM... This is a potentially hazardous condition so please be aware and implement this code at your own risk! Additional additional info Thanks to k0mpresd I've learned certain ECU's need the map CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung (Codeword for RPM limiter) changed from 0 to 1 -Brandon EDIT: Correction the map is DNMAXH not DNMAX Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: scociu on September 19, 2012, 08:21:04 AM Is this possible on 7.3.1 ECU?

Atleast in the Funktionsrahmen for the ME7.3.1 (147 TS) all the fields needed are available.So most likely the V6 will have these too, its just a matter of locating them ;) As i do own an Alfa 156 GTA i would not be happy with 10.9 minutes of "> launchrpm". For Launch you would have to be around 4000-4500 to not excessivly wear the clutch. And as you know, the Alfa comes to live at about 4000rpm, so some trips will for sure max it out for me, as when pushing it i tend to stay over 4000rpm most of the time. ;) Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: melu on March 25, 2013, 03:48:44 PM Hello guys,

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: SixSeven on September 18, 2013, 12:33:06 PM I finally got around to enabling this feature on my ATW 1.8t and have a bit of information to share. I noticed a couple posts about not getting the limiter to bounce around your set launch RPM and ran into this issue myself. I believe the root cause of this is the PID controller for the DBW throttle doing its job too well. What I found was the ECU was able to control the RPM adequately employing only the throttle plate and never hit the fuel-cut unless DNMAXH was set quite low (on the order of 10 RPM). I think this is particularly true if you still have a heavy DMFW since the moment of inertia is quite high, thus slowing the rate of change of engine speed and reducing the need for the fuel cut. To get around this, I set DNMAXH to a reasonable value, I think it's around 30 or 40 RPM, and just blip the throttle a couple times when I'm nearing my launch RPM. The throttle blip is enough to "confuse" the throttle PID so that the fuel cut comes on. Using this method I've been able to get my boost needle to bounce around 0 psi which isn't much, but at least it's better than launching under vacuum. I hope this makes sense to all of you, if not I can try to clarify.
Cheers. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: krazydbiker on September 25, 2013, 04:28:29 PM hmm, i'm going to give this a shot, i'm having the same issue, controller doing its job and closing throttle plate, dang it bosch for being smart.
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: krazydbiker on October 07, 2013, 09:19:39 AM Soooo got it working... Used 30 for rpm and it broke that throttle pid some... That mixed with removing torque limit and modifying throttle opening works like a charm... Awd burnout

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: krazydbiker on November 07, 2013, 09:01:55 AM i think the maps i modified were KFMDBGRG, my car was limited, i removed that and it definitely seemed to help with the take off
the throttle modification was KFWDKSMX, my throttle was not opening 100% until after 4k..... it will not bypass the throttle pid or anything but setting rpm to 20 to and bumping throttle a few times gets it to pop, when i let out the clutch it just burned the tires, good enough for me on AWD here is a short clip of it in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osJlZC27EoQ i left traction control on which is why first gear stopped burning out :-\ forgot Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: SixSeven on November 19, 2013, 01:50:29 PM That looks very similar to the behavior I've ended up with.

Therefore I suggest you set this appropriately high, somewhere above your normal cruising range. After 10.9 minutes the throttle shuts off until the RPM falls below the launch RPM... This is a potentially hazardous condition so please be aware and implement this code at your own risk! Additional additional info Thanks to k0mpresd I've learned certain ECU's need the map CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung (Codeword for RPM limiter) changed from 0 to 1 -Brandon EDIT: Correction the map is DNMAXH not DNMAX Does anyone know what more to do for it to work on med9.1? Even with all these changes, nothing happens. Is it some kind of codeword? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: elerium on July 05, 2015, 01:23:50 AM Hi everything!
I have 1 question - i set NMAX to 4500, this max value of RPM be used only at launch? On a run RPM will be limited on this value? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: tjwasiak on July 05, 2015, 05:13:00 AM It depends how you set other limiters (temperature, speed and time) and how is raised limiter set.
If you set VNMX to lowest speed (not 0), TMOTNMX to minumum (-48*C), TNMXH to maximum (655,35s) and ITNMXH to 0 it should be using NMAXOG when driven and NMAX only when stationary. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: eibxmatic on July 05, 2015, 02:50:14 PM There is one thing I want to be sure about.
If Iam using the auto add script I have to assign the code space myself. Read somewhere that I just have to look for large "FF" areas. Is there anything else to consider finding empty space ?

You posted in wrong topic I suppose as this one is about poor people launch control (using NMAX/NMAXOG etc).If Iam using the auto add script I have to assign the code space myself.

