For years the DSG and S-Tronic found in 2022+ various Audi, Volkswagen, and other VAG brands has been locked. This means no matter what you do, there's no way to tune the transmission without physical modification, which was expensive and messy....

But not any more!

AutoTuner has created an unlock for the OBD port that allows you to tune the transmission with whatever tune you want. Choose one of the popular tuning brands you love, or go the custom route and make it your own. The choice is yours and AutoTuner makes is possible.

So how does this work?

Any shop that owns an AutoTuner Tool can do this. There are tens of thousands of shops around the world with this tool already as it's a universal programming device that works on 23,000 different vehicles. It's what many custom tuning shops are using to flash your vehicle.

Here's the process:

• Plug into the transmission, without removing it, with a DSG harness (Either DQ38x harness or DSG Kit.
• Backup the transmission (Takes about 3 minutes and 30 seconds, and is smart to do).
• Run the unlock script (Takes about 30 seconds).

That's it.

The transmission is now unlocked and can be flashed via the OBD port.
