Andy has been very ill in hospital and has had to have a operation ,, he is now back at work but I expect he isn't answering calls due to the work load trying to catch back up as with everyone wanting to ring him he wouldn't be able to work if he answered all his calls

just post it to him with a note inside explaining what you want doing (moved onto bobs dongle and any updates) also add return details and your phone number and stuff in case he needs to contact you , post recorded and sign for so you know they got it (I insure mine)

told a couple of people about this in the last couple of weeks and theres has been sorted for them without much delay

Contact tegsport. Andy no longer deals with the public. I just received my dongle and cable plus basemap for 210plus vat. Still one of the best ECU you can get

that's all down to if its locked and who its locked to ,,, lots of mappers can map them but only if they have access to it ,, which most dont unless previously mapped by them

TEG Sport are dealing with these, they can supply dongles so I assume that means the ECU can be unlocked.
