APR is pleased to announce all previously known “locked” Simos 18 ECUs are now DirectPort Programmable with any current stage of APR software at all APR dealers across the globe! The software install process is now a simple flash over the OBD-II port, just like the earlier models, and does not require removal of the ECU from the vehicle for available software. Most commonly “locked” ECUs were found in late model 2015 and newer versions of the following vehicles:





1.8T/2.0T EA888 Gen 3 (MQB Platform):

1.8T/2.0T EA888 Gen 3 (Non-MQB Platform):

Please Note: If a new ECU Box Code or Revision is found that is not currently available by APR and not currently in APR’s possession, please contact APR for details on how you can save on the ECU Upgrade. Also, if you currently have APR software, this is not an update as this only applies to ECUs that were previously unavailable.





Contact an APR Dealer today to schedule an appointment!





Thank you and Go APR!
