VW Cobb AccessPort Sale!

so from an r35 to a GTI, are you even entertained a little?

LOL

That was several cars ago....

I used to do nothing but spend every dollar on cars. Then I got old and diverted 99% to not working forever.

Random question. The Cobb tune will throw TD1, correct? What’s the chances you do a TD1 reset, and warranty might still work for anything engine/ drive line?

Considering if I keep current car... Trying sell or trade for an R probably.

You can't reset the flash counter period.

How do you figure out if it's identified your transmission correctly? I have a 2019 with DSG and need to make sure I'm using a compatible file for the 7 speed.

So the flash counter without having an actual TD1 show up will be obvious, and an immediate warranty nope?

Also, what kind of trap speeds for stock GTI and R on good 93, on the stock Eqt tunes can be expected? Good air etc, ideal condition...

Depends on what type of warranty work. My dealer warrantied my thermostat housing leak and my ECU has been flashed numerous times.

Engine, turbo, and trans would be the concerns.

Would almost for sure void the warranty for those things. My thermostat housing leak fix could have been considered an engine part warranty but it depends upon the dealer you use. Mine is mod friendly.

Cool, thought would be like that. Didn’t know if people have had experience with Cobb and resetting the TD1, and getting lucky maybe w bigger engine related warranty claims.

Unfortunately TD1 or actually the flash counter can't be reset by anyone.

I've always been of the opinion that an otherwise healthy car (barring built on Friday afternoon problems such as badly torqued bearings/freak accidents) will live a longer and healthy life @ Stage2 power levels.

It's life is easier overall, less restrictions, a lot less lean under boost ect.

If you've put 20k miles of non-babied life on her and nothing has showed signs of weakness, treat yourself.

And a lot less short shifting if you flash a DSG. Car has stock shift points like my old TDI.

Every time I see you post because of your username I think of this.

Random, but I am apr stage 2 and I know before flashing eqt it is advised to flash back to stock but my dealer has a 2 week wait minimum and I have the ap with eqt base tune sitting in front of me .... will I be okay if I just flash over the apr tune?
