getting frustrated and getting nowhere

Postby lol4fun » Sun Dec 08, 2013 11:34 pm

Hi,

I have a Citroen C5 2.2HDi and want to remove the DPF and possibly play around with remapping it for more power. but first i need to get it out of limp mode.

I have a galletto 1260 but cant get the software to connect to the ecu. ive pulled the ecu from the car and doing this on a bench with a known good desktop PC.

i seem to be going in circles and not getting anywhere, can someone help?

i bought an MPPS v12 after being recommended by a friend but the seller sent a MPPS v13, is this the same or backwards compatible or will this not work either? :crazy:

Maybe yes, maybe not, but probably yes. I have a suzuki swift 1.3ddis with a marelli ecu and the only hardware that i can read my maps is galleto 2. With the cheaper galleto, the 1260, i can't :yawn:

here you go.
file is correct, flashing at your own risk.
