The BMW N47 2.0L Diesel engine is a robust and efficient platform found in a variety of BMW models. At TuneZilla, we’ve developed dedicated ECU calibrations to extract the best balance of power, torque, and drivability — while maintaining reliability and fuel efficiency.
Stage 1 is designed for those who want a noticeable performance increase on completely stock hardware. With no modifications required, you’ll experience a significant jump in torque and responsiveness — ideal for everyday driving and long highway pulls.
Power: 184 HP / 275 TQ

We also support Dynamic EGR and Full Delete configurations (for off-road use only). Using the FlashZilla V3, you can easily select and configure these options directly when flashing your ECU.
Please note that models produced from June 2015 and later require bench-flashing and will not work with FlashZilla OBD tools.Your vehicle’s production date can be found on the VIN placard inside the driver-side door jamb.
Before flashing, check which ECU your vehicle uses:
If you have a C50 ECU, FlashZilla OBD is supported.
If you have a C76 ECU, the ECU must be shipped in for bench flashing.
You can verify your ECU type by entering your Bosch part number on the manufacturer’s website.
Stage 2 refines the tune even further, delivering stronger midrange torque and quicker turbo response. This calibration makes full use of the factory turbo system and fueling capabilities, offering a more aggressive and dynamic powerband without sacrificing reliability.

Custom Tuning starts at $1999. To get a more accurate cost on your custom tune, please create a ticket and tell us more about your build, and your specific modifications.
If you feel that our existing tune offerings will not work for your application or your intended use, you can request Custom Tuning. Custom Tuning must be requested through our Tickets, and you must provide vehicle information as well as hardware (upgrades) information. Once submitted, our team of calibrators will evaluate your request and determine if Custom Tuning can achieve your goals and if they are able, your Tune Request will be accepted.
Custom Tuning requires heavy participation from the Customer, either through an Authorized TZ Dealer or the Customer themselves. TuneZilla Calibrators will require that the vehicle has access to dyno time when needed, and data logging is required. If you are not comfortable with data logging, and if you may not be able to access a facility with a dyno (many facilities will rent dyno time) custom tuning may not be possible for you.
Custom Tuning vs. Off The Shelf Tuning
We understand that our end users have varying driving styles and build purposes, which is why we offer revisions on all of our Off-The-Shelf tunes. By offering Custom Tuning to our customers, we can be sure you are getting the most out of your vehicle with your specific parts upgrades. Our OTS (off-the-shelf) maps are tested in house with as many variables as possible to ensure even if you don’t want to customize your tune, your vehicle’s OEM sensors and adaptations will still be able to optimize our tunes to your region’s fuel and most bolt-on upgrades. Tune Revisions are not the same as Custom Tunes. See our Terms and Conditions for our re-tune policy (section 4b)
We believe it’s important for our customers to understand what is happening inside their engine so they can make informative decisions. Our LOG VIEWER automatically generates your vehicles data log .csv files into easy to read graphs which can then be viewed by our Calibrators to find areas of optimization on your vehicle. Not only can this data be used to optimize your tunes, but a lot of troubleshooting and diagnosing can be done by comparing requested data to actual data at a glance.
In many cases, custom tuning is not required. If you are unsure if you will benefit from a Custom Tune, you can reach out to our team and upload data logs for them to examine.
