How many times an ECU can be flashed?
How many times an ECU can be flashed?
Hi AL, I am asking this because in Puerto Rico Gadiel is now a Cobb Tuning Accesport Pro Reflash Certified Tuner. Now he can reflash all kind of Subarus. And in the Cobb Tuning Webpage I saw this:
------------
Due to limitations within the ECU's flash memory, one can only successfully reprogram it approximately 100 times. In response to this challenge, our engineers developed a LIMITLESS Map Switching system. This means you can switch between maps as often as you like quickly, easily, and without ever reducing the life of your ECU's flash memory.
----------
This is the Accessport: http://cobbtuning.com/legacy/accessport.html
Also Gadiel said thats the reason why the tuners do very little passes when reflashing. Is that true in the Evos too? I didnt knew that. Just curious.

i think 100 is overkill but it should be enough
