- Опубликовано: 21 июл 2024
- The Volkswagen Virtus is probably one of the hottest cars on the market right now with many enthusiasts being hyped for the tuning potential! Except, there is one problem, you cannot tune the VW Virtus, yet. The VW Virtus along with its siblings, the Skoda Slavia, VW Taigun and Skoda Kushaq all have a "locked" ECU from the factory. This is true for both of the engines, the 1.0L TSI and the 1.5 TSI. Watch the video to know more about this situation!

To kiya
NEW VIRTUS 1.5 and Taigun Have cylinder cut technology which prevent from tuning it cause tuning that thing will mess with engine
Dont fool by saying reasearch instead EARNINGS... 😂😂😂
don’t be stupid 1.5 engine have tuning options that can boost upto 180 bhp
Brother we got the tune 💪💪💪💪, time to celebrate 🎉🎉🎉
This was a similar situation for the Nissan Gtr. When the r35 was launched in 2006 like that. Nissan themselves said that "It's a most secure ecu ever and no one car Crack it." Look now, everyone r35 out on the road are somewhat tuned.
Why need to tune ECU?
Just add piggyback ecu override same as "racedynamic dieseltronic"
You couldn’t change the wheels on the gtr at first, now rarely are they left stock. It’s just a matter of waiting
I think code6 broke the ECU of 1.0 TSI. This is as per an ad I saw in social media.
Yeah that's true
Yes, you are right.
Yes Absolutely true
They mention it 1 minute into the video
Yes just saw on Aarav Sethi channel. He has got his Kushaq 1.0 MT tuned by code 6

1. ECU and ECM though different terms mean the same thing! ECU stands for 'Engine Control Unit' whereas ECM stands for Engine Control Module.
2. TCM and BCM are two different modules. TCM stands for 'Transmission Control Module' and controls how your transmission works, whereas the BCM stands for 'Body Control MOdule' and controls the electronics installed on your car body, wipers, signal lights, central door locking, power windows and so on.
To tune the car you have to unlock the ECU/ECM as it is through ECU that you can flash custom maps for your engine, again for which you need the stock map.
Every module has its own security key. To remap the engine you need security key for the engine/ecu and to unlock other modules, you need security key for the respective models.
love u guys...make indias tuner culture strong and better...keep growing and keep going.
big fan
The 1.5 ECU has also been unlocked. Harmonix is developing a tune and should be out by March.
Are u sure bro?
@@bobtheminion3749nah bro
Cmd has unlocked. If you want a tune for it today hit up superchips etuners or any major brands.
Lmao that's fast asf
What year are we talking? Revo unlocked the DADA variant of the engine but I haven't found any DPCA remaps yet (meaning the newer years). Revo is currently in the testing phase for the latter. There's no commercial flash tool for the 2022 1.5tsi as far as I know and as per several tuning companies I've asked. Do you have any info who unlocked it?
Wow! This is the best car video I’ve seen on RUclips. The information is so so so useful that I’m going to use it daily while driving. Driving enthusiasts really dig the ECU access software, real driving is not that much fun for them.
Recently came across your channel and surprised with great great knowledge 👍👍 keep it up
Great knowledge guys!! its a real joy to see such passion for such enthusiast oriented machines!!
Thx for sharing such info plz make more videos on bimmers and mercs as well ..also you guys have literally left the luxury saloon segment…plz itz a request.❤
Loved this video. Want many more of such informative and educative videos please
hye, first video i watched of you guys, really liked the fornat too, gonna binge watch every other video now for a couple of hours
Love the new format of videos
Best thing I can suggeet for die hard Car enthusiasts. Do an Engine Swap. I am planning to engine swap my Civic gen 10 1.8l zx CVT to K20A FDR2 soon. Although you have to spend alot but common the results are going to be very satisfying
loved this new type of sit-down informative approach to a video, great food for thought
love this type of knowledge being shared
Even Wolf Moto Performance from Bengaluru has tuned a slavia a few days ago, nevertheless loved the video!
Correct.. Engineering exponent also tuned a 1.5 cc Kushaq
@@rajshekharrajkhowa7477 Engineering exponent and wolf are same.
Yes..
@@rajshekharrajkhowa7477 Even 2022/3 models? The ECU version after 06/2021 has not been unlocked yet as far as I know
Would love to see why torque converter gearboxes are not TCU tunable
u guys are so under rated
We loved this video absolutely bonkers!
nice and interesting topic.....keep the good work done....
Keep uploading these educational videos once in a week😀
Basic question to ask here is this, do you really want to tune a fwd setup vehicle? let alone a turbocharged one?
i'm waiting for this exact video
Which type of tune is available for Skoda Rapid 1.0 tsi manual?
