Oh, and the car was already out of warranty, so no problem there.
I have sent the original backupped ECU software to a specialist shop that will not mark any of these actions down anywhere and they should be able to reprogram the ECU. If that fails, Henk at Fastchip does offer a force-reflash...
Yea, he did have his own RSTuner, but no lappie. Hence my "help" was needed.
We did disconnect the batter for ~10min, but that didn't help. We'll see tomorrow if we can get it force-reflashed by a dealership.
I originally updated my Clio III without any issues what-so-ever. This was because there was only one update to the ECU and one map to follow it.
Now, a friend of mine didn't have a laptop, so I lent mine and we programmed his Clio II. I got the latest software and the map to accompany it and...

I'm still waiting for the calibration file for my RS...
Due to the fact that all the users seem to be pleased with this product and that the support by Hank seems to work through this forum as well, I have as of today pulled the trigger for an normal RSTuner :)
I do hope that I won't be disappointed.
