Predator locked to another car have a few questions

[MattysTA]

From what i understand i can send it in to have it unlocked for a cost of 100.00? well what i need to know is , would it be worth it? i paid 112.00 shipped. Its software version 1.03 and hardware version 1.00 so is it upgradable? and can it still have custom tunes installed? i'm assuming yes since it has that menu function. the part number on the orig box it came in is 998917(granatelli version) but is pretty much the u7198 i believe. i need to know asap as i have 7 days to return it. thanks for any help in advance

Look under options/car tune.
If it says staock tune, it can be unlocked for $99.
If it says Perfomance tune or Diablo tune is cannot be unlocked.

Thanks

Why cant it be unlocked if it says either of those? diablo/performance tune? (which im pretty sure it does) I mean considering that your the manufacturer i would think it wouldnt matter? .looks like i bought a useless diagnostic scanner

Well, this is why we are so persistent about not buying these tools second hand, since you have no way of knowing what you are getting until its too late.

Thanks