Can you please share details regarding..!
Just a general question: Is there any map available for xuv300 1.2 petrol by any of the tuners?
What if one were to remove the stock ecu & add a stand-alone ecu??
Thank goodness I found you guys. I was looking for some better options than so called hyped up pseudo suv market. You guys tune cars as well or just sell them?
We can suggest you some great tuners in you area but we only sell cars via TDH Classifieds for the time being!
Came here again to spread the news….the ecu has been unlocked by couple of tuners in our country, yaay for people like us❤🎉
You guys are killing it! ❤️
I love watching other people tune their cars but for my Polo GT 1.0 TSI, I like to keep it just the way it is 😊.
Is there any way to install central locking of doors in skoda rapid.
Please make a video on skoda kodiaq diesel tuning procedures
Why still no video on
2016 1.8 MT superb corporate edition
&
1.4 TSI jetta tuned
Guys, slight correction, M in ECM and BCM stands for Module
In the end you said, "1.5 TSI is the engine to have for tuning". but those models have a DQ200, Doesn't that will lead to reliability issues?. there are hundreds of articles on the internet, discussing the DQ200 but it all gets confusing after reading a few lol. Would like to know your opinions on that! hehe
Yes, the DQ200 is infamous for its reliability. The breakdown stories present in the internet are a lot and also they handle upto 250Nm of torque only which is at its max with the 1.5 TSI tune which is 150hp and 250Nm. So if you are tuning a dsg a lot of people suggest a DQ250, which handles around 400 Nm if I recall(the suggestion is if you are doing a project car).
But the 1.5 TSI manual is a safe bet for tuning. The only exception here is the Virtus as it does not have a 1.5 manual.
Hi Soham.. is there any Skoda Rapid 1ltr TSI Stage 2 tuned?
Hi Driver's hub, it seems that altroz diesel's gearbox is limited to 200Nm.
Is that true?
Or can I go ahead with a tune to try and get the Nexon diesel's performance?
If not
Can gearbox be changed from the 5 speed to the 6 speed
Don’t tune it bro. The 5 speed won’t handle the gains.
Like the format
Bro im planning to buy Altroz 1.5 L diesel. Can it b tune in eco mode to 120 Bhp 260 Nm torque & leave default city mode as it is? Pls help..🙏
Bro what if we buy a ecu of polo per say and use that in this car with a tune
Really love d it the information video please tell us about Mahindra Thar same problem of lock
Another problem is that the 1.5l TSI (except Slavia Manual)comes with that DQ 200 with a max torque limit of 250NM.😢
I remember reading on TBHP that with a TCU remap, it can handle up to 300 maybe even 350 NM
Why need to tune ECU?
Just add piggyback ecu override same as "racedynamic dieseltronic"
What's scene with Slavia MT
@@karthiknaik3944 The old Octavia did come with the DQ200 with a torque of 250NM from the factory and the new ones are using the DQ381. DQ200 with a Dry Clutch does have a maximum torque limit of 250 NM.
I do know that the TCU can be tuned as well.
@@saptarshidas2245 my bad, I mixed up DQ250
Can you please make a video on dieseltronic?
Code 6 guy told they can revert into stock when going for service ? Still vw service center will find or not i have warranty till 2027 and planning to extend for 2028
Is there a tune available for octavia mk4?
Please make one video for 1.5tsi too
Code 6, Autopsyche, GT Tuners Delhi cracked 1.5 TSI. The stage 1 puts 175-180HP with 320nm of Torque. IK this video was released way ago. It's been a month since tuners have cracked the 1.5 TSI ECU. It's been an honour boys!
Yes they unlocked it but nice information good to know for knowledge purposes 😉
What will happen if the stock ecu is replaced by an Haltech ECU?
I recall reading that modern engines are so complex and have so many parameters and tight tolerances that it would not run smoothly. What you CAN do is swap in an unlocked ECU from an older year of the same car and learn it to your car. But then you'd have a millage discrepancy between the ECU and the clock
Quantum tuning has a tune listed for both 1.0 & 1.5 tsi though, Then again
As seen with skoda laura a stage 3 can push out anywhere 330 to 350 hp
And the stock civic 1.8 (R18A) once turbocharged gives out between 370 to 470 hp
It will be the same case time and time again
Cars made with turbo in mind have lesser gains at end stage modifications since they were designed to rely on it.
Unlike na engines which were designed to not to rely on forced induction, it creates more power when added as the engine is using it as supplement , rather than being reliant on it
Which ecu it has? Bosch or Siemens
can we just replace the ecu altogether?
Can we swap this with old 1.8tsi ?
