Driving to Change the Flywheel Status to Ready

^ Hook up the VST and go into the Monitor Test Scroll List refer to VST Screen Navigation for OBD II Trip and Flywheel Readiness.

^ Find the Flywheel Status and the Flywheel Adaptive values (F ADAP, F A DOPT, F ADAP C, etc.)

NOTE:
These scroll list parameters are only available for M 4.4. The procedure works for M 4.3, but you can not check to see if the Flywheel Adaptive Status has changed to READY.

^ Drive the car in 2nd or 3rd gear (2500 - 3500 mm) and decelerate without using the brake (a long downhill is helpful for this but not necessary). The flywheel adaptive values should begin to change.

^ Repeat the decelerations until the adaptive values stop changing. At that time, the Flywheel Status changes to READY.

^ Now you can let the engine temperature cool down to between 29 °C -49 °C so you can begin the TRIP.
