Took the time to google the codes and apparently the radiator shutter codes are a glitch about a part our cars don’t even have and the DTC codes are because I lowered my car recently.
Finally got my Thor dongle in and flashed to stage 3. The shifting is incredibly fast, similar to a dct. I did have a check engine light on after flashing and have these codes, not sure if any of these codes were there prior to the flash. I’ve cleared them numerous times but they keep coming...
You’ll just unplug the JB4 and plug whatever dongle you choose to use that is compatible with XHP into the obd port to flash. After you’re done flashing, plug your JB4 back in. JB4 “tricks” the ECU (engine control unit), this flash is for the TCU (transmission control unit). They’re two...
It’s two separate systems. MHD flashing changes your ECU (engine control) while XHP changes your TCU (transmission control). There may however be tuners in the future that will be able to do custom maps for your ecu and tcu, to make them pair together more efficiently.
As far as them working...
Did you specify it was for the Supra? XHPs website has an interactive connection page and is only showing either the orange mhd dongle or pink Thor dongle are the only ones working right now
I just ordered the Thor dongle. I tried reaching out to see if anybody locally had one of the dongles that work with it but had no luck. This’ll be the third dongle I own now (one for ecutek and one for BimmerCode)
You must be a post 2020 owner. There is currently a resource for you available that involves you sending your ecu to Russia (or is it Finland now) so that you can tune. From my understanding it is pretty expensive but appears to be your only option right now. @zrk has a great link he can share...
https://www.xhpflashtool.com/blog/how_mapping_a_transmission_works/ , this link kind of explains what you’d get out of it. The big thing I’m excited for is tuner will be able to customize launch control and tune the transmission which should help it push a little further.
Obviously every state is different and every department is different. My department has a written policy against accepting gifts so that it cannot be viewed as a bribe.
Personally while I appreciate the fact that you may have a blue line sticker or be a military vet (as am I) I could care less...
I know there was one of these previously posted but this video is new so I wanted to bring the topic back up. I use Liqui Moly SAE 5W-30 Special Tec (ordered from: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-oil-change-kit-5w-30-liqui-moly-11428583898-lm) for my oil changes and do it every 5k miles.
