Cobb, I was messing around with my V3 AP for my 15 WRX and somehow I cleared out the default data log parameters by mistake. How do I return it to the point it was where it provided all the most imp fields when I view my logs. I have the screen broke down into 6 windows with the items I want to see when I am monitoring but how do I get the original datalog parameters that came default. Do I have to unmarry and then remarry for this?
hi COBB, just a couple of question.. 1. do i really need to plug my accessport into a computer after i do the accessport install? 2. is it important and recomended that I always update my accessport from the computer and then re-install it into my car? 3. and does the accessport save my stock ecu into the computer? so if i accidently lose my accessport -- can I easily use my saved ecu from my computer and re-install it back into my car? thank you!
Hey guys at cobb, what if the car has an unmarried accessport, and the accesport is long gone from the previous owner! I want to get one to tune my car but idk if I install a new one will damage my car!
When uninstalling can you removed the obd cable or you have to drive it before removing the cable from the obd ? I having an issue that i cant get my car to start when i uninstalling it and disconnected my obd cable.
When you install the new oem program, I viod my factory warranty. If I reinstall factory program do I get my warranty back or I lose my warranty not matter what?
So I have stage2+big SF intake 2016 wrx. And I wanna plug my accessport to my accessport manager to see data log. My question is after I uninstall my accessport and want to install back to my car, do I have to select the stage2+big SF intake again?
How long can this take? I've been trying to uninstall from my 2011 Mazdaspeed3, and sits in the " please verify that the ignition etc.." for over an hour.... I have a battery charger connected, but it never changes from that one screen.
Looking to buy a used unmarried access port. Now if I install this on my car will it delete my current tune? I was told the car was tuned through tactrix cable previously. Thanks
Typically yes, if the car has a tune flashed to the ECU. Installing an Accessport will delete the previous tune. In some cases depending on what software was used and how it IDs. The Accessport can potentially save the previous tune as the "stock tune" meaning it would revert to that if the Accessport is uninstalled. But we cannot assume that and is not always true, so unles you have a backup, consider it likely that its gone.
If I currently have a Eurodyne tune and bought AP (Which I have) is there anyway to save my eurodyne tune on AP or use AP without using OTS Tune they provide. I plan on dyno tuning the car and Eurodyne OTS are stronger than Cobb
hi, is the SFintake+stage1 91ACN already installed into this V3 accessport? or would i need a computer to download it first before i get started with this install? thank you. i have a 2008 wrx hatchback. thanks a bunch!
You can't. You need to send it to Cobb and they will change a part of some sort inside to work on a different vehicle model. And yes you have to pay, after unmarrying the car it won't work on other make and model vehicles.
The accessport I have goes to my car I checked the product and serial numbers but, it keeps saying install. Eve time it loads for 20 mins then tells me to turn car off then it just goes back to install
Did you have to do anything to get the factory tune to download? or does the AP do that automatically the first time you put an AP tune on? Lets say I have a tune, but need to revert back to the factory tune, once I revert back to factory on the car, is the factory tune still on the AP?? If I went BACK to the AP tune, would the AP need to re-download the factory tune?
Let’s say I had a car that was previously tuned and still runs that same tune. If I plug a new accessport in it and let’s say I uninstall it, will it keep the turn I had on before or will it go back to factory tune?
Hello, You won't be able to uninstall the Accessport as the first step. There are a few cases (old Subarus with tunes written with certain ways) where the Accessport may think what is there is your factory tune, save it, allow you to install, and then place that tune back on the ECU when you uninstall it, but it's not highly likely. The only way to know for sure is to attempt the install. If the Accessport tells you a previous tune is detected and will be overwritten if you install it, then that is what would happen and the tune would be lost. If not, it would save that file as your factory ECU data. Kyle@COBB
Hey so I tried uninstalling and I got to about 12% and then my car said my connectors have to be connected and it stopped but when I checked they were still connected so I tried multiple times again to start uninstalling but it kept saying my connectors weren't connected. And now when I try starting my car it won't start at all. By the way it's a 2006 wrx
When you uninstall the AP, does it reflash it to factory with a map that's on it or does it just revert it to the tune you had prior to installing it? My sti was dyno tuned before I bought it so I'm wondering if it'll go back to that tune or not.
@@guitargeometry I didn't have any issues at all installing it. Looks like after i uninstalled it, the ecu went back to the previous dyno tune. Looks like it captures the current tune to put it back on the ecu after it's uninstalled. Both installing and uninstalling were super easy though
