Hi

I been bricking two ecu:s now and i cant tell why...Ofcourse they are spares ..

The eeprom is working perfectly. Nothing is wrong there!

When the tune is flashed and the car start but...  it runs for 2 sec with pedal to the metal and runs up to 2500 rpm.. then you hear klick klick then it dies for 1 to 1.5sec... the runs again for 2 sec.. klick klick then the same again and again and again .. you get it!

But then you try to reflash, it won´t go into bootmode or kwp mode.. seems like a bricked ecu....

I wounder if anyone can help me pointing in the right direction on where i did something wrong...Because im cluless

The car is a Audi A4 quattro 1.8t 190hp -04 and ecu is 8E0909518AS.

Does it work with a stock file?

If so, itemize the modifications you made, map by map.

If you want you can use file from my car. It is also BEX engine code, i made XDF for it. If there is something missing from xdf you need, yust let me know I will add it. Also I can send you my EEPROM if you need it for croshflashing

Got a new ECU from ebay and this one is working great in bootmode! 


Did use my tune file with only map changes... and it´s working again .. with alot of emission errors ofcourse and soo on .. but they will be corrected in time with some trial and errors ......
 

But Nyet i found a "few" address that wasnt the same on my 518AS to yours 518AH..  and some values that are in AH and not AS...  But i think i will have them worked out with AH as a reference.

So my mistake.. from the beginning to not double-check or triple-check everything .... But seems like I on the right way to get it to working now.


Just to redo everything again without errors...I hope!
