Default APR Stage 1 Update on a 2004.5

Had the chip for a month now and the problem that I had right off the bat has come back

Everytime I turn the car off the car reverts to stock program. I have both stock and 93.

Car has already been reflashed once and I'm annoyed cause every time I start the car I have to hold the cruise down to pick 93.

Place I bought it from said APR knows this is an issue. Guess its time to call APR.

Anyone else with APR have this problem or has anyone heard of this?

Only way to fix APR problems is to not have APR

Default Thanks, I am going to talk to APR about it.

Never dealt with them before. I will be keen to see what stance they take.

Default alot of people state all these problems with APR...

but looking through past posts it would appear there isn't an over whelming amount... at least not much more than other chips.

Default I have the exact same setup and have had NO PROBLEMS...

(said, as he crosses his fingers). I have 2 cars running the Stage1 93 Oct, and neither have had any issues. I muse at the APR bashing posts and wonder why things could be so different from car to car or person to person. Doesn't matter. their software does exactly what I expected it to.
