Scope and notes
Abrites ECU Programming Tool
Boot
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write

Bosch MED17.5.25; TC1782; Audi / Skoda / Seat / Volkswagen; PCB v4.2; manual variant, page 105

Abrites manual v4.2 describes reading and writing in Boot; compatible AVDI/Distribution Box equipment and authorizations are required. Match the exact connector/PCB variant. Do not extend coverage to other HW/SW versions or other modes.

AutoTuner
OBD
  • Virtual Read
  • Write

VAG 1.0/1.2/1.4 TSI/TFSI; supported HW/SW versions

Virtual read (VR) supplies a stock file, not a backup of a modified ECU. File availability depends on software identification.

AutoTuner
Bench
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write

VAG 1.0/1.2/1.4 TSI/TFSI; variants supported without additional unlock service

Connect through the ECU connector without opening its housing. Select the AutoTuner connection diagram after ECU identification.

AutoTuner
Boot
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write

VAG 1.0/1.2/1.4 TSI/TFSI; variants with a Boot protocol

Requires opening the ECU and PCB access using AutoTuner instructions. Abrites/EVC photos are not AutoTuner wiring instructions.

BitBox
Bench
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write
  • Checksum

FID 407; VAG; TC1782; Flash 2560 KB

Flash and EEPROM read/write through the ECU connector without opening. Checksum correction on writing. Requires Scanmatik SM2, SM2 Pro or SM3. FID 407 is not for cloning: protected OTP areas and skipped 0x10/0x20 sectors. Match the wiring to the exact ECU variant.

CMDFlash
Bench
  • Operations unspecified

Audi; Bosch MED17.5.25 TC1782; Bench compatibility listing

The list confirms Bench support. Check the exact ECU variant for the available operations.

EVC BSL100
Boot
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write

Bosch MED17.5.25; MED17.5.25; variant on the EVC ECU card

Variant and equipment per EVC ECU card: BSL131 / BSL132; BSL-ADP. BSL-ADP required. Boot requires the matching PCB connection and hardware variant.

FlexHistorical information
OBDBench
  • Operations unspecified

Audi A1 (8X) 1.0 TFSI CHZE, 82 HP, 2016; historical list 4.8.0.0

Historical compatibility from the 2020 list. Modes are listed without operation details. Check the current Flex version before use.

PCMflash
Bench
  • Read (type unspecified)
  • Write
  • Checksum

VAG 1.0/1.2/1.4 TSI/TFSI; TC1782; module 71

Module 71: ROM and EEPROM read/write, ROM checksum. Scanmatik 2/Pro/3 required. Bench pinout, pages 59: T94: +12V 3,87; GND 2; CAN-L 67; CAN-H 68. GPT: T60 21,7. Match the connector variant and pin-numbering orientation to the diagram.

PCMflash
OBD
  • Virtual Read
  • Write
  • Checksum

VAG 1.0/1.2/1.4 TSI/TFSI; UDS; module 48

Module 48, manual page 45: VR, write and checksum. VR is not a physical memory read.
