Do they have much experience with MK6 GTIs? I'm thinking I might still drive to Accumoto in Madison and get mine done there, since they have been doing APR reflashes for quite a while.

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 05:43 PM

There is no real difference between a mkv and mkvi for a reflash. They hook a laptop up to the car and download it. Pat said he does on average 2 cars a week. I'm gonna have him do my k04 when I go that route. I was originally gonna try acumoto but could not get a hold of anyone there. If u leave near mke Chicago is closer then Madison for a tune. Trust me Kummrow knows his stuff. Tell him Garrett sent ya:)

mkvI's require bench flashed(ecu removed from car then flashed) as opposed to mkvs which are cable flashed.. from what I have heard anyway...

Yep, the ECU module has to be removed to do a flash on the MK6s. That's why I'd rather not be the first person it's tried on.

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 06:36 PM

Besides it coming out there is nothing 'different' in the actual flashing. It takes all of a few min to unplug and remove it from the car. Mkv's can be bench flashed too as I'm sure u know. If u have any mechanical knowledge it shouldn't be to tuff.

I don't have vag com but what's the problem?

GTi R Enigma · 12-05-2011, 06:37 PM

APR's suggested flash time, is 1-2 hours. Thats also if and I say "IF" their server is runnig without problems. I was a t shop who was doing this and they had a guy waiting 6 hours cause apr's site was down.

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 06:39 PM

Damn, both my flashes have never took more then 25 min. Enigma you familiar with audi's. Do their ecu's have to be pulled?

HeartMyVeedub · 12-05-2011, 06:44 PM

Mine took 3 hours. Cuz my cars a bitch

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 06:45 PM

Damn I guess some cars are just finicky.

GTi R Enigma · 12-05-2011, 06:46 PM

not that I have heard, but with the newer models I would not be suprised. VW/Audi kinda go hand in hand..lol

GTi R Enigma · 12-05-2011, 06:46 PM

personally my flash took like 2-30 minutes both times.

HeartMyVeedub · 12-05-2011, 06:53 PM

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 06:56 PM

GTi R Enigma · 12-05-2011, 06:58 PM

HeartMyVeedub · 12-05-2011, 07:00 PM

Ya. I'm actually pretty damn fortunate considering other's stories. Just when it comes to the ECU. She's a bitch

Kwiksilver07 · 12-05-2011, 07:02 PM

Well look at it positively, 600$ over 3hr is a better bang for your buck then 600$ for .5 an hour. Actually made em work for it a little.
