    M track mode w/ZHP rack

    A long time ago I coded M track mode and with a ZHP rack ready to install I want MTM to work correctly.

    I remember having to make changes for the brakes and steering rack as the vehicle doesn't have those ZCP components.

    Two questions:

    - Is the ZHP rack similar enough to the ZCP as to not cause issues? I forgot what the ratio difference is of any.

    - What selection do I need to make for a ZHP rack?
    I believe it was "wert_05" or something similar I selected for my green tag rack.

    ZHP is 13.7:1 and ZCP is 14.5:1. ZHP is closer to ZCP than it is to standard 15.4:1.

    Settings are in the M-track mode PDF - https://nam3forum.com/forums/forum/m...3-m-track-mode

    Edit: ZHP rack fitment on M3 below vvv

      IIRC the ZHP is also 14.5:1 when installed in the M3-- 13.7:1 when installed in the non M e46.

      Edit: confirmed:
      I see a lot of misinformation regarding steering modifications being passed around Facebook groups and forums almost daily, so I’ve decided to put together this information thread to correct the many misconceptions, and to compile a comprehensive database for steering rack swaps and power steering modifications.

        I see the PDF has instructions on coding a non-ZCP rack but now that I have (effectively) a ZCP what is the setting that I now need?
        Not sure if I noted that before changing it unfortunately.

        Could I go through the steps again for MTM and would it select the ZCP rack setting by default like the first time around?

          Summary of CSL/CS codes taken from that thread (standard M3 in brackets):

          PRE_MSR = aktiv (nicht_aktiv)

          BAUART_MK60 = csl (coupe_m)

          TRAKTIONDIFFERENZREGELUNG = aktiv (nicht_aktiv)

          DTC_LAMPE = aktiv (nicht_aktiv)

          DRUCKMODELL_HINTERACHSE = typ_3 (typ_2)

          UEBERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2 = wert_11 (wert_09)

          UNTERSTEUERSCHWELLE_2 = wert_04 (wert_05)

          UNTERSTEUERN_MUE_1_2 = wert_03 (wert_02)

          LENKWINKELKENNLINIE_2 = wert_04 (wert_05)


          M-track codes explained:

          TRAKTIONDIFFERENZREGELUNG
          DTC_LAMPE and possibly PRE_MSR (Not really sure what this one does)

          DRUCKMODELL_HINTERACHSE is for the larger piston in the ZCP/CSL calipers

          LENKWINKELKENNLINIE_2 is for the quicker steering rack in the ZCP/CSL

          BAUART_MK60 seems to control when ABS intervenes (some people buy ZCP modules because apparently ABS doesn't kick in as early, I think this is the line that controls that)

          The rest of the values seem to adjust when the DSC intervenes when everything is on. On my car, I left everything coded at the ZCP values except for the steering angle value since I still have the standard M3 steering rack.

          Also you must recode the cluster for the M-track symbol to light up. The line you want to set is "ANZEIGE_HOCHLADEN" (set it to aktiv)
