I have a project I am gearing up for that will need a custom tune. I am looking for someone able to tune a 2000 D2 A8 facelift (with immobilizer) from a TIP to an 01e 6 speed and a few other tune tweaks. I know its been done a handful of times on this car so I'm guessing you guys are fully capable. Please contact me so we can chat about this conversion project.

Thanks,

Hey buddy. I saw you offer advice/help to one of the guys on a 4.2 manual conversion thread. Any chance we can have a chat about that subject please as I'm starting a similar project?

Many thanks,

Sorry,

I didn't know you posted a reply.

Long story...I bought an ecu from LKQ and it ended up being a ecu from a passat. I was able to do some programming with Ross Tech. Was able to get the car to run for 1 second. I then had the car towed to the dealer. They said it was the wrong ecu. They were unable to get the immobilizer programmed.

The guy at the dealer then told me I needed an ecu with numbers not matching the broken ecu I had. I told him I'd find one close to the one I already had in my car (and not pay $1700.00). I have a 4B0 906 018 M (with the apr chip).

I found an ecu with the same numbers but two letters on the end. (forgot off hand).

I just got the car back today. They said that the car will not if programmed for a "MANUAL" trans. They then programmed it for an AUTOMATIC trans. The car runs. They great thing now is that the CEL is on. Great fix ass wipes! Now the car can not be smogged!

I was wondering if a APR chip bypasses all that audi crap?

Id love to test out some files, totally capable of logging not sure about flashing though, need to buy some more components from what i read.

I hate the nefmoto is such a 4 letter word here.
