Vag com faults after remap

[CocoPops]

Basically, the CanBus doesn't know how to interpet the flash, so with most maps you will get at least one error at time of flash.
Once cleared, it should be fine.

yeh, most faults were related to things that were working whilst i was flashing too

im going to see how the bluefin goes, then again

It is quite normal to get some codes when flashing, it's not a problem and they should just clear off, if you are using BF and don't have VAG-COM then you'll just have to live with that I think.

Those of you with BF - Has anyone been keeping an eye on your flash counter?

i thought that bluefin resets the flash counter now? although i dont see why you would keep swapping maps unless you were taking it for a service, so it shouldn't really make much difference.

yeh, if i had thought i could have used the fault finder on the bluefin, anyway all good now, just when i originally mapped the car i didnt have vag com and only got it after i had installed the sat nav so i probably attributed all the faults to the install of tha nav (wrongly of course  )

cheers Stu and coco

That's what they told me when I spoke to them ..... it didn't used to do it but does now.  Apparently every time you reflash the ECU it applies a '-1' to the flash counter so effectively remains as it was to prying eyes.
