That's what I thought and I derped a bit. Turns out my binary has four ESKONF's and I wasn't changing the correct one. I changed them all to what I needed and it's good to go now!
Thank you!
Anyone know why there are more then one ESKONF sections on some binaries?
haha, nice , its probably the same story as with 0_1_a etc maps. They might be setup for the same car but in different versions. FWD,Quattro, Manual and auto. Could be wrong though.
