How long does it take to flash my ECU?
The writing speed is dependent on a number of factors. The way we write to the car it goes as fast as the ECU/Gateway will allow. We have always put stability over speed but fortunately with the final closed beta developments we made a huge improvement in terms of flash success rate (we have yet to see a single failed flash due to response times since this was implemented).
A rough example of flash times for the supported ECUs are listed below. The final time can vary between car models which use the same ECU type.
| EDC17CP14 |
20 minutes (2mb), 40 minutes (4mb) |
| EDC17C46 | 15 minutes (some models with newer gateways are faster) |
| EDC17C64 | 8 minutes |
| EDC17C74 | 8 minutes |
| EDC17CP44 | 20 minutes (longer/double in dual ECU vehicles) |
| EDC17CP54 | 15 minutes |
For your first time using the application we would always recommend that you allow more time than you need.
