    My Octavia is a March 2009 build but apparently the encryption can be loaded onto the ECU at any stage by the dealer.
    I got my Bluefin device from the AUS distributor and he said I would get a full refund if the download didn't work 1st time and I returned the device within x days (I cannot remember how long it was now but enough to do troubleshooting with it). Cheers

    Maybe have a look at this site Skoda Diesel Tuning - it has a new module that increases output from the stock 125kw / 350nm to 155kw / 443nm. It requires a little playing under the bonnet so if that's not your thing. Has anyone heard any problems with these piggy back systems??

    I see the remap as kinder to the engine, if you have to have it.

    Ocy, Give Dean at Volkspower a call, he has remapped several new Occy TDI RS's & has the tool on the shelf there.

    He can even arrange for a test drive in one before you buy.

    A quick up date. Blufin UK open for business at 8AM and I was on the phone at 8:01 and have been on it for about 35 minutes. Bugger email I just wanted to sort the problem and we would have been there all week. We finally got the file out of the car but no one can tell me why it refused before. The only difference was and don't laugh, none of the doors were open and no one was in the car, I doubt it was the difference but who knows. We had at least four attempts before and all got the same error. Anyway that was ok now to upload it and we got a server error, that means London right? Wrong it means the drivers were not installed in the computer and after trying most of the ports and several re-installs of the drivers we finally had success. If we had of done it by email I would have been on the OAP by the time it would have been finished. So no, the port isn't blocked and now I have to wait until they clear the backlog from over the holiday period. Nothing like a quicker motor car to make me happy.

    Yep I got the server error the 1st time I connected to Superchips and ended up emailing the file thru. I got mine back the next morning. It'll be interesting to see what you think once the tune is on. Cheers

    No go, not happy Jan!! Bugger!!! I was told tonight by Blufin that this car is not tunable by them so back it goes. Nothing gives me the s**ts and this is the closest thing to nothing I have seen in a long time. What are the options now? Oettinger can do it by sending the unit to them, any others?
