Nissan Dealer ECU Reflash

Stino · 11-29-2016, 10:53 PM

If my car is not drivable, can I remove my ECU and bring it to the dealer for a reflash?

Thanks for any help.

No, they will want it in the car.

My Z is fixed and running better than ever. I replaced the VEL control Module, adjusted the VEL Actuator Sensors myself with UpRev software and didn't have to part with $3200 like the Nissan dealer said I needed to.

When I took my car to Nissan and supposedly spoke to their top mechanic, he had no clue what I was talking about until I showed him in the 370Z service manual. There is absolutely no excuse for that if you are the top shop mechanic.

Do yourself a favor and read the service manual; you'll know just as much as the Nissan Dealer Mechanics.
