Plus are trying to charge me to unlock it and won’t send the file to the new shop.. it’s on the other side of Victoria to where my car is mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea how much it roughly costs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nochil New Member 7 Member For: 3y 8m 15d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne, Victoria Posted 03/08/20 12:00 PM Author Share Posted 03/08/20 12:00 PM Yeah my tuner said he had seen it once before. But that shop who had done it sent them a file that could be accessed with HPT. its a very strange situation. I’ve made a post on Club FG to see if anyone has had it happen before. Hopefully I’ll find more help here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go see an experienced Turbo falcon workshop for a start !!! scrambled Strategy is X3 protocol, simple to get around if your workshop knows the falcon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
