Flashing license is VIN locked and each vehicle needs separated a separate license. If you choose to sell a car with MG Flasher, the new buyer will have access to all purchases linked with that vehicle’s VIN. In case you choose to take your MG Flasher software with you to another car, we can do a license transfer too. The process will involve deactivating the original car using our app before activating the new car and providing us with both vehicle VINs. The car you will choose to transfer to must be supported. Transfers can only be performed once and do not apply for custom tunes. For details contact us at info@mgflasher.comMG Flasher licenses, including OTS maps are only valid for the vehicle they have been redeemed on. If switching to a new vehicle, the desired licenses will need to be repurchased.

17. Does the MG Flasher unlock the ECU, or would it be needed an ECU unlock at a bench before the first map programming?

MG Flasher is able to unlock cars with certain “Low Security” software without having the ECU bench unlocked. Cars with “High Security” software will require a bench unlock. Cars with ECUs that were produced after 07.2020 have additional hardware security measures that will require a particular bench unlock. This particular bench unlock is currently only offered by Femto. Regular bench unlocks can be done by tuners that are familiar with modern BMW software. Please see our dealer map for a list of recommended shops. To determine whether your software requires a bench unlock, please refer to this page: Bench Unlock Required for Select BMW MG1, including new 07.2020+ ECUs .
