The COBB AccessPort V3 is a handheld ECU flashing tool and in-cabin gauge for the MK7 and MK7.5 Golf, GTI, Jetta GLI and 8V Audi A3. It replaces the conservative factory ECU calibration with COBB's Off The Shelf maps or a tune from your COBB Protuner, and mounts in the cabin as a full-color gauge display when it isn't flashing. This base unit tunes the engine ECU on either a manual or DSG-equipped car. If you also want to flash the DSG transmission control unit, choose the COBB DSG Software option below. Why Choose the AccessPort? Simple, on-screen guided flashing and reverting, with no separate tuning shop visit required Stores up to 100 maps from COBB's OTS database or a COBB Protuner, switchable on demand Doubles as a configurable, full-color multi-gauge display while installed in the car Reads and clears OBD-II trouble codes Logs multiple data channels for up to 10 hours, plus 0-60, 60-foot and quarter-mile performance testing Adjustable shift light, launch control and flat foot shift on supported engines Important Compatibility Information Adjustable traction control, flat foot shift and launch control are not available on 1.8T-equipped Golf, Sportwagen, Alltrack or Audi FWD models. Not compatible with GPF-equipped or MAF-sensor-equipped variants of these platforms. Installing anything other than OEM or COBB software over this AccessPort can cause ECU or TCU failure.

This base AccessPort tunes the engine ECU on either transmission. If you also want to flash the DSG transmission itself, choose the COBB DSG Software variant. Can I add DSG tuning later?Yes. DSG/S tronic flashing can be added to a base AccessPort with a firmware update rather than requiring a new unit. Will this work with a GPF-equipped car?No. COBB does not support GPF-equipped or MAF-sensor-equipped variants of this platform with this AccessPort. What happens if I install something other than a COBB or OEM map?Don't. COBB warns that flashing anything other than OEM or COBB software over this AccessPort can cause ECU or TCU failure. Are launch control and flat foot shift available on my engine?Not on 1.8T-equipped Golf, Sportwagen, Alltrack or Audi FWD models. These features are available on the 2.0T-equipped GTI, GLI, R and S3 engines.
