the VIN of the first vehicle it is used on, rendering the device useless to anyone else. Before I try to sell the GIAC, I would like to know that I will not be screwing someone.

***This is not a 'For Sale' post, so please do not email me about the device. It will be in the Classifieds when I am ready to sell it.***

Default Well the flashloader will work but the flashloader doesnt have the software on it....

your ECM does. When you are flashed all the software is written onto your ECM. When you plug your flashloader in your just activating which program on the ECM you want to use. All the FlashLoader is in essence is a switcher.

That would have been nice. If the ecu in your Audi loses communication with the installing device you can lock up your ecu.
