EPL gone? Need to flash back to stock

[Dmauldin]

I guess I found out about 6 months too late that EPL shut down.
As has been the issue many times over the last 3 years when I've gone to flash a different tune - the server and my program are not communicating.

I have a Unitronic cable and an EPL cable (Unitronic is from an old A4 tune)

Does anyone have any tips on how I can flash back to stock with what I have without spending another $500-$1000 when I just want to go back to stock for the foreseeable future?

Unfortunately, no dice man. Since they shut down their servers, flashing to stock is not possible. You will have to buy another tune.

Back when they were closing the doors, IE and 034 were giving some good discounts to EPL customers. May try calling them to see if that’s still an option.

Thanks Matty.

I wonder if USP (flash back to stock (APR)) would work. I sent them an email.
I mean.. It all should be the same stock file.

Dude, I needed to flash my Q530 back to stock before trading in. NOPE. Calling, emailing, everything. NOPE. 2 months of it and I have to trade in a Dual Pulley Software in a Single Pulley car as I took off the JHM crank pulley without knowing they stopped!

Yeah, unfortunate - really..

I feel for a business going under, but the server setup could have been better from the get and the transition should have been smoother (send us the files and make a tweak to the program so they can be imported without the need for an antiquated server communication method)

Good timing! Ichi d just posted that he called a local APR dealer/shop and they were able to flash his boostedeuro TCU tune back to stock.

Sounds like you likely have an option. Also likely for a small(er) fee.

Thanks for the heads up

I have a couple lines in to shops/vendors and my local guy here who’s done some work for me happens to be the only APR dealer in my area.

Thanks for the help.

Yes they were able to flash the tcu back to stock I had to pay 75 Canadian dollars to do it tho. Not sure if the ecu is the same but its worth a call and shot.

USP got back to me and said they wouldn’t work on it but I’m still trying

Wow I'm so lucky that I got rid of EPL when I did. Sorry to whoever bought my tune.
