Default RE: New software level

Hold on. I've gotten confused going between a few different threads.

If your chip HAS been reflashed by the dealer, then nothing you do, save going to get it reflashed, will bring it back. However, if your car wasn't actually reflashed by the dealer, then I've seen times where the program from the tuner was changed back to stock. In that instance, you'll need to advance the program via the cruisecontrol/SPS Select, or by the tuner's laptop. Sometimesremoving the battery cables also will reset the program if you don't have access to the changing devices.

Whew! Hope that clears up my brain dump just a little?



Cheers!

Lectrolink > This has happened to me the last two visits to the dealership - each time with a different result. If you haven't already solved your problem, it's likely one of two things. Either they reflashed your chip, in which case you will need to visit Neuspeed for a redo (as Chef suggested), or they disconnected the battery which resulted in a new "learned" power curve. The latter will be evident if your boost is still in chip range (19 +), but the power curve just doesn't feel the same (as you stated). This happened to me and a 5 minute battery disconnect, followed by my normal driving habits fixed the problem! Hope that helps.
