This article can be apply only on to Mib2 units, mostly MHI2 / MHI2q platforms! Doesn’t work with other MMIs and do not try! If you don’t know how to check, please read this manual (click).
Requirements
- Our script – click here
- Latest Europe firmware (this depends on your current firmware version and car model, here you can find manual how to check your current firmware – REMEMBER TO CHECK IT VIA RED ENGINEERING MENU! , when you get your current FW version need to find EU version, for example: if you have car from USA with firmware: MHI2_US_AU57x_xxxx need to find EU verion which should be: MHI2_ER_AU57x_xxxx, can you see the difference? US which is for USA and ER which is for Europe. If you not sure, send us your current firmware version and we will send you back link to the correct EU version.)

Script installation
When you download our script, you need to prepare SD CARD with it.
Prepare SD with script
First of all you need to get script, you can download it from here (click).
After downloading please unpack Mib2Patch.zip
Now prepare SD CARD.
I do recommend to use at least 8GB SD (script require smaller, but not every MMI want to read it).
Make sure you have formatted SD CARD as FAT32!!
Now go to the unpacked folder and you will see list like here:
Select all files and copy directly on to SD CARD. Make sure when you enter your SD you will see all above files directly on to SD – they cannot be in any parent folder.
and can jump to the car 🙂
How to install script
When you enter to your car, start your car and wait 5 to 10 minutes to all systems go up.
Insert SD in to Slot1 – script should start automatically within 60 seconds. If not! Then enter REM (Red Engineering Menu) and install it manually like a firmware.
MMI will reboot into FW update (SWDL) mode.
The unit might briefly display a message on screen notifying you that the system is not (yet) ready for installation or is preparing installation.
This is normal, just wait for the reboot.
Screen will go black and you will see the boot screen, as well as some update relates screens for a while.
Overall process will take about 5-10 minutes.
Basic unit backup will already be created during installation of M.I.B.
After installation is finished you will see a summary of the installed packages, all completed will be marked Y(es) (only Launcher in case of M.I.B install).
- Go back on that screen/exit the screen.
- The next Screen will present something like this: “Start diagnostic tester: Main unit/version…”.
- Press CANCEL
You might notice a Software Version Management Error (SVM) in 5F via OBD after M.I.B is installed. Remove it by running “SVM fix” function in this script.
Perform conversion
After M.I.B installation is finished and the unit has booted up you have to enter GEM.
Please note: GEM needs a moment after cold boot of unit to be accessible – up to 5 minutes are normal
Use the GEM key combinations valid for your unit to enter GEM.
Then select M.I.B
In next window scroll down to advanced_settings and go to eu_conversion, follow informations which you will see there.
you need to have prepared SD CARD with Europe firmware as well.
You might need also OBDEleven to change radio frequencies!!!
