If it's been reset it's ready to go. Follow the instructions on the Bluefin website but they go something like this.

Plug it in the car.

Download the latest Bluefin SW from Superchips plug the handset into your PC.

Connect the handset and upload your standard map.

Wait for an email or text from Superchips.

Reconnect your handset and then install your new map.

Plug it in the car and follow all the instructions taking great care not to turn it off at the wrong point.

It is a VAG Bluefin handset isn't it Rich?

Ta Hedge... yes its a VAG Bluefin used previously on a Leon Cupra 2.0TFSI.

My friend seems to think its still got the Leon FR map on it. It registered to him at the moment.

I think Superchips charge £199 for a reset. A new handset (Bluefin) from jkm last week with forum discount is £405 INC VAT for your info Rich.

Depends on how much your mate will let you have it for to make it worthwhile.

He is selling it for 200...

Saint Steve · « **Reply #8 on:** May 21, 2011, 08:05:35 pm »

Then buy a new handset mate

If it's not reset then he's having a laff.

P-Torque will do you a stage 1 map for £295, Rich

If hes had it for less then 6 months, i think he can get it reset for free by S.C..... going by what Wigit did for me what i bought his old Bluefin handset.

Buying it for £200 as a reset handset is worth it, but not if hes not prepaired to pay the cost to reset it, if its older then 6 months.(not sure on timescale tbh, might be 1 year )

liver · « **Reply #12 on:** May 21, 2011, 08:11:34 pm »

just to give u an insight i paid £175 for a reset bluefin

rich83 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 21, 2011, 08:14:13 pm »

OK. cool!

Steve i think its older than a year.

Saint Steve · « **Reply #14 on:** May 21, 2011, 08:16:10 pm »

Then buy new mate if he's not resetting...

Bluefin are doing a roaring trade recently
