Re: E38 reflash

The segment swaps can be done in HPT. I'm not sure why he doesn't think that would work, unless he's under the impression that the issue is in a sector specifically not being written?

I'd see if you can get it reflashed through HPT first. It needs to be done as a complete overwrite, not an update or quick flash. A truly corrupt flash is fairly uncommon.

In terms of trying to get a dealer to do it? Hit or miss. Some cool service advisors may let you bring it in and throw an TechIII on it, but I have not had luck getting favors from any of my local dealers.
