Custom Flash option allows you to flash your vehicle with custom maps prepared by other tuners/users or if you prefer MG Flasher as your tuner source, we can deliver custom software per individual request.

With Custom Flash option you receive free access to many adjustable parameters like exhaust burble, speed limiter removal, cold start removal (off road use only), catalytic converter delete (dcat, off road use only), etc. Those options can be adjusted anytime from your device.
Additionally our unique On The Fly functions (Custom Code ver6.0 and higher) can be achieved and activated by custom tuner with individual maps adjustment based on Custom Tuners - Map Pack Guide for Custom Code

Flashing License activation is required to be able to access Custom Flash option. Activate/Unlock the ECU flashing procedure must be done before using Custom Flash option (see Flashing procedure | 4. Activate/unlock the ECU flashing procedure).
This is an example of how a stock file is named when using our app: “btld_3075-000.001.032_swfl_3076-080.017.002_swfk_3c9a.xml.080_017_001”, or “ConnectedCar_3c9a_VIN###“.org
The original file is available in Custom Flash area after the car is activated in MGFlasher/Maps folder on your device (Android), or shared via cloud to your computer (iOS)

Sharing STOCK FILE - Click on the small gear icon located on the right, next to the file name ConnectedCar_3c9a_VIN###“.org and hit SHARE button

  • Upload custom tune file/files to your device using “Upload Mod” button on the “Custom Map” page.

You can flash as many customs maps as you like and switch between them.

  • Before flashing, a check of your custom tune will be performed, and all checksums and RSA corrections calculated. Flashing process will start, do not disconnect your phone, do not exit app, do not turn the ignition off during that time.
