RSTuner = Locked ECU

[Aaron182.]

Well it turns out some of the rstuners
(Probably the newer ones) basically lock your ECU so that companies such as K-tec can't map your car.

Just a heads up

They always cause problems, it's not just the later ones. You may be right that the later versions have become even more of a problem to get rid of

Time to buy a virgin ECU

You should be able to boot map it tbh.

You're stuck with pops and bangs for the rest of your life

No thanks. I have a Cat fitted.

Means mapping it off the car and not via the Obd port.

Im gona guess the guys at K-tec would have tried that this afternoon. and obviously had no luck. they are looking at how to basically unlock it tho.

Can't imagine Ktec have been that competant.

shows what you don't know then.

Spoke to Andy about it Briefly. He's got to boot load it as mentioned above. The lock outs are stupid really, it's not like absolutely everyone hasn't got the maps anyway

Not that I want to get mine mapped again but think this takes it a bit far with the whole locking business.
