AKS Tuning (vRSAlex)
rich83:
On certain models...like the 2010+ 170CR diesel the ECU is locked, it cannot be flashed via the OBD port. So, you have to remove the ECU, use the REVO SPX unit to probe the ECU to remove the lock, and then either flash it on the bench or reinstall the ECU and use the OBD port like normal.
Absolute ball ache for Alex, something that should take 20-30mins max. ends up taking about 2-3 hours.

its the sameon pretty much all the VAG stuff thats released nowadays. the encryptions pretty much render the OBDII port useless for the tuners apart from VCDS logging.

Another big thanks to Alex from me, he managed to squeeze me in this week at shortish notice for quite a bit of work.
As always very impressed with the standard and quality of his work and the car feels great now. I even got a ride in the Octavia which is a serious bit of kit, I've ever been in any diesel that goes or handles like that. Any work that needs doing on my car now will be done by Alex definitely worth the 160mile round trip to know the job will get done right :happy2:

Deisel? :laugh: 2.0tfsi :wink:
The Octavias handling defies physics with the amount of grip it has haha.
Nodz:
Epic face palm moment there, for some reason I thought all early vrs's were diesels but it was only the fabia's weren't it but I was actually meant to type estate so it's a double face palm moment lol
Your car was looking good Mike :happy2:
