Modern VW and Audi engines have major performance potential, making them a favorite among automotive enthusiats. However, even with the best tuning solutions, mechanical failures such as failed injectors, spark plugs, fuel pumps, or even a bad tank of gas can still pose a serious risk to these finely tuned engines.
SHIELD YOUR ENGINE
MEET iE'S UNRIVALED SAFETY PROGRAMMING
THE PROBLEM
THE SOLUTION
iE AutoProtect takes a proactive approach to preventing engine damage with constant cylinder monitoring. At the first sign of a dangerous condition, iE AutoProtect springs into action. Boost and power are lowered instantly and our own unique check engine light code is generated to help identify the problem. Once engine conditions are safe again, normal power is automatically restored.
ADVANCED PROGRAMMING
Most VW/Audi computer logic is based on averages of all cylinders, which allows dangerous conditions to prevail in a single-cylinder knock event. AutoProtect is our proprietary and advanced combination of custom code and maps based calibration programming. It’s more than a simple tune adjustment to stock mapping and more powerful than a limp mode.
WHAT IF IT TRIGGERS?
If you take care of your car regularly and properly tune it, there’s a good chance you’ll never need AutoProtect. If something unexpected happens, we got you covered. (In other words; it’s good to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.)
-
AutoProtect engages. Power is reduced immediately and lowers boost to safe levels to protect your engine.
-
You're in the know. Use your iE POWERlink app to check the diagnostic codes. If AutoProtect has been triggered, a P30C0 (Fuel Quality Poor) is a unique code from iE.
-
You've got a ride home. Unlike a factory limp mode function, AutoProtect will continue to monitor your engine and slowly return power to full output as long as conditions remain safe.
- Contact our Mod Gurus. Contact us, and include your CEL diagnostic code. Our support experts will help you further diagnose the cause and advise the next course of action to keep on the road, worry free.
