Iv been looking at a local company that sell Galletto 1260 and the map file for 1.8t agu golf and its a goo price.
Does anyone have any experience of these and the ,aps and are they any good?

Not a bad tool, I can do what it says but has no recovery function of a flash fails, which mean another tool or method would be needed to fix the ecu.
And it don't cover the agu ecu sorry to say, ARZ AUM and AUQ only.

Arghhhhhhhhh cack...lol
Dont supose you guys at r-tech do a mobile service in wiltshire?
Iv spoken to a local company and they do the REVO but at a staggering £299 which means it would be cheaper for me to drive to hinkly and see you guys in person....

Hi Gavin,
About the company that is selling the tool and the map it's hard to gauge how good the tool and map is without knowing who they are, have you researched them on the internet?
May I also ask how good is this good price they have offered you?
Regards
Craig

I will get ben to contact you in the morning :-)
If it's a good company your after then the best way to find out is use google and search for genuine feedback, don't get caught up with fake feedback... Lol

Amongst the professional mobile tuning tools I use in my kitbag, I have to admit to having a 1260 in there too.. useful for when you just want to flash a file and are confident if things don't go to plan. Not for the faint hearted if you have to do a recovery though.
Is your AGU cable throttle?

I gave mine away a few years back :-( it was the fastest tool I have ever used, 1 min right edc15 vag and 34sec on edc15c12.
All the 1.8t 20v AGUs came with cable, the rest of the mk4 range are all me7 drive by wire.

Lol paying for it? Just hope the duck dont find this method.
We keep getting phone calls from online marketing companies stating the can get the best google rankings and customer review profile...... I wish they would stop calling.

Back to the topic at hand, it is possible to flash the AGU's with a 'cheap' tool such as the MPPS (my personal favourite from the cheap toolbag)
You just need to give one of the pins a 12v supply (I think pin 13 from memory) but of course I'm sure Nick already knew that :smug:

IMO mpps best vag tool for the price, it will flash a agu in 2mins about the same amount of time it took to get the wipers off with the old method. :-). I know the tool developer very well, same guy who produced the original KWP2000.

The price they where selling it for was £20 for the tool plus 75 for the map file, however as r-tech said and the guy from the company just confirmed it will not work with the AGU so grrrrr
He went on to expalin if i removed my ecu, opened it up, de-souldered the chip it could then be done....but sod that..lol

20 quid for a mapping tool, feck me those things are cheap.
Not so easy that desoldering without the correct kit and training.
Your always better going to a tuner rather than doing it your self and hoping to get good results at 95 quid your already half way there (ish) to having a map from any of the GTIforums traders :wink:
-
Dont try and lift the chip get it wong and the PCB will also peel up with the chip and render the ecu as a door stop. :undecided:

Wel im a motorbike technicain and tuner and also do alarm repairs and installs on bikes, but im not even going to attemp to remove the chip. Im looking for the remap without having to do anything more than plug it in and hey presto...lol
-
Gav that tool is likely to be a clone tool at that price (illegal clone in fact).
Anyways de-soldering the chip is one way of doing it but you'll need a chip flasher - if you can send us the ECU instead, we can tune and return for £150 inc return postage.
