It's likely similar to FCA's w84 recalls on the 2.4 multi air/ tigersharks. ECU basicly pulls vacuum more than it should causing oil vapor to be burned off. My vehicle only goes through one quart every 2000 miles. But I have seen a couple puffs of blue smoke while my wife drives the vehicle...

alternatively you can just slip on any ebay aftermarket tips for BMW M3 or M4 series. So long as the gap for the tab is in the right place. These are a VERY slightly smaller OD than the OEM tips. About $120 for the pair.

>Breaks ECU encryption >Can't encrypt process *SEEMS LEGIT*

I use royal purple MAX Boost. It boosts the octane rating by about 3 so 92 becomes somewhere in the ballpark of 93-95. Which is good enough to run map 3. Usually I'll pour in a bottle on 1/4 tank and immediately fill, and if I've been running without the additive I'll drive for 5-10 minutes...

There are also a few used ECUs out on ebay right now for like 800 bucks.

Agreed. Although I would say it's devolved into worse. Can we get back to the topic at hand? Maybe just news and discussion of cracking the ECUs of post 6/20? Otherwise there are plenty of other venues to compare ego sizes.

Uh. Dude. Every new car has issues like this. The wrangler JLs had broken frame welds. The WK2 jeeps have had multiple PCM update recalls. Toyota and GM had cars that would accelerate their owners into the afterlife. Not to mention ALL of the Takada airbag recalls in which manufacturers...

Everything's alot better than they were in the past. That's called technological progress. Everyone running around spouting "my car is better because (x), and you should feel bad for liking something that contrdicts my opinion." That's called being toxic. At the end of the day I drive a BMW...

I'm kinda tempted to just call them up and ask. I've got some history with diablosport. I beta tested their tunes for the latest gen SHO's. Like... a bosch ecu is a bosch ecu. At the very least they must be preparing for similar security to roll out across all ECUs for new model years. Might...

I mean...save for the GT4 they're all bosch ECUs. The security in mopars units has been relatively more secure than the rest of their units per FCAs request for some time. It's mind-blowing to me that nobody has even bothered to ASK those tuners for advise. Seems pretty juvenile.

So you're saying a company that produces OEM parts for MOPAR/FCA proper, put a custom ECU in the GT4 Supra? AND IT WORKS? HEY MAYBE SOMEONE SHOULD ASK AROUND WITH TUNERS THAT SUCCESSFULLY CRACKED THE NEWER MOPAR ECUS? LIKE I'VE BEEN SAYING? ?

What it really comes down to at this point is somebody as a tune provider needs to get in contact with Toyota about licensing out unlock keys.

I mean everyone here is also making comments like OEM Audi and BMW tuners are going to get access first.... let's not forget toyota also has an aftermarket performance division. I don't think they're gonna just sit idly by and watch their customers foam at the mouths to spend money. What's more...

Eh... look at it this way... Worst case scenario you're just gonna be forced to milk out the factory warrenty. So by the time it's cracked we will just have a much better idea of where the weak points are.

I haven't heard that term since high-school. Please remove yourself from my presence. I am offended by your mere existence XD. But nah I have a few bitcoin miners from a few years back that are now obsolete... kinda just sitting in a closet. BTC is also a SHA256 algorithm. So if we can...

FCA has been using this style of encryption for years btw. The WiTech program literally says verifying block chain during factory updates and ecu recalls. Diablosport has been bench unlocking those same ECUs for years as well.

So... its a block chain/ proof of work style encryption on an ASIC chip? I have about 3 T-hash of useless SHA256 miners if anyone wants to write an algorithm mining pool for me to point them at.

Here's the thing... WOT switch would have to be somehow tapped into the DME or throttle pedal because of how the B58 controls throttle... the throttlebody does nothing in our cars. It's all the way open 99% of the time. Throttle is actually controlled by lift and duration of the intake valves...

While likely expensive beyond reason. This also means it's possible to reverse engineer and manufacture the older DME's internals to work on our newer vehicles. Worst case scenario. We can have core DME swaps with modified/retrofit units.

Well on the bright side hopefully someone now has a locked DME that they can go full ham on the crack process without worry of Bricking a customer's car.
