The best will probably be to take manual AHC file but copy map values in it from ABZ file.

I fell victim to Nollywood/Siena's poor technical advice as well. He doesn't have a positive reputation on forums here in the states, but I found that out far too late. I guess I'm just lucky I didn't take him up on his offer to sell me a matching ECU and immo from an S8, but that's simply because I found one of the ECUs he mentioned for sale by A8 Parts on ebay.co.uk for a lot less money than he was asking.
But either way, I am stuck with a stock US version pf A8 ECU and a pf euro S8 ECU that cannot be simply coded into working with a manual transmission. I'd like to get the 1997 (C4 chassis) S6 Plus file written to a chip and have one of these ECUs socketed to try the chip out. I have the file, just no real way of programming it to the PLC44 as mentioned earlier in this thread. In the meantime, I am trying to find a damos or definition file for any of the Motronic M5.41 or M5.42 ECUs from 32v 4.2s and see if I can't re-write the ABZ code to work with a manual. But even then, I will have a file but no way of writing it to a chip... And there's no way in hell I'm paying 034MS $550 USD for it, either! |
