sorry bro, but im gonna throw this out there....

the company that sells these ecu's strips out the vin data as well as other information, making the ecu untracable to whatever car it came from.

they claim it is for the protection of whoever fixmyeuro.com gets it from as they are not an authorized uni dealer and do not "purchase" them.

you see the company claims they commonly get customers that come in because they cant pass emissions, and then put the cars back to stock when they have deletes and resistors, and then sell the uni ecus, after stripping the info off not only the cover of the ecu, but electronically deleting the memory of any vin data.
they then sell it for the customer.
fine and dandy right?

sort of...

you will not know what deletes come with the ecu. the company will say its all deleted, but it is a crap shoot, may be some deletes, may be none. you have no idea what the tune calls for as far as cams, throttle, VVT, etc. NO IDEA.

furthermore, the company will NOT tell you who the original buyer was, making you contact unitronic to try and find out.

uni will tell you this company is suspect, at best, and they believe he is cloning software. he will fight and tell you uni is garbage, and they just dont know how to tune ecu's.

uni does not have a real way to know if the software is authentic, without knowing the vin or the person who origonally bought it.

so you end up with a tune that you do not know for sure if it is authentic, no idea on the specifics of the tune, and NOBODY to help you out.

Updates and changes to the tune? good luck.

how do i know this all? obviously i bought one of these ecus from the same company.

I asked him who owned it before, and he got VERY defensive, and told me he would not tell me. after he cooled off, he told me a guys name, who i believe coincidentally was also from oregon??? can't remember for sure. anyways, i call unitronic and they have no record of that guy ever buying a tune. so i call back and he then gives me another name to try. no dice, uni never heard of him. the guy then tells me im SOL.

i beg uni to help me out, and they tell me to send in the ecu, and they will do what they can....

uni has been helping me out. PM me for more.

sorry buddy, but i hate this to happen to others....
it is BS if you know this and just want to pass on the headache to someone else without telling them.

And if Jack Shapiro, owner of that company, who i believe is a sponsor here tries to shut me up, threaten me or the like.....just don't. i am well within my rights to say all this. i am also an intellectual property attorney.

(edited for a mispelling) im sure there are more

I just ran this for a while with all my emissions stuff resistored the file doesnt appear to have any deletes. I thought it was odd that the vin wasnt displayed in Vag-com. This is also a MAF file. It ran good, but I am moving to standalone. Thanks for the info.

Actually that is stretch from the truth.
The unit was represented just as described.
Names were given to you, even after what we stated this was clearly not part of the auction.
We called the customers and got approval, and that is all we can do.
We even gave you names of other customers, which we know are authentic customers.
We contacted Unitronic on your behalf, to try and clear up the matter.
We offered Unitronic to repurchase all of those ecu's as a package price, they have never responded.
We contacted Unitronic about registering the ecu's, so they could be transfered, or upgraded for a fee, which we could also profit on. They have never done anything to fix the issue or come to the table to make an arrangement. I have made it clear from the beginning and here now that I am willing to do that.

I don't need to clone them, that would just bring the value of these down, so I don't think so.

We don't agree with the way they tune this is clear, a matter of opinion. The ecu's clearly don't pass smog here in NY, which is why they get removed.

We have also seen mismatched VIN #s from Unitronic chipped ecu's causing other DMV issues.

The fact that they wouldn't do anything for you," telling you sorry," is just their way of dealing with you. Not the way we sold you an item.
The fact that Unitronic handled it the way they did, is why we have made it very clear that we are not going to help people with support for a product we can't very well support.
Its a waste of our time.

Did you know that most of the Unitronic ecu's are taken out also due to poor solder joints, leaving customers on the side of the road?
Ecu's are stripped of crappy soldered sockets, VIN/IMMO and labeled for off road use internally, in place of VIN/IMMO. Pretty straight forward.

We offer data transfer services for all ecu's, for all tuners, not just Unitronic's.
We are careful to not put dual identities out, tuners or VIN's.

[speed51133!]

Actually what I said was spot on truth.
Plus you sold me an Ecu that was supposed to be emissions free. It is not. It was only cat free. Sai and egr was still coded in.

As to crappy solder joints UNi bech flashes...

[speed51133!]

Oh and the names you provided me were just random names from random people who you removed Ecus from. And i believe one of them was not the original buyer so it did not even help. You told me so. No surprise unitronic did not have any of them in thier database for registered buyers of the tune.

Bottom line was it was not totally emissions free and i had no idea of this when buying.

[Jack@European Parts]

We have never sold an ecu listed on ebay for all the emission devices deleted, or represented that way, so you are not telling the truth.

The names you were given, where the names of the respective owners, and when one couldn't be authenticated, we gave you two more, just to see where the conversation would go with Unitronic.

The fact that you are trying to be argumentative here is suspect.
You are just trying to forge some type of path which leads no where.

We tell everyone the same thing. They must verify on there own the code and that pretty much all the ecu's we take out are deleted, with something, or many things and why they are removed.

1.8T's don't have an EGR.
You are not being truthful.


Quite the contrary we have seen many Unitronic ecu's with Dimsport socketed modules.
or
Very poor solder jobs.
Which we remove.

[speed51133!]

Whatever jack. The fact is you sold an Ecu that you said had emissions deleted. It did not have the emissions deleted. It had the cat deleted.

Egr Sai whatever... It did not have all the deletes. That is the truth.
You never said if these can be registered with unitronic down the road. Turns out they can't be e cause you delete the vin data off the Ecu preventing unitronic from verifying if they are cloned. It also prevents the buyer from knowing all the specifics of the tune like cams, throttle, intake, exhaust, rods, vvt, etc. Why do you do that? What purpose does this serve? You keep saying to protect your customer. Do you really think the customer cares if his vin is known in an Ecu that is sold?

[Jack@European Parts]

Again the post never stated that, nor do I state that, so you are being disingenuous.

Actually customers do care if their VIN # is displayed in another car.
The DMV/NASTF/OEM isn't to happy about either.
I care that a improper VIN is not displayed, in another car, and that the ecu is tagged properly for off road use internally.

See, I'm not trying to get a car to pass SMOG illegally. I'm returning them to proper road use.
We make them for sale and try to get some coins back for the customer, and our time.
We make it clear, it is up to you to determine the config.

You said SAI while also saying EGR, so it wasn't, "what ever."

I think the difference between readiness monitors being set to ready verse the actual components being deleted is a different matter.

We make it clear what we are selling and that the information is limited.

Why are you on a mission to moline me, when everything was done to not only help you, but actually was represented accurately to you?

I'm done engaging you here.

For a lawyer I would of expected better.
Good day sir.

[speed51133!]

Why do you bring up readiness?
I do not.
You did in fact tell me the emissions were deleted.
They were not and i was totally unable to verify what was and what was not.
Then unitronic tells me they can't not even verify it is a unitronic tune.

For a paying advertiser, I would expect more. A good day to YOU.
