The EURO+DRIVE handheld tuner offers Dodge Dart owners a powerful tool for optimizing performance. This comprehensive guide outlines the installation and tuning process, ensuring a seamless upgrade experience. Before diving in, familiarize yourself with the included setup guide.
Preparing for Your Dodge Dart Tune
Begin by setting up your account on the EURO+DRIVE/Powergate app. Critically, complete a Tune Request Form; this mandatory step accompanies your ECU Read File submission. Gather the necessary equipment: an OBDII connection cable, the EURO+DRIVE handheld device, and a compatible smartphone (Android 7.0+ or iOS 12.0+).
For certain vehicles (Alfa Romeo and some Jeep Renegade/Fiat 500X models after February 2018), a SGW Bypass Module is required for successful tune file writing. Without it, the flashing process will fail.
Installation Tip: Patience is key. Allow 5-10 seconds (or more) between key ON and OFF prompts before confirming any action.
Important Ownership Considerations: The EURO+DRIVE handheld’s memory can be remotely erased by EUROCOMPULSION, facilitating transfer to another user or vehicle. However, flashing your ECU back to stock before selling your vehicle or handheld, or taking your car for dealership maintenance, is crucial. Failure to do so will lock the handheld, preventing memory erasure. This necessitates purchasing a replacement handheld or a $399 unlock credit.
Writing the Tune to Your Dodge Dart
Each time a tune is written, the EURO+DRIVE system guides you through specific procedures. Giulia/Stelvio owners: During the phonic wheel relearn phase (after the tune writes to the ECU), revving the engine to redline is essential. Completing this before finalizing the tune prevents a persistent flashing Check Engine Light (CEL) that can only be cleared through the phonic wheel relearn process.
