New Genius Ktouch, what cars can work on (review)
Bought a New Genius Ktouch last week and arrived today.
Been using reworked kess v2, Ktag KTM100 and MPPS v16 reworked. Between all 3 i’ve never not been able to do an ECU so far.
Attempting to use the genius tomorrow.
Installed all appropriate software.
I run it on Windows 10 x64 with SSD hard drive.for now all ok.
Edit: So I successfully remapped a range rover sport 2.7Tdiwith this new genius tool.
First attempt I just assumed software did checksum. Started car and cut out within 5seconds.
Second attempt I did checksums in winols and wrote back to car and everything was fine. My kess v2 read a 2mb file and the dimsport read a 256kb file but all the maps were in the read!
Edit: some test results of New Genius on cars here… Hope it helps.

Checksum recalculated with Genuine Race Evo software for all of my tunes.
Note: WritingOriginal. Modded file need checksum.
(i will test this tool on more cars also…)
New Genius has a perfect feature. It can bypass TPROT security and allow to to flash TPROT ecus without having to open the ecu to unlock it at the first place. You just flash your mod by OBD like you would on any other non TPROT ecu. (Although on TPROT ecus reading function is not available)
But the problem is, that you need to checksum the file with Race Evo on these ecus. Anything else will not work.
