Default Repost for night crowd: APR releases Anti-Theft System for S4...

Worried about your S4 getting stolen? Check out our new Anti-Theft system available immediately for the Audi S4. This system has been incorporated into the Bosch Motronic engine management system and will render your car immobile until the correct access code has been entered (using your cruise control stalk.) Adding this system to your car requires no additional hardware other than our EMCS engine management upgrade.

How it works:

As with other EMCS functions, the APR Anti-Theft system is incorporated directly into the engine management computer through software. The Anti-Theft routines are software functions written in assembly code that are run by the ECU's microprocessor. Programming on this level requires an intense understanding of microprocessor architecture but delivers seamless feature integration and unmatched reliability.

If you are an existing APR EMCS customer, adding the Anti-Theft system couldn't be easier. Simply run by a dealer and get your module flashed or use an APR EMCS Home Programmer to flash the EMCS module from the comfort of your own home (we will e-mail you all of the software components.) Alternately, you can send your ECU to APR to have your EMCS module reprogrammed. If you are not an APR EMCS customer, you can get the system by visiting an APR dealer or you can send your ECU to us to have the product installed.

The retail price for the APR Anti-Theft system is $199.


Thanks,

Brett

Default Well, not EXACTLY what he did....

check the link for a little more explanation. IBE is really a hardware based system, very, very different from EMCS. Same idea, but very different execution of it.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1029967.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/1029967.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default ok...close. But I have to give APR kudos. You're execution of program changing is very slick

And nothing compares to it. I've had both....I had a APR ECMS chip a while ago, and I loved the functionality of the ECMS. Good job coming out with this added-value feature.

Good luck!
