To test if it is locked, download a free copy of forscan and then try and connect your laptop to your car via obd and see what forscan says. If it says it can't connect, then your x4 cal tune is locked.

If it were me though, I'd just see if hpt reads the tune ok and then tune from there if it does. Your tuner can decide what option they prefer. Fwiw I was writing a tune one day and the laptop died and it just rewrote when I fired the lappy up again.

Also op if you haven't already, head over to the hp tuner forums and have a look. Some of the guys from here have posted some quality stuff there over the years. Just like here it will take some digging though.

Fischer89 New Member 21 Member For: 7y 7m 27d Posted 05/12/17 07:36 AM Author Share Posted 05/12/17 07:36 AM Thanks I've been reading alot on the hpt forums.. From what I've read there only seems to be a problem with hpt writing over efi-live tunes but that could have since been fixed with the new update.. Doesn't seem to be a problem with the US guys writing directly over SCT tunes but still very hard to get a 100% answer about the aus fords Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/93596-sct-to-hpt-problem/page/2/#findComment-1648040 Share on other sites More sharing options...
