    Yes. I'm just trying to figure out if you can connect with another method. I don't think many folks are using tablets. But, it should work since you're running Windows.

    Just curious, is it the full version of Windows or Windows Mobile?

    Since you're a 2016, you would want to do an ECU update anyway, so there are benefits to having TS installed.

    The OVT / Tactrix adapter has a lot of uses beyond flashing the OV Tunes.

    full version, I’ve got all the software downloaded that I should.

    I had a TBS update done about a year and a half ago. From dealer

    I guess if I can’t get this to work going to have to download the TS

    That TSB flash should have you on the latest ECU ID if your an AT. There is a newer one for MTs.


    TS will not help with vF flashes. Like I said, it is just another way to connect on the Taco as a test.

    I am a auto, yea I get what ur saying! Just wish there was a help line to call or someone in or around the Wilmington nc that could help a brother out! So frustrating for me. Lack of knowledge on the subject or very tech savvy. I’m trying my best but am falling short. If anyone has a iPhone willing to FaceTime me or Video chat please hit me up and I’ll send you my number. Hell even willing to Venmo someone a little cash if they can help me!

    You're close to getting there.

    I could do a call or a Zoom later today. About 7p your time.

    Android here, so no FaceTime.

    Question.

    If I have a fully registered VF Tune Program and tune files for lets say 04B04 or 04B31, would those ECU ID's still need to be unlocked in VF..? I'm still waiting for my ECU ID to be unlocked, but in the meantime I've been saving files for other ID's, as I will plan to offer tuning in my area for others...

    I haven't been on in a while and have a few questions. I am still running the original VFTune program and see there have been several updates. Will my license/registration and unlocked ECU's automatically transfer to the update when I download and install it or will I need to resubmit and get new "keys"?

    The only ecu’s unlocked would be your own. You would have to pay $75 to unlock each ecu other than your own. You will get packs for each ecu you pay for.That’s how I understand it anyway.Someone will correct me if I am in error.

    I think early on, there was big change in the download that triggered a warning? But in general, just download and install the new version. A lot of new and killer stuff has been added since then!

    Have fun!

    You ain't the first (or twentieth) person to ask . . .


    Nah! We're crowdsourcing this shit. I know that you can Copy n Paste. Be sure to check out the vF MT thread in the Perf and Tuning forum.
