Does anyone know the procedure for resetting my 3 month old bluefin unit?
Is it a send away the unit or reset via internet?
I read on jkm's website if your the original owner and less than 12 months old reset is free.
Any help would be great.

Bluefin reset.

You should be able to re-config your car to its original state by using the Bluefin handset. Your original map should still be either on your handset or stored on your computer. It's just simply a matter of plugging the bluefin into your obd port and uploading the original Map.

You might have read this already .


Can I have the bluefin handset reset for use on another car?
Yes – however this is dealt with by Superchips UK directly as JKM do not have the authorisation or ability to unlock bluefin handsets. The first (original) vehicle that was programmed with the bluefin handset will need to be returned to factory stock - then the bluefin handset can be reset.
If you change your car within the first 12 months of owning the bluefin and you change to a similar manufactures type (so that you can retain the bluefin handset that you have) – for example you change from a Volkswagen Golf GTI to a Volkswagen Passat TDI then currently (June 2010) Superchips will reset the handset for you to use on your new car application for free of charge. This is assuming that the new vehicle type is supported by Bluefin, please check first.
This is only valid once per handset and is only for 12 months from the point of purchasing / registering the handset with Superchips. Outside of the first 12months of ownership of the bluefin it is still possible to have the handset reset – however you will need to contact Superchips UK directly as JKM do not have the authorisation for this process.

Yeah I read that but it says currently June 2010 so I wondered if it had changed by now?
Also it doesn't say if its done remotely or not.

Depends on how old the unit is if more than 12 months they will charge between 200-400 approx depending on the program u want

Ok so aslong as the unit in not 12months old they'll swap the map from the astra cdti to a 2.0tfsi???

I haven't looked but if you go on jkm's website and check the part number of the unit used for the astra then the one for your Leon. Think the Leon one is BF06 something.

I was going to reset the bluefin and take part in the revo deal but I drove a cupra with revo stage 1 and apart from the aggressive boost there's not much difference between the two.
Both beat each other at different rpms.

I've had the pleasure of both Revo and Bluefin on a Cupra and my tweaked Bluefin map doesn't feel much different than my old Revo K1.

I had a Bluefin changed from an Audi TDI to a Cupra and they charged me £200. It was over 12 months after it's purchase though. The unit had to go back to Superchips and be reset. I got exactly the same unit back as it uses the same connector.

Well I got my bluefin reset remotely over the internet and it never cost me anything as I have only had it 4 months.
So now its reset and ready for a new owner.
