Do you think my tune is gone?
My car is at the dealership to resolve a problem with the memory settings not working correctly. I talked to them today and they said the problem was corrected by a reflash (not sure how well it is going to work -- but that is a separate issue)
Is my custom tune gone? It is not a big deal, the car is going in for a H/C package in the next couple of weeks so it would going to need to be redone anyway.

It really isn't a big deal...The loss of tune will be worth it if they fixed my seat problems.

As I mentioned in your other thread, they SHOULD have just flashed the BCM since the PCM has nothing to do with the power seats or memory features. Glad to see that the dealer was smart enough to do just that.

In order to prevent dealers or other service staff from overwriting a custom tune, has anyone ever seen any kind of locking cover or cap that could be placed over the OBDII data port? (The down side would be that it'd be an obvious tipoff that the customer's car has been tuned.)
