Frequently Asked Questions

How can I flash the software after the unlock?

After the unlock, you can flash the software directly via the OBD2 port or through an OBD bench setup using the CAN bus.
You can use our KM eFlash dongle or a J2534-compatible interface, such as the Tactrix Openport 2.0 or Scanmatik.
The required Windows software and license will be provided free of charge as part of the unlock service.

Can I read out the ECU after the unlock?

With this ECU generation, reading is unfortunately no longer possible – neither via OBD nor in bench mode.
You can only write your modifications to the ECU; reading is not supported by the manufacturer.
Our team will provide you with the original file during the ECU unlock.

Can I use Autotuner, Magic Flex or other tools?

No, those tools do not support the required OBD protocol. You can use our KM eFlash dongle or a J2534-compatible interface, such as the Tactrix Openport 2.0 or Scanmatik.
The required Windows software and license are provided free of charge as part of the unlock service.
