Dealer de-tune
Posted: Tue Aug 03, 2021 11:18 am
Hi K,
I’m in Melbourne Australia & have owned a 2019 RS Hatch from new.
I was very impressed with its touchy response & perky nature until I drove out of the dealership after its first service. If it didn’t look the same I would have thought I was driving a different car.
I was told by a tune specialist that the car had been de-tuned & the ecu was locked. Nothing could be done until a hack came out to access it.
I hoped ktuner could bring back my hatch. The ecu is a AGS83*. With only a few options available I flashed 21.5psi, it feels & sounds stronger but the flat spot on take off is still there.
Any ideas ??
