Good video for how to. I noticed something at the end that makes me wonder so I will ask. The transmission was in SD not AD what is up with that? My new car does that SD at times and at other times it is AD? my preference is SD as the car has more bite.

you might have to clean the switch.

Default is always the economy, in case of my car the switch is S-E-M, so it is always on E when I switch ignition on.

A is adaptive, S is sport - these are the options I have, no economy for me. Now I know how to fit one all I need to know is where to get one!

the chip shown in the video is from me. Standard performance chip on the German 7-forum in E32 730/740 V8, E34 530/540 V8 and E31 840 V8.
But that chip is for the Motronic -404.
You mention
"UK 1997 e34 540iA Touring"
that probably has the newer Motronic -484, as also used in early E38.
My chip does not work on the -484 Motronic. The chaps in Germany have tried it, but engine did not start. They assume it is caused by the EWS in the -484.
I have heard that on the -484 you need to reprogram the new chip also the EWS data of the individual car.

Shogun , So you sell chips now?

already since some years, read the threads of the German 7-forum for Rottaler2 chips, plenty of people use them.

M60 -404
M30 -15x and the newer 17x version (1.1 and 1.3)
M70 complete set of 3 = 2 x MOTRONIC plus EML for the max speed limiter elimination and more crispy throttle valve control,
both: prefacelift -156 Motronic, and the facelift M70 with -352 MOTRONIC.
Nothing for other engines/Motronics.

Ahh. Perhaps mine is the 484 (can't remember). I know Mark DeSylva made them for EWSII (or is it EWS-III), 95 octane and mine certainly requires an EWS compatible chip. Perhaps he now has one tuned for 98 or 100 octane. (Mine is an Austrlaian 540iLE, ie M-Sport 540i). His 'EAT Ultrachips' can be bought from Mark at http://www.d-sylvatech.ca. It made an incredible difference.

According to Real OEM my car was manufactured in Feb 1996, but it was registered in 1997 long after the e39 was already on sale.

So does that mean your chip will work? Do tell us more....what gains and how much?

Where do I purchase a chip for the M30?
