Question Autologic cant access any chassis/suspension etc

hi all

Hooked my car up to Autologic and for some reason it says the chassis/suspension and maybe brakes (i cant remember) is blocked or something..

Is this a problem with the car, Maybe Autovogue 'blocked' it for some reason? or is it the Autologic??

Might be that the modules aren't being read properly by the Autologic. Did your indy get on to Autologic technical support for help ?? I doubt Autovogue have done anything untoward with the ECU - they're pretty dumb in that regard...

I have seen autovogue offering a re-map service - they were also advertising many of their cars with 'bhp upgrades' - maybe they have got into diy ECU maps?

They probably buy MAPS / coded leads and software from any number of tuners and then they just download with a laptop following simple instructions.

There are relatively few respectable in-house developers around with proper facilities, like DMS, Evolve, P Torque etc.

Nowadays you can buy MAP software from some back street tuner in the US or wherever via email and just sell it on over here, no customising, no checks on your vehicle, no backup, no nothing.

Watch out for dubious 'claims' of re-mapping services.

I got my remap done by motechperformance. They do remaps for Autovogue I believe.

I'm happy with my remap thus far, 6k miles in and its doing well.

I do imagine its a generic map that they have bought in, as it has the same "gains" as all the other tuners out there.

Not here to start any arguments people just seeing if can help with problems,

We do use Mike at Motech so he looks after most of the Tuning side, this way as mentioned above all checks, backups, test drives are all carried out.

Did we even map the car?

No remap was put on the car when i bought it.
Is it a case of the Autologic being at fault?
