Hi,

Me and a mate are currently learning how to chip tune, at the minute just using kess v2, winols and ECM titanium.

Done some learning on a PD golf with some basic tuning.

My mate has a R56 cooper S with plenty of mods but currently has a s**t map on it, we are wanting to read the map to make some sense of where it's going wrong but more importantly get it sent off to a professional to write a better one.

Tried to read through OBD with kess but it gets a checksum error and the file is only 64kb and when opened obviously isnt right. The other option is Tricore, which brings the instructions on how to do it.

1st question... how do I know which protocol i need to use? Theres 2 options for the turbo ECU.

2nd question... will kess read/write by boot mode without any issues?

Cheers
Rich

Couldn't remember the options so just checked, I've got 2 turbo options, IROM and XROM.

Had same thing happen with edc17cp14 through obd, but it worked ok with tricore adapter hooked up in bootmode

Hi matethere should be a column with the Engine code of the ecu a swell as the HP. i normally check the ecu personally, can you tell me what ecu this vehicle has?

I think it has the mevd17.2.2, that one should boot read me thinks
