It's often better this way, because the translations are sometimes truly awful.

Basically correct, but especially in the east, there are also many people who are not suitable for that. I once got on the wrong side of my colleagues by using an English-language software.

Hi,

A German version is being developed. First, the label files and error messages will be translated.
Currently, there are already German-language plugins available for this (e.g., measurement curve display, TDI injection start setting).

Best regards, Rainer.

Okay, here's the latest update on the topic of chip tuning.

I went to VW and had them run a diagnostic test on my car using their measuring equipment.
(They even did it for free this time - so a big thank you to Wolperding in Winsen, and I highly recommend them.)

Both the LMM and the Turbo deliver top-notch performance.
I confronted the guy who implanted the chip in me about it, and he was completely speechless. He said he's going to call the supplier and then we'll see what happens. He even admits that something isn't right, and if I'm in doubt, he's willing to give me my money back.


Let's put it another way - because of my connections, I had this part installed for 350 euros. Where else can you get a chip with this level of performance increase for this price?

Hi Roadrunner.

(Oops, "Roadrunner" is actually a very German-sounding name - a little jab at German naming conventions.) Program versions icon_wink.gif

Okay, regarding the topic.

350 EUR for what?? Does the TÜV report/registration include everything?

Or is it just a matter of connecting the ECU, inserting a chip, disconnecting the ECU, and it's done (and then you no longer have a legally compliant vehicle)?

I think that if you're looking for something in good condition (i.e., with everything included), you won't find anything for 350 euros. ********, ***, and others all want to see "some" more money.
