    Probably a good idea! Only thing I’d be worried about with off brand is it breaking.. I know the software license is only good for one computer. Has anyone had an issue with their computer breaking? Is it pretty straightforward you just have to buy the new software or will Matt work with you on that ??

    It's lenovo, just "refurbished" not "off brand". If it dies and you are a legit customer you will be taken care of.

    go to the Original Post (OP) page one or www.ovtune.com. Per Mat - 2016,2017,2018 and 2019 (AT only) supported. Exception 04B00 and O4B01 ECU - those would be 2016 year without the TSB's performed - which would take the ECU to 04B02 and 04B03. So if you are 2018 you should be good to go. ??? see OP and send Mat an email at the Zen desk noted on OP.

    easy to do. Even a cave man can do it. As note - instructions to a "t." Otherwise look for someone local to you and seek help. Be sure you have the proper computer - see Original Post or www.ovtune.com.

    You will (likely) download according to your ID. Do you know what your ID is? 04B02, 04B03...etc

    You don’t need to install the driver assuming you already have the flashing software installed for the tune. It uses the tactrix driver. You just need to select the interface in TS.

    What's going on with the handhelds? I recall OVT was waiting on something? Whoever they're waiting on; are they the only people on the planet that make that? There's no way to get the handhelds going?
