| Re: Why can't my car get Revo'd? Hi We are a REVO dealer in Essex. What car do you have? Has it been mapped/chipped before? Cheers Shaun. |

| Re: Why can't my car get Revo'd? Is it possible that you've had a REVO or APR trial on before?? I would suggest you ask a dealer to flash it was genuine Skoda code and try again.

| Re: Why can't my car get Revo'd? has it got an aftermarket radio or handsfree kit? as these can sometimes cause problems with communicating with the car? it sounds strange that it doesn't work on another car though,maybe theres a problem with the equipment used to map it |

| Site Sponsor | Re: Why can't my car get Revo'd? It's nothing to do with your car, the dealer was given a new style programmer with corrupt data on it so they couldn't flash anything. I've fixed this today and they'll get it back tomorrow! |

| Re: Why can't my car get Revo'd? It's good to hear that there is nothing wrong with the map or OBD remapping as such.
