Have you spoken to Gavin (username h100vw) as he is the Aust dealer for Custom Code and is active on this forum.
rgvlee is the only guy that has one in Australia that I am aware of.
I can bench flash your ECU if you are just looking at Phase 1. I do have a spare ECU with no immobiliser in it. Which I can send to keep you on the road.
should have brought my ecu with me... It's in new zealand.
Yeah folks @ custom code UK said they're waiting on a shipment or something. 8 weeks he reckoned 1 month ago.
will see how i go I'll try get in touch with rgvlee
How long are you here for, can you get it sent over?
I don't know anything about the Flashwire, like if it's locked to the VIN or something?? It was never designed to be sent out from agents, only the HQ in the UK.
I heard back from the UK at the weekend. The Flashwire cable is VIN locked once used, so you can't move them around unfortunately.
If you get a Phase 2 tune, because you have a downpipe and high flow cat, putting the VW tune back on will cause a CEL inside of a few 100km as the ECU detects the "cat inefficiency".
So really I don't see any benefit except the remote tuning capability.
If you wanted the ability to restrict performance, for younger driver or whatever, you can do that with an ebay VCDS cable and unisettings.
