For instance we both have the same rom, but different years and models. But at the same time there can be 100% identical cars with even same exact build date but they may have different Roms because of some arbitrary factor such as their region. Only BMW knows why there are different rom families.

So needless to say even though we have the same rom, it doesn't mean the flash will be exactly the same.

I thought it was pretty interesting. Hope this helps out other members.

Only BMW. Thanks for the info.
