Have you contacted Cobb about the problem? Guessing you may have due to you just receiving a new cable.

 

Not that it should make a difference but have you connected it to accessport manager to see if a firmware update is available?

 

Yes I have contacted Cobb and I did the most recent update that came out last month. Guess I’ll have to call them and possibly send it in for them to look at. I also checked all my prongs and wires in my OBD port and they all look fine. I also took the car out with my code reader plugged in instead of my accessport. I can only look at one gauge at a time, had the boost gauge up and I drove around for 5 or so minutes and my code reader didn’t lose connection with the car at all. So it’s gotta be something with my unit itself.

So I uploaded the video I took to YouTube.

 

Hope this clarifies more

No it sends the message that it’s trying to connect with the car when the car is on. The same message it says when you turn off the car.

Ben from the Gears and Gasoline had similar issues with his flood-salvaged Legacy GT wagon a couple years ago. Hopefully you don't have any issues with the electrical system.

 

Are your battery and alternator in good working order?

 

I haven’t had any issues at all with anything electrical. My turbo was upgraded and engine was rebuilt about 20k miles ago and my mechanic didn’t mention any other issues with the car.

So I just received a new cord from Cobb for my v3 but my accessport still loses connection with the car. It stays on, but will pull the screen after you shut your car off saying the accessport is trying to connect with the vehicle for just a split second and then will show all my gauges again. Any ideas on how to fix? (Trying to upload a video but won’t work. Will keep trying to get it on.)

I would recommend the 6speed all day, its more expensive than the 5speed but way way more reliable and fun (especially if you get a dccd one). I just swapped my 4th gen today from a 4eat to a 5speed and its not that hard

Does the MT just bolt right up? Or are there adapters or modifications needed?

So I'm relatively new to the whole tuning culture. I have a 2009 LGT with the 5sp auto. I bought the car stock, since then I've had to replace a blown VF-46 Turbo with a VF-52 Turbo. Shortly after, having to rebuild the engine. After the rebuild I have installed a header-back exhaust (one cat from the Invidia Catback system), Intake, and a Cobb V3 Accessport. I plan on installing 1050cc fuel injectors, a bigger fuel pump, and a TM intercooler (not sure if i want to convert to FM because of cost). With all this said I know I'm losing Torque from the torque converter from the AT. That being said, I want to know what anyone suggests would be the best tranny to swap in (MT 6sp or 5sp, no preference). And what will hold up for me the longest being the abusive driver I am lol.

 

Thanks in Advance, Zack
