      I reckon they'll find that almost impossible to do. The VW machine can't do an update unless there's one available and it goes off the ECU part number and software coding.

      There's often multiple software codings floating around for each ECU. For example, I have seen 3 for the MK5 125kw diesel.

        oh that's good news indeed.
        glad to hear that the machine will prevent the loading of incorrect software maps, based on the ecu number

          Fantastic... APR tune lifted from 147kW to 180kW. So much nicer to drive once the gearbox was replaced.