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: giles92 on August 09, 2015, 05:48:46 AM Another person asked my same question so i thought id bump it. On the 551R XDF I only have NMAXOGGA not NMAXOG. I dont know if this is because 7.1.1 is different or something but im trying to understand. NMAXOGGA seems to be a rev limiter figure set originally for 6800. But i still cant get this working. It flies right by 4500 every time. I might try to adjust the DNMAXH to a lower number like 35 or something because i still have the stock flywheel on there. I cant be the only one to put Launch control on a 551R box. Someone help me out. ::)
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: SixSeven on August 16, 2015, 06:22:49 AM A question for SixSeven or anybody else that may know: is there a CWNMAXMD bit in the 018P ecu? I have transferred the 4B0906018P - 352750 mappack to the offsets for the 018AA ecu, but CWNMAXMD was not in the definitions so I could not set this. Big thanks :) If memory serves, I did not have to touch this bit on the 018P. As a matter of fact, I'm not sure I ever tracked it down either. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: TijnCU on October 28, 2015, 02:13:44 AM Thanks for the reply 8) I'm not using this version anymore but I got it working without that bit yes.
Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: bl33su on June 29, 2017, 07:27:51 PM so i got the launch control working... making loud bangs ;D
but after the car sorta has a misfire.. i turn it off and turn back on, all good again.. is this due to bad spark plugs or coil pack?

Loud bangs on a fuel cut limiter? Either you are in the wrong thread or something is seriously wrong with your engine. Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: Brando47 on October 15, 2017, 09:50:17 AM Has anyone toyed with the idea of turning the PI controller gains under NMAXMD to zero (NMXPG, NMXPRLG, KINMXG, KINMXRLG, TNMXPR?) so that maybe there is no throttle closing on the limiter, only fuel cut? As a potentially more efficient method than turning DNMAXH down low so fuel cut just comes on overshoot and confusing the PI controller that would likely end up with some wild throttle fluctuations and not building boost ideally. I would then set DNMAXH to 0 so the limiter is equal to NMAX. Obviously all this would also apply to the NMAXOG limiter as well which is obviously less safe than having throttle cut as well as fuel cut as the factory intended, not to mention the extra stress on the valvetrain etc that fuel cut would cause over throttle cut.
Another point, this sentence in the FR under NMAXMD "If tnmxh_w expired (TNMXH) a ramp for nmax w is started. The variable nmax_w is reduced in steps of DNMAX until it reached its lower limit NMAX" implies that maybe setting DNMAX to 0 will effectively disable the timer TNMXH (or at least the implementation of the ramp down to NMAX) so that the launch control rpm can be set below cruising speeds without the detrimental risk of NMAX overriding NMAXOG after 655 seconds. I haven't tried any of these myself yet, but I'll be sure to post any results Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: zamzu on January 05, 2019, 10:49:52 AM Hi,
can someone please confirm that on stock file 1.8t 8E0909518M VNMX is already set to 1.25 km/h and TMOTNMX is also set to -48c ? I was trying to play around with that "launch control" stuff, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm pretty sure I've got other scalars right. Is the VNMX on address: 11AC9? And I haven't found CWNMAXMD yet (is it the same as CWDNMAX in 7551M), could someone please help? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: nyet on January 05, 2019, 02:56:54 PM Loud bangs on a fuel cut limiter?

Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: zamzu on January 06, 2019, 12:28:21 AM I don't have any bangs or stuff like that, it drives and acts like normal, but the rev limiter (set to 3800) doesn't seem to work for some reason.
Any ideas? Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: zamzu on January 06, 2019, 07:15:46 AM Hi again,
can NMAXVG affect on this version of "launch control" ? . I've set it to 6400 in first two rows, so it is lower than my max rpm in NMAXOG. Thanks :) Title: Re: How to: Stock ECU Launch control on ME7 Post by: VAGonallHead on November 12, 2022, 07:25:58 AM So you want to launch like the cool Subaru/Evo kids? As it turns out we can! And it's pretty easy. It works like this.. ME7 has a bulit in raised rev limit function which is unused by default. We set it up so the standard rev limit (NMAX) becomes the launch rpm and the raised limit becomes the normal limiter. It's controlled by VNMX so that as long as the car is below 1.25 km/h the launch control limit is used. Above 1.25 km/h the raised limit aka the new normal limit is used. Here are the maps I modify including their M-Box addresses CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung Set to 1 VNMX (1157E) The vehicle speed for activating the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this as low at it goes (1.25 km/h) so the launch control shuts off as soon as you start moving off the line. DNMAXH (16304) This is the RPM above rev limit when the fuel cut comes on. Tweaking this helps make more boost on the limiter. I use 50 RPM (Keep in mind the maximum RPM limit is NMAXOG + DNMAXH) ITNMXH (16308) Dwell time under lower limit before activating the upper limit. We set this to 0 seconds NMAX (1630A) Ends up being the launch RPM. I've found 4500 RPM works well. NMAXOG (16312) This is the raised RPM limit which becomes the standard limit. Mine is set at 7100 RPM TMOTNMX (16316) Coolant temp for activating raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at -48 so that it can activate at any coolant temp. TNMXH (1631A) This is the time duration of the raised (normal) rev limit. We set this at it's maximum value of 655.3500 seconds. I haven't had a problem yet with this and have been testing for months. And here are the results! http://vimeo.com/14266421 (http://vimeo.com/14266421) Eventually the plan might be to make this into a self installing patch file like the Subaru guys use.

In my ECU CWNMAXMD (8-bit) Codeword Drehzahlbegrenzung has a value of 16. It`s really? As far as I understand, "16" is an incorrect value for the launcher control. Adress 116E6 is right for CWNMAXMD? |
