Coding, Updating & Programming Control Modules
Meister Werks now has the ability to code, update & program control modules. We can fully scan your BMW, VW or Audi and verify that the control modules are up to date.
The manufacturers regularly update software that is necessary for a efficiently running vehicle. When cars are first manufactured, the parameters are written for very tight tolerances. As the cars age and parts start to break in, some parameters can slightly shift out. This can cause check engine lights or components to no longer function. Often, this does not mean than the part is faulty, the software just needs updated. Just like your laptop computer or smart phone.
2006 BMW M6 V10
In the case of this 2006 BMW M6 V10, there were many modules that would not function even after we replaced the faulty components. The communication between modules would no longer talk to each other. After scanning this BMW with our new software, we found many modules were out of date. After performing an update, the car ran and sounded much better. The steering column switch that failed, now is functional. The software will also tell us if there is a faulty component, a wire short and where the location of that is. This makes diagnosing you vehicle much quicker and the result is a potentially smaller repair bill.
In this instance, the screen shot shows the version ID from BMW’s plant in Munich, Germany (outlined in red) is much older than the software on the vehicle. Our software connects directly to the manufacturer, insuring the most up to date software is loaded onto your vehicle. This will update everything from engine control modules and transmission control modules to the radio, battery control modules and even the instrument cluster.

A Quality Oil Filter is Important
At Meister Werks, we only use the highest quality oil filter on your vehicle. In this demonstration you can see the difference between high quality and low quality oil filters.
Both filters were removed from the same car, using the same oil. However the interval was drastically different. The one on the top left is a quality oil filter manufactured by Mann, a German company. The other filter pictured has clearly collapsed, which makes it much less effective at filtering oil. These lower quality oil filters can also start disintegrating and get in your oil system, which creating larger problems down the road. The bottom right filter was only used for 1,000 miles, while the other one was used for over 5,000 miles.
Despite what the dealer or manufacturer recommends, we suggest changing your oil and filter at 5,000 miles on all your vehicles. Some manufacturers recommend changing the oil and filter every 10,000 miles, this is a national average and does not take into account our local climate, the driver’s driving style, or the manner in which the vehicle is used. For example, a vehicle that is used mostly for short trips in stop and go traffic means you may need your oil changed more frequently, such as 3,000 miles. Some people who do a lot of long distance freeway driving might be able to go longer than 5,000 miles. Our standard recommendation is 5,000.
At Meister Werks, we help you keep track of your vehicle’s oil service intervals and make sure your vehicle is in tip top shape with our courtesy 30 point inspection. We also use the highest quality oil and filters on the market for your European or import vehicle. Sometimes a quick change oil service company seems convenient, however they might not use quality parts or proper oil which can result in damage or breakdowns and they may not perform inspections which could uncover additional maintenance and repairs your vehicle needs.
Contact us today and get your oil and filter service appointment. To make an appointment, call 425-254-0627 or email us. Meister Werks European & Import is located one block south from The Renton Landing in Renton, WA.

Custom Trunk for Air Ride
This morning we delivered Dominick’s custom trunk air ride set up. Dom brought his car in for some air ride maintenance. After doing an inspection on the entire system he decided to have everything redone.
We started by rerunning all the airlines and made sure everything was secure and in the right places. We also pulled the Airlift Performance 3P harness out and rewired that. Afterwards we built a entirely new custom trunk setup with hardwood floors. We anchored the tank, manifold and compressor onto the hardwood and rewired the trunk harness for easy accessibility. After that we put a fresh coat of bronze chrome powder from Prismatic Powders and a thick coat of Clear Vision clear-coat. Lastly we re-plumbed all the air lines into the tank and compressor so everything was nice and clean.
After all was said and done, this custom trunk turned out very nice! Thanks to our installers, Keenan and Luke for turning this out so quickly for Dom.
For more info for your custom trunk, call 425-254-0627 or email us to make your appointment. Meister Werks European & Import is located one block south from The Renton Landing in Renton, WA.
BMW & Mercedes Benz Repair
A few weeks back we had a Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG and a BMW 640i in for some repair.
The E55 AMG had a bad exhaust manifold and both catalytic converters. The customer had taken it to the dealer and they quoted them an exorbitant amount of money to fix this simple problem. We were able to find a after market equivalent for over half the price.
The BWW had a bad alternator and battery which we diagnosed and fixed by the end of the day. The battery had been draining for a while. When this happens it will cause the alternator to run double duty. Furthermore, this will also wear out the electronics in the unit.
The Scirocco is the owner’s personal project car that is in the process of receiving a new Audi engine. So stay tuned on more posts about that car.
If you need any repair, a new catalytic converter, exhaust manifold, battery or alternator changed out, we can do it. Feel free to call for a free quote or to schedule an appointment at 425-254-0627 or email us.
Mk1 VW Scirocco Custom Wheels
Meister Werks has an special way to convert a OEM wheel into a 3 piece custom wheel. These VW Scirocco wheels have been machined to accept BBS Motorsport racing lips. We machine these wheels from a 13″ and upsize them to a 15″ using this technique. We can bolt directly on to this pattern 15″,16″ and 17″ lips and barrels.
After we converted these 3 piece VW wheels, we powder coated them with a base coat of gold and a top coat of candy lollypop red. Masking the flanges and back side was necessary since we have to seal the back barrel with silicone. The front side uses a gasket also made by BBS. Since these are both flat lip and barrels, there is no way to mount the tires. The wheel must be assembled inside the tires. On 16″ and 17″ BBS Motorsport lips, this is not a problem since they are not flat lips. The 16″ & 17″ barrels have a drop that allows the tire mount with a regular tire machine and does not require a gasket.
Pricing to convert these VW wheels to a 3 piece wheel starts at $3000 and goes up, depending on machining times, materials and hardware.
