My car never threw any errors prior to the software upload, it's a low mileage 2012. I presume these errors were the ones that the car threw when the software was being uploaded. I didn't dig deeper for further information but I did have these errors cleared as I was concerned that they may be visible to dealerships. In all honesty, it's very easy to cut corners when your customer does not have the tools or knowledge when it comes to uploading/updating software.

But with that said, I want to emphasize that I am having no problems with the software Alex uploaded on my car, and it is a great improvement over stock. But now I'm aware that the OEM GTS software was not uploaded to my vehicle, and I have no means of identifying what was uploaded - my guess is a modified version as I have stated before. I'll have to admit that I've lost my peace of mind as far as long-term reliability goes, and question the support that Alex is capable of offering if something were to go wrong in the future. Now that Dinan has their own DCT software, I'm considering switching over if further reviews remain positive.
