- With the Ultralink you can tune your vehicle with APR Engine Control Unit (ECU) and APR Transmission Control Unit (TCU) Upgrades right from the convenience of your own home, all on your own! It connects your vehicle directly to the Ultralink Marketplace, which is our online store filled with tens of thousands of tunes supporting most of the vehicles in our catalogue.
This guide will help you get started.

Just got mine. This is what Audi needed. Once we go wireless w an app were on par with the bmw guys
Can’t believe this is real! Thank you, APR!
Just ordered mine a few days ago…and it’s coming TODAY!!!
Glad this finally came out and we’ll be grandfathered into our old tunes as well
Please make this compatible with Mac OS.
get parallels 14 days free run windows on mac.
You can run it free in VMWARE
just added support as of today, I received the email.
@@silentedge4 for mac native or for windows with parallels on Mac? Crazy either way. It only took like 20 years lmao
awe man! i just recently bought a unitronic tune with the dongle. apr didnt have this when i bought my unitronic tune.
What type of battery charger is needed to install? All available only seem to be 12v max?
14V is just ideal. Assuming your battery is in good condition any 12v charger/tender will be fine. The whole process takes about 10mins.
All 12v car battery charger actually charging at 14.4v
What type of battery charger u guys recommend ?
I seen one connected to wall socket ?
So, if i get this for my 2020 Audi TT, will i be able to go stage 1, and revert back to stock for inspections? Norway has some strict rules when it comes to engine tuning and emissions.
Two weeks finally passed!!! 😂👍
By the way - do you have to pay each time you flash a different tune? Or once you buy a tune once it's yours to flash for free from that point on?
That correct. Your software is tied to your VIN number so that you will not be charged again.
Does it have to be Windows computer or can I use my Mac
Right now you have to run Microsoft Windows OS. Which is possible on your Mac. But right now the Mac OS is not supported.
hey y'all, looks like macOS support was added today (received the email on 8/13). Definitely helpful in my case, was using a Parallels trial, and free version of Windows before this.
Does it come with a ots tune? Or do you have to buy one on top of this?
What if you have stage 1 from a dealer and want to go to stage 2 with ultralink will it still be discounted
That's what I'm wondering. Did you ever find out?
@@_u0nda928 nah bro never found out
Can you use the NOCO 1000 amp jump starter?
No control via app 😢 this is like 10yrs too late imo
Have you guys made this work with 2008 vw gti mk5 fsi....?
Can I use a MacBook ? And use chrome on the MacBook?
Does it fit the Mexican jetta gli?
If you were targeting dealers, shops or mechanics - “Windows-only” might make a lot of sense. But it’s 2024, and you’re making a bold move to directly equip all of us to play with our tune… not with an iPhone or Android via Bluetooth, but with a…🥁…Windows laptop. We would have paid the extra $5-10 for your cost of implementing on mobile and Bluetooth… who decided to go down the old familiar path with this (and make it a smaller business and learning opportunity for APR)?
Agreed, no Linux/macOS support either. I have a windows desktop but obviously that doesn't help unless I want to move that to my garage when using it lol
I didn’t go APR for this reason, yes I could take it to the dealer, but being able to flash on my phone with 034 is crazyyy.
just got the email that they added macOS support, so that's a start!
@@silentedge4 NO WAY
So will my check engine light affect this my secondary air pump injection valve is bad but I don’t want to fix it will this affect the tune?
Yes it will, I would recommend you fix the part before doing any tuning.
Does this allow me to tune my car my self, or is it the same as before, where OTS tunes are the only thing avaliable. I really want to be able to adjust parameters my self and when i see "diy ecu tune" thats whats going through my head, like HPtuner
OTS only. With the option of having APR build a custom file. TCU tune will allow you to adjust rpms for launch control etc
This make it where i can finally go stage 2??
Will this not be available for b8/b8.5 platforms? My 2016 S4 is tuned with APR.
We will be adding our full catalog. Support is coming soon!
What about BMW ? For example the F series ? Can't find BMW through the websites filter
Check bootmod3 for bmw
Let's go I wanna stage 2 the fwd 2.0 a3
Will this function on chrome browser on an android phone, plugging the USB dongle in with an OTG adapter?
I wouldn’t risk it dude. Flashing the ecu is a big deal and if they didn’t release it for phones it’s probably because it’s not as safe.
So many idiots are gonna screw this up by not following directions and then they’ll blame APR lol
@@crispyone2564 looks like they are planning it for the future, but for now it doesn't even connect. Would be no riskier than a laptop on wifi.
@@ColinRobinson666 Yes, the plan is to add support for iOS and Android.
@@APRtube Is it gonna be weeks? months? or years?
Is there an overrun file 😂
Really looking to buy one for my 2012 A4 2.0t.
If the ultralink costs 200 CAD as it is, how much roughly would a stage 1 91 octane tune with the speed limiter removed and crackles be since I'm mostly stock internals and exhaust still? If it's gonna be like $700 for the tune + 200 for the chip then it's kind of a problem
too bad they don't have literally any information about drivers for windows. This thing is useless because my W11 laptop assumes basic serial COM drivers. No download links anywere, not even in the ultralink portal.
Worthless
