Reset ECM

I didn't order my Evoque like most on here it was the first one delivered to California dealership. So I went to reset the ECM so that it learns my driving style. Holy smokes the petrol turbo kicks in at 2500rpm instead of 3k. Feels like a totally different car!

Never owned a land rover or ranger rover but I'm impressed with the evqoue. I came from a Lexus and and very impressed. I will post some pics of my Galway Green soon...

Just had to share Cool

RE: Reset ECM

I just unhooked the battery for few minutes. I was to lazy to find the circuit breaker for the ECM Smile

Reset ECM

How quickly does it adapt. Had my car since about 150 miles.

RE: Reset ECM

My lexus took about 50 miles to learn. I'm guessing it will be about the same

Reset ECM

So does it continuously adapt or definetly need a reset first. This is interesting, did t know it existed in the Evoque.

RE: Reset ECM

Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if it's something like the sneaky ECU trick like on the MBs or pull neg terminal like the Jag. I assume it's probably the same as the Jag as both are owned by Tata......which is to disconnect the battery negative for 5 minutes or hard reset on the Jag is to have the negative touch the positive cable for a second while the positive cable is still connected to the battery.
