Make that 4 fubarred pistons

[Taggy]

Well i dont mind giving them to an admin to clean up, would be pritty easy to get them engraved and stuck on a rod, i got loads of spares.

[rob_bower]

That's is the most awesome idea EVER! Polished up engraved and mounted. Be the most awesome trophy.

[Taggy]

Ill make a seperate thead to see what people think

Taggy, are you using an emanage blue? if yes, there are some fake emanage blue on the market, known to loose the map, after some time.

If you reload the map it will be good for some more time.

The Greddy software and all features work and it's very difficult to find out if it's real or not. Your best bet is to open it and see/compare with a known good.

Well i have had a change of plan, I really need to keep the rebuild costs down especially as i now need a new set of forged pistons so I have emailed tuning developments if i can take the car back to them to get fault tested for no charge. Cant really afford to pay another £250 to put it back on the rollers again, im bloody skint now.

That way they get a chance to see if its something that's failed or if indeed they missed something, i dont see why they shouldnt.

You really think they going to admit to you it's there fault...

[micky boy]

you obviously don't know nick and mike then - most honest people I know.

Oh and if you tell another tuner that you think another tuner has fucked up, whether they have or not the vast majority will say they have fucked up (whether the have or not!) and charge you for fixing something that didnt need fixing.

Oh I'm speaking from experience here also

I dont no nick or mike no

But from what i have heard about them they are sound lads! And they have tuned some awesome EP's over the years! So if anyone thought for one min i was point the finger towords TD they have got me all wrong! Either way i hope you get it sorted Taggy dont give up dude:)

Fake EMB wtf surely td get all genuine products. hope it gets sorted mate mines on its way up to td month.

[steve-gers]

Is that picture of the fake EMB genuine as my mine has grey connectors abd you cant feel letters on front. Need to wait till I get home to check the papers and colour of screwdriver though.

Also has no serial number on the back.

[Taggy]

sounds like you got a fake one dude, you should have a serial!

where did you get it from?

[A L 3 X]

Mine supplied by Td has grey connectors mate, if it was supplied by Td I wouldn't think it was fake tbh?

[akyakapotter]

Makes me wanna go look at mine lol

[starletburkie]

Can't see td supplying fake emb's lol

[A L 3 X]

Exactly, mine has the correct colour leds and USB, wouldn't think they'd supply fakes anyway as you say, not knowingly anyway lol

[steve-gers]

Mine was from TD (21/12/2012), has grey connectors (except map), no serial number on the back, front letters are not raised but the screwdriver inside is blue not yellow or red. Maybe there new style?

[pick1]

Had my emanage blue from td and even when car stood for a while it never lost its map and has been bang on so highly doubt td's fakes sure they get there kits from main dealers not off the back of lorries lol

[A L 3 X]

I didn't get a screwdriver in my box, what they for lol?

[Idrees]

I'm not sure I'd rely on that picture above. I've seen many EMB/EMU's and don't recall seeing a white connector on any of them!

Mine are white

[shorty]

IF and its a big if they where fake it would be a fualt with supplier not retailer. also TD are very spot on lads and tbh if it is a fueling issueit could occur at any time wether it be on a dyno or a road, the day its mapped or 278days later fualts are fualts if you knew it was due it wouldnt occur lol. it sucks arse that this has happened but nodoubt the cuase will be found soon enough. chin up taggy man. the boxey can not be done with yet, shes still got some slaying to do on track.

[steve-gers]

I know they would never sell fakes just that picture made me think they may have accidently got a dodgy lot from somebody. Strange how mine has no serial number.

[A L 3 X]

Steve I wouldn't worry too much, are your lights and USB insides the correct colours?
