ECUTEK - Everything

arnoldas

Does anyone else have a problem with launch control not working? Tuner sent snapshot to show that its been activated but whenever i switch to map 3 and try to use it, it never works. To use it i am turning off vdc, pressing and holding in clutch, engaging into first gear, wot, and trying to turn it down with cruise control but car just stays at redline. Tried it at least 7 times already and still not working. Anyone else have this issue or a solution? Thanks in advance!

It seems you are correct in your sequence of initiating launch control. The bit of advice I can offer is that you must be sure to stab the accelerator to the floor and not ease into WOT.

Haven't tried it on mine yet (trying to baby my stock clutch)..but JTRAN did also tell me to slam the throttle and also mentioned it would not work until the car was up to temp.

Good point about temperature, although I can't imagine anyone who cares about their car (having already spent money on mods) would try to use launch control before the oil temperature is at least 180 degrees.

Is Seb the only one who offers the eTune option? Also, does anyone know his email?

Just got an email from Seb today b/c I am debating on taking the leap. Did you have uprev before? Can you tell the difference?

Stick with Seb for sure. You should def be able to tell the difference between Uprev and Ecutek. I know I did.

For sure there is. I felt a big difference , I dyno'd 15 whp more with ECUTEK than UPREV and the gains are though the whole power band!

I have an Ecutek for almost 2 years now on my Q40 , but I hardly use the valet mode.
I don't know if it is a bug, but It would take me more than 10 attempts to disengage the valet mode.

My setup is 1k RPM (fuel saver) , 2k RPM (immobilizer) , 3k RPM (Tuned standard) , 4k RPM (aggressive) , 7.5k RPM (valet)

I don't have problem switching on and off with immobilizer setting, my issue is the valet mode.

Is there a sequence to disengage valet mode? I thought you just move the tach needle from 7.5k rpm (valet) to either map 1, 3 and 4?

Jhill

if it is tune from Seb then no you must have missed his important note on how to get out of valet mode and not get stuck in it (I myself cant find where I read it now but I know I saw it).

to go to valet you hold cancel and then go to 7500 or 8 whatever it is and then hit cancel. to get back out of valet you hold cancel then go to 7500/8k and hit cancel. now your back to whatever map you were in before valet.
