I'm out another 50 bucks in shipping costs and it's been months with my car just sitting gathering dust. My tuner won't respond so I gave up looking for help there. After dropping over 7k in a motor build this year it's really aggravating. So do I try and send my ecu back to Cobb again or do I say screw it and find another ecu. Any suggestions?
Sorry to hear that man, that's awful!
I'll offer to try to SHboot it for you, gratis. If I can't boot it I'll forward it to Cobb. I would still recommend picking up a spare one to get your car running and to hedge against a hardware issue in the ecu (seems likely). It's also a nice thing to have just in case your car/laptop battery dies during a flash, or some other accident.
Check car-part.com for spares near you, and send me an email if you want me to check it out.
