you dont need any desoldering. Boot mode is the best for these ecus.
enemigo read again what i wrote. I did not wrote what is best but what is most reliable.
Post is about reliability. When you have file prepared and checksum calculated - chip programmer never fails as it does not
calculate checksum. So you write what you have, chip programmer does not change file / checksum parts, it simply writes what you have, than you are sure what is on the ECU - exactly what you did in file, no messing around with flasher checksum calculations and
automatical file changing by it.
Once when you change lots of parts of the binary (
parts that not lots of people know how they work - even if they have damos or function descriptions...)
in me7.5 you notice that programmer can not handle all checksum blocks and car wont start. There are parts of the binary that are not covered with checksum calculation by almost any programmer. Most of maps that are not covered by flasher checksum modules are onedimensional and not known by some softwares that are automaticaly finding maps...like ecm and similar.
So for deep and PRO work, you can face a problem with programmer checksum calculations as it does not cover that areas.
