Thanks.
Just the usual tips:
  • never select code default values
  • do not select "code" after selecting svt folder at top of tree
  • stick to known coding to start
  • cheat sheets are chassis specific but coding is hardware specific; the ladder goes for Ecu's as well as hardware like headlights
  • know the difference between fdl- and vo-coding and how to reset back to factory
  • figure out whatever system works for you to keep track of changes
  • run engine while coding (except for dme/dde which you should not be touching anyways) to ensure adequate voltage
