Spec B Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Yeah...I have been using the latest ECUFlash with the Tactrix cable.. PM sent with email addy, thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GateTwelve Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Ordered my Autonostics cable on 11-16-08. Never received it. They didn't answer 3 emails, and their phone number doesn't work. I had to open a claim with PayPal (got my refund, w00t!). It doesn't look like there are any for sale on Ebay, either. Anyone know another source for the Autonostics cable?

GateTwelve Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 SpecB, hopefully you have better luck than I did, but I couldn't get them to respond to me in any way (email, online contact form, phone - they didn't even respond to the PayPal claim to defend themselves). Lepich, thanks for posting that...probably wouldn't have found that one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 That sucks...I will wait a week and then put a claim up with PP. Sucks...at least it was $20 and not like $200!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lepich Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 last week was new year week, so it may be a delay. For example: I have ordered HID set from DDMTuning on 15th of december.. After waiting 2 weeks, tried to contact them any possible way, no luck.. Was ready to cancel my CC transaction, but 3 days ago received tracking number, should have the kit in 2 days. It was really cheap offer, DDM kit for a $60 shipped, or so. But, not responding to a PP claim looks really strange.. May be they are russians? Still might be drunk form a new year party, wich last not less then 1 week :-) There are no bad people, just differeent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSFW Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I've also read some reports here and at RomRaider.com of a "vag com" USB cable on eBay that works. Those are closer to $35 shipped IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrGrip Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 ^^ Ahh jeeze. And I just ordered from them last week. I ordered mine 12/24...I'll give it a few more days. I know it was the holidays but geez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted January 12, 2009 Share Posted January 12, 2009 Nothing yet for me..I ordered the Ebay one and the one directly from autonostics..none have arrived. I expect the ebay one to get to me first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeeeeYa Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Somewhat off topic, but it was threads like this that convinced me to upgrade my Tactrix 1.3 to the new Tactrix Openport 2.0. I'd searched for the VagCom cable and wasn't comfortable with what I found. Same when I looked for people's comments about it. When it comes to the car's ECU I do not take chances just for a few bucks. I ordered the Tactrix from TunerTools.com, like MickeyD suggested, on Friday 9 January and received it on Monday the 12th. It looks great, and worked flawlessly immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooby2.5 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I thought you sold your car Jeff. Are you modding the H6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeeeeYa Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I thought you sold your car Jeff. Are you modding the H6 No, not modding, not yet nor any forseen future...... however . I believe in knowing what is going on. I keep my eye on tire pressures (though this new tire pressure monitoring system is interesting), oil levels, and check the various other fluids. After being intimate with an ECU for years I have come to believe NOT logging one's vehicle is like not doing that other stuff. If, during the coming logging and exploration of the 3.0R ECU, an obvious benefit could be had by changing something I would consider modifying it. I will mention something I found in Learning View, the 3.0R does have twin AFR systems as MickeyD thought. See, already interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wsmith30132 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Has anybody had any luck contacting someone from Autonostics? I ordered my data logging cable 2 months ago and still havnt recieved it. I was just past 45 days when i tried to dispute it on paypal. Out of the 100 times ive called them the past month not once have i reached anyone. Same with the emails. Thats what i get for going cheap...

Out of the 100 times ive called them the past month not once have i reached anyone. Same with the emails. Thats what i get for going cheap... That's my story...I order it exactly 2 months ago to today's date. I was NEVER able to get a hold of anyone, or get a response from emails. The only upside to Autonostic's silence is that PayPal pretty quickly sides with you. I just ordered one of the Ebay cables for a couple bucks cheaper than the Autonostics one...hopefully that one actually shows up so I can start logging soon.
