Can I use bluefin on a different car?
« on: 04 March 2014, 20:04 »
Back in 2008 I bought a superchips bluefin for my DSG Scirocco and it was great. Five cars later and I now have a manual 2009 GTI, I've still got my bluefin with the superchips map on it so just wondered if by any chance I may be able to plug n play with the golf?

I emailed superchips last week but haven't had a reply as yet, the suspense is killing me!

Fairly sure you can reset the handset and use it on your current car  :smiley:

Oh great stuff, cheers!

I'm guessing it's too much to hope for that I can also use the same map!?   :grin:

If they do it properly then it will be written based on your original software in your current car  :wink:

That and Superchips tend to have a habit of sending people the wrong map for DSG and manual and vice versa.......

Very interesting!  :smiley:

I'm guessing that people who mistakenly receive the wrong map don't have a problem?

No they DO have a problem hence why it needs to be correct

Not sure why as the engine is no different.........
