How TCU Cloning Works
Mechatronic cloning refers to the process of copying or cloning the software in a TCU (Transmission Control Unit) from one mechatronic unit to another. The TCU is an important part of an automatic transmission, which controls the operation of the gearbox by means of software. Cloning the mechatronics means that the software settings, calibrations and configurations that are present on the original mechatronics are transferred exactly to a new or used unit.
Cloning a TCU is the solution to various transmission problems. For example, if you are experiencing problems with a broken DSG that is not suitable for repair, TCU cloning may be the answer. The process ensures that all calibrations and settings are retained. Also with specific models, such as a Mercedes, where a TCU repair occurs frequently, cloning the TCU is sometimes a necessary step. Cloning transfers the information from the original TCU to another, allowing you to get back on the road smoothly.
This way you don't have to worry about relearning and programming the computer and it won't give any problems like immobilizer, additional fault codes or strange behavior of the DSG gearbox. Delivering a used unit is at your own risk.
