It's funny how often new laws result in unintended side effects which the legislators had failed to foresee.Welcome to Rennteam: Cars and Coffee. The new flash rom loading & tuning software that aftermarket companies are now just starting to come out with are a result of this law.I think you'll find that auto manufacturers are only required to enable non-franchised shops to service products, including enabling access to diagnostics.This is far from being the same thing as 'supporting chip tuning', as anyone will find who tries to have his chip-tuned engine repaired under manufacturer's warrenty after it has tried to digest its own valve train.'The new flash rom loading & tuning software that aftermarket companies are now just starting to come out with (as) a result of this law' are just an unintended side-effect of the new legislation. Automotive manufacturers are required by law to support aftermarket chip tuning. If this happens, EVERY modded software can be detected and even piggyback device doesn't help.A Mercedes mechanic told me that they plan to introduce a system where the diagnosis is done completely by a factory system as soon as the car's black box is connected to a router at the dealership which sends out the data to the factory system and communicates with it in real-time.This would make chip-tuning like playing russian roulette.Unless you are living in the USA where the government has mandated that all MY2004 cars be in compliance with SAE J2534. Easier and faster diagnosis and of course.BAD times for chip mods.To Ron: I've been told that a specific diagnosis printout can identify a modded software, the dealer usually can't see it directly in the Piwis.With a broken engine or broken gearbox, Porsche always asks for a printout and they might even send a Porsche rep to the dealer.
