Hello everyone, Im about to install a DQ500 gearbox from a Skoda Kodiaq prod. year 2020, into a 4 cyl Opel engine. Is the TCU of this gearbox supported by EMU Black? I dont want to buy a gearbox and than find out that it is not supported by the EMU BLACK software. Is there any official information by ECU MASTER on this regard? Do you have a list of gearboxes that are supported by the ecumaster software? Is MQB supported or does it have to be an older version of it? Waiting for feedback before I purchase the new gearbox. Thank you very much! ---

Check out the v3 version of. The emu software there is recent support for mqb gearboxes but I’m not sure if the dq500 is supported. I also believe you need immo off done on the gearbox ---

The V3 software does not support any of the DQ500 gearboxes!
