You plug into the same obd11 port you plugged into to tune the ECU.

Nahh mate
I dont know any tuning tool that can do the TCU obd
I have alientech kess 2
Even that had a separate cable that plugs directly to the TCU

The Cobb Access Port connects to the OBD2 port to tune the ECU and the TCU. I don't know if it's different on a European car buy I don't see why it would be different. Enlighten me.

How much is the COBB
I saw this on youtube
Looks nice

when i code a gearbox in i have to connect and read flash/eep through the TCU plug

Safe to assume you have a DQ250? You don't need to pay someone else to tune it or pay for an AccessPort just for DSG tuning. Check out the DIY tuning threads:

You looking for a full replacement like this?

https://www.goapr.com/products/software/tcu_upgrade/parts/TCU-DQ250-MQB

Otherwise there are vendors that tune them through the OBD port. A quick search you’d see that.

Clearly the right question isn’t being asked here.

Do you need to know the physical location of the unit?

No mate

i can read/write it myself

thanks
