Car is 2013 5.0 A6 with hellion TT kit. Custom tune has been on for over a year and running fine until recently.
So I have been having issues with my car not starting and what seems like the ECM is corrupted. All other electronic devices work just fine. Besides the Hellion Kit, which has been on for over a year and running fine, I did put a 2-step on which was already removed.
I contacted SCT and they were great in building a recovery file, which was able to unlock the computer and allowed me to return to stock and re-upload my tune. The car sat for a week and it happened again. I tested the battery and was at 89% and 12.1 volts after sitting for as week. Again SCT sent the recovery file and car was running fine. That was yesterday. Today, I check and again, the car will not start and the SCT handheld is unable to communicate withe the ECM.
I dont think the battery is bad, so buying a new one probably wont help, I am just not sure if my ECM is just messed up and needs replaced. I can't really think of anything else that would be causing this overnight.
