Never been a fan of piggy back tuning, much prefer a solid flash that covers all the peripheral details as well...

That said, have a jb4 on The Wife's bmw x1. Pretty cool that it monitors oil temp and doesn't kick in the fancy stuff until up to temp. :)

I have had a JB4 on my A4 for over 60k miles, ~50k of which it has been stacked with a custom map 6 ontop of an IE tune and the car has been dead reliable at 133k miles and even got a clean blackstone report after its last oil change. JB4s aren't an ideal tuning solution, but when it comes to piggybacks they're as good as it gets IMO. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend one to someone who doesn't want to commit to a flash tune.

Had one on the GTI too until I decided to take the plunge and learn to self tune with simostools

In our vw world does the jb4 have all the "on the fly" change stuff etc?

In the bmw environment you can use a button combo on the steering wheel to read codes, change maps, set certain gauges to act as a boost gauge etc...

Just curious 🤔
Cool features are cool

The VAG cars don't have the same level of CAN integration with the JB4 as the BMWs, but the mobile app works well enough for doing those things. It would be cool though to have those functions accessible via the wheel and cluster