Code 6 has come up with workaround to flash new maps
Cant we change the ecu?
Can we tune vws 1.2 Mpi engine ?
What if we change Ecu??
Can we tune nexon diesel amt? What are the drawbacks of getting car tuned? I am new and learning about tuning
You can tune any car it just depends on tuner capabilities and a tuned diesel Nexon? That would be amazing thing. Phele se hi itna torque hai tune ke baad tho hawai jahaj ban Jani hai
@@hi_minku thanks for the reply.. yeah agreed already torque is excellent if we tune it then it would go crazy 🔥
Tune is available for 1.5 tsi evo
Nice video and very informative. Just one suggestion... Pls clean your engine before shooting! Your videos are being watched from all over the world!
Looks like amateur hour fr
I took an i20 NA 2022 model to the best tuning shops in India but I could not get the ecu tuned. Does the new i20 have ecu lock?
Same here the ecu is locked
Can we put new custom ecu ?💹
What if we just change the ecu
I have a polo 1.6 tdi. I have tuned this car from 3 different tuners over the period of 5 years. At last i settled with an APR tune. I am so sorry for the upcoming car enthusiasts and cars that you all won't have that privilege i or the many other car enthusiasts who own these toys can do or enjoy doing. So do one thing. Go to the TDH classifieds and get yourself a real mans car.
How much bhp and torque figures?
10 months in. Yet no ECU unlock for the 1.5 TSI. SadAF
Code6 Bangalore has already cracked the tune on 1.0 tsi engines
Use good tool like mms or autotuner, ori kess 3 might do it .
Already skoda kushaq 1ltr has been tuned by code6 video is on RUclips
What about Tiguan 2.0tsi
Bro can I tune my Hyundai getz prime
Chennai is the hub for mods and tuning. I guess they would have cracked it.
If someone cannot to wait to tune their car and can spend money, the VW Jetta and VW virtus in India share the same engine with same power figures, so you can order stage 1 and 2 ecu and tcu tune also intakes, intercooler and everything from North America.
Is the 1.5 not the same engine as the T Roc as well?
Doesn't matter as speed limits are coming everywhere 60 to 100 is now mostly in main cities so where are you going to use all this. It's actually better they just make it more difficult and almost impossible to modify and add speed lock at 120s
Buy the t roc ecu instal it on vw virtus and then vtune it
Its not any tuner that unlocks the ecu. Its actually the manufacturers of the tools the tuners use. 21+ bmw ecu's has been unlocked by xhp, 21+ vag car ecus has been unlocked by autotuner and the 1.0tsi and 1.5 crdi from hundayi has been unlocked by cmd.
cant we just swap the ecu's from the older model cars & tune it! I dont no whether the question is valid or not.
Why need to tune ECU?
Just add piggyback ecu override same as "racedynamic dieseltronic"
That video is very helpful for @pratham Shokeen 😂😂
DQ200 cannot be tuned it supports only 150 bhp and 250nm of torque and ecu remap is impossible in these conditions or else go to the service center every week
No bro you tune vw virtus easily but a high amount of money is paid if you want tune your virtus just change engine wiring and ecu. But that costs more than tuning into stages.
Wolf remap just tuned 1.5 virtus of kerala actor. Arjun ashokan go watch that video.thats a tuned 1.5 dct virtus.
I have an i10 2011 model. Can it be tuned?
no
hope they broke 1.5's ecu as 1.0....fingers crossed
Yeah 🥲
Is there anyone having slavia 1.5 mt
Tuned 1.5 vw virtuses race in mmrt. Different ecu idk
Yes that produces 215 Hp.
Bruh code6 has unlock the 1.0 tsi ECU and its tunable now
is it possible to replace the ECU itself
In theory yes. On my 1.5tsi seat you can swap in an older year (but same car model) ECU and learn it to the car
But I don't know if the virtus has older versions where they cracked the ECU.
I hope this car becomes a VRS in a lesser price.
Can you tell the gains of 1.0 kushaq
Available on my channel dude..
Please subscribe though
INDIA'S FIRST TUNED SKODA KUSHAQ
Why need to tune ECU?
Just add piggyback ecu override same as "racedynamic dieseltronic"
Brother the car is too new and it just came out. For the software developers it takes time to crack the ecu and come out with tunes and mods for a car. German cars are the easiest to tune among everything. Just wait for 6 months and you’ll have so Many mods for the virtus.
Why not just change the whole ECU?
Cool
Code6 otw💨
Please make a video on MG Astor 1.5 NA remap
Autopsyche in delhi have already done projects like VW virtus so far.
Code 6 joined the chat !
Honda city ?
Same thing with 2022 verna
I'm "pretty sure", one day someone will be able to do so
