Make sure the key is in position 2 and you can see the fuel gauge move!

When I plug the genius up to my car, the tune is not listed on it anywhere. What gives?!

Ok, I just sent like 15 tune files out to various customers.

Has everyone received their files and gotten them loaded?

They told me to wait until tomorrow...

Do you want me to try and help you? I know we didn't sell you the programmer or tune, but I've done 5 remotely and 15 via email today so I'm on a roll!

Feel free to give me a call and I can walk you through it.

Thanks Jerry. I appreciate it but I'll wait for Velos to respond.
If they don't resolve the issue in 24h I'll definitely contact You

Ok, here are a few tips for now.

1. The C63 cannot be "READ" via OBDII. The only options you should see are PRT Identify and ID. You need to PRT Identify first, then ID. After the ID is done, email your file to Velos.

2. Make sure the key is in position 2 (gas gauge moves) when it tells you to turn the dashboard on.

That's exactly what I got.
So my file on the ECU is saved correctly?

On the instructions I got from Velos it was shown that I should get a screen saying INFORMATION and some number codes underneath.

Your ID information from your car / ecu is saved on the programmer now.

Plug it in to your PC and click the "Download from MyGenius" button. Just launch the client and you'll see it.

Save that file somewhere on your pc and email it to your tuner.

I just wanted to take the time to thank Jerry and this team for making themselves easily accessible, and for the follow-through to make sure that I / we're taken care of. Great service, for sure!

Now I need to readjust myself to get used to the noticeably angrier peak power when I punch the accelerator. The car is also noticeably more powerful in "C" mode as well

I was able to update the device succesfully yesterday, and after sending my info EC I got the tuned file back within the hour, super service!
Loaded the file this morning and although I already had a tune I can clearly feel the difference, gas respons is much better and I really feal the extra power.

Mine still doesn't work. OE Tuning is working with Dimsport to resolve my issue.

I can upload only 1 tune to the Genius and then the upload button is greyed out. However, when I plug the Genius into my car to write the 1 tune, it's not there. Instead, it wants to re-identify my ECU. Then says ECU unknown, update needed. Which I've already updated my Genius. Errr!

If you got a tune to get rid of that. You have to clear the code first, then it wont come back if the tune is uploaded.

Got it installed. Thanks to Jerry and Adam for the support. I did not wait longer than 3 minutes for an email reply the entire time. I highly recommend EC.

I would take it to a Mercedes shop and have them replace the front 02 sensor that is bad.

We only turn off the 02 sensor AFTER the cat. The front ones are very important.

I thought you keep the rear ones on also for OBDII emission testing?

Yes it is my understanding you leave the back ones reporting for emissions testing (to complete readiness tests) but set them not too report codes or set the MIL.
