hi there, this is my first attempt to chip a car so please be patient
i've knowledges about assembly and programming, but not really on tunning lol.
just got a cable and i'm trying to flash the ecu of my friend's jetta / bora 1.8t.
the ecu of my friend says this on me7logger:
[Identification]
HWNumber = {0261207441}
SWNumber = {1037360647}
PartNumber = {06A906032HP }
SWVersion = {0001}
EngineId = {1.8L R4/5VT }
i'm interested to put this for do some tests and see how the car changes and what i have to change to tune another car:
http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=1272.0title=-> Contents of ECUID data table:
- '0261207440' (SSECUHN)
- '1037360646' (SSECUSN)
- '06A906032HN ' (VAG part number)
- '0001' (VAG sw number)
- '1.8L R4/5VT ' (engine id)
for what i see, mostly of maps have the same offset, just if you open it in hex it have some little differences in the code, my friend's jetta is a bit newer model.
so, i've 2 options:
1. copy the modified maps from the tuned file to this newer original ecu file.
2. just flash this 1 version older ecu, and see what happens, and this is where i doubt, the engines are the same and the hardware is almost the same, what will happens if i flash this file?
and what do you base on for flashing different ecu models on same cars, this will be risky?
is my first flash i dont want break my friends ecu so i'm aware about triple verify checksums before do it with multiple programs XD.
thank you and best regards!.