@@leland5519 bought a stage 2 2006 Subaru wrx last month (at the time I only thought it had a catback exhaust and a bigger Intercooler). Took it to my brother in laws mechanic and found out there was a stage 2 custom pro tune I guess that is still running on the ecu. If I get an access port would it get rid of the tune is has right now?
@@shinobu3817 To my knowledge yes. In order to just use the Accessport, you actually have to flash one of their maps onto the ecu which is going to replace that protune. Unfortunately you aren't able to just plug the Accessport in and start using it as a gauge cluster or diagnostic reader. It needs to be married to the car which reflashes the ecu and puts one of the OTS maps on it. If you knew who protuned it you can try to reach out to them and see how much it would cost to get the file over to you so you can load it onto the accessport, then marry the accessport to your ecu with that tune. However, if you don't know who tuned it and you want an Accessport, the only option is to retune the car. Whether that be a new protune or the ots map from cobb, you're current tune would go away until you unmarried the accessport from your ecu.
@@leland5519 okay so if I buy my own access port, in order to use it I'd have to unmarry the previous owners access port that holds the tune on my ECU?
What if I got the accessport with a pro tune in it, now I installed the pro tune and say I have to uninstall the pro tune. Will the pro tune be saved in the accessport? Probably a dumb question😅
A question I bought a subaru 2011 wrx the accessport came but it did not come installed I wanted to install it but give it this code 1015 I do not know if you could help me?
So my car is saying that I already have a tune and if I continue it will ease it I'm getting the car freshly tuned at the end of the month but in the meantime what do I do?
Ive just bought my very first COBB APv3 last friday for my 2015 WRX (base) and installed it with the stage 1, 91 octane MAP but the DAM reading is keeps going under 1.00 even after reseting the ECU and doing some minor checks to holes and sensor for fuel/gas. I live in alaska so the highest octane we get is 90. Is this the reason for the miss reading?
I have a 2020 sti, if I get an access port and do a stage 1 map then uninstall back to factory like he did in this video when taking it in for service, they shouldn't notice that there was a tune? correct? I'm worried about voiding warranty.
snwboardr1987 when you uninstall your accessport it reflashes your ECU and it goes back to the exact factory tune it had before you installed your accessport. Which means indeed they will not know. Like I said before I do this every time I go into service. They don’t know and there’s no way of them knowing.
How would they know that you are running Accessport? You don't need to connect it after you flashed with the Accessport right? Put the Accessport away and bring it back after your visit to the dealer?
Andrew Yi You’re partly right. Once you’ve flashed you don’t need the Accessport. However, when you take your car in to service they can plug into the vehicles OBDII port. If your car is running a tune they will see it, they’re systems are designed to detect tunes and recognize genuine “Subaru Factory Tune” this is why it’s so important to uninstall before going in. The car will reflash to the factory tune and when Subaru plugs in weather it be for diagnostics or just to make sure everything is well with your car nothing will flag. The process of uninstalling and reinstalling after every service is tedious but worth it. Once Subaru flags you for a tune they can note it on their national registry, this means that no matter what dealership you go to in the country they will see this and can refuse warranty service to you.
Here's my problem, the previous owner had it protuned and didn't sell me his AP, now i have a brand new AP and I can't customize my tune because its not install on my AP. Now i'm stuck on the install screen and if i install one of your tunes, my car won't run right because I have other brand parts.
Sorry for the confusion with the last reply. The likelihood of a tuner being willing to re-save an old map to a new Accessport serial number is very low. The best solution here would be to have the car re-tuned by a Protuner as installing your new Accessport onto the ECU will overwrite the existing tune without the ability to save it. - Marshall@COBB

Can you un marry the ap and keep your tune or does it have to go back to factory settings
Goes back factory settings
Does it revert back to whatever map was on the car when it backed it up?
What happens if there a new update, how do you get it onto the car? Uninstall, and reinstall?

Will a dealership be able to see that it was tuned, after Uninstalling?

You don't want to tell the dealer what was done. As long as no footprints are left and you don't mention it your warranty will be intact.
My question is updating your Accessport. Keeps giving me annoying updating errors telling me to try a new USB port or device. Why is this happening?
So I have stage2+big SF intake 2016 wrx. And I wanna plug my accessport to my accessport manager to see data log. My question is after I uninstall my accessport and want to install back to my car, do I have to select the stage2+big SF intake again?
Noon question.
Can you uninstall the access port if you have the ECU it was married too?

play with the plug that goes into the car, i have to hold mine in a weird position for it to work :P (mazdaspeed 2012)

is there over run tuning capability for a little more burble?
