Got Questions About the Latest Tuning Tools? Bring Them Live
Pro tuning tools are changing at a breakneck pace.
In 2026 alone we've seen new ECU and TCU protocols, fresh unlocking solutions, wider Bench and OBD coverage, datalogging features and all-new hardware.
For working tuners, staying on top of all that now matters as much as owning the tools.
On Tuesday, October 13, we're hosting a FREE live Q&A webinar all about tuning tools and the Viezu File Portal.
Three members of Viezu's senior team will be on the panel:
Paul Busby – CEO / Simon White – Managing Director / Ian Armstrong – Head of Sales & Commercial Operations
They'll walk through recent tool developments, dig into specific features and applications, explain how the File Portal works and take your questions in real time.

Why It's Worth Your Time
Tuning tools have come a long way in 2026.
ECUs that once needed outside specialist unlocking can more and more often be handled in-house. New OBD and Bench protocols are reshaping workflows, datalogging is being built more tightly into tools, and manufacturers keep extending support for newer ECU and TCU platforms.
For a tuning business, those changes decide which vehicles you can take on, how fast you finish a job and whether you have to send work out.
Keeping track of it all is the hard part.
This session lets you hear straight from the Viezu team about what we're seeing, learn how features work in real-world use and ask about the tools and applications that matter to your shop.
Topics on the Agenda
We expect to cover:
- What's new across the pro tuning tool market
- Key ECU and TCU protocol releases
- Developments in ECU unlocking
- OBD, Bench and Boot tuning
- Recent shifts in vehicle and ECU coverage
- Features and capabilities of specific tools
- Datalogging and diagnostic functions
- Master and Slave tools
- Picking the right tool for a given application
- When each connection method is needed
- How new tool developments affect shop workflow
- Questions about current and future tool investment
Since it's a live Q&A, attendees' questions will help steer where the conversation goes.
What the Session Covers
Recent Tool Developments
The tuning tool market has been busy in 2026. We can discuss recent developments on platforms including:
- Alientech KESS3 and Unlock Module
- Magic Motorsport FLEX and Korhex
- AutoTuner
- Dimsport
- FormulaFlash
- StageX and related tuning software
Just bought a tool, thinking about adding a platform or simply curious how the latest changes could affect your shop? This is your chance to ask.
Questions About Specific Tools
A big plus of this webinar: it isn't tied to one tool brand.
Ask about what you use now, what you're thinking of buying, or the applications you're trying to support. For example:
- Which tool supports a certain ECU?
- Can a vehicle be done over OBD, Bench or Boot?
- What does a recent protocol update actually let you do?
- Will you need extra hardware or activations?
- How do competing solutions really differ in practice?
- Is Master or Slave right for your business?
- Which tool best complements the gear you already have?
- How can you widen the range of vehicles you can tune?
We'll get through as many as we can.
Getting to Know the Viezu File Portal
The other half of the webinar is dedicated to the Viezu File Portal.
If you use Viezu's file-writing services, the portal sits at the heart of how files are requested and delivered. We'll show how it works and how to get the most out of it, including:
- Submitting a tuning file
- Choosing the correct tuning request
- Entering vehicle and ECU details
- Adding notes and requirements
- Explaining what the vehicle needs
- Managing files you've submitted
- Receiving finished tuning files
- Asking for revisions or technical help
- What information our file writers need
- Cutting down delays and needless back-and-forth
- Getting more from the Viezu tuning file service
Good Information Makes Better Files
Every successful file request starts with solid information.
The vehicle spec, ECU details, modifications, diagnostic data and what the customer wants can all shape the calibration.
We'll cover what the file-writing team finds useful and how giving the right details up front makes the whole process faster and simpler.
Your Questions, Answered Live
This isn't an hour-long sales pitch. A big chunk of the session is reserved for your questions, and you'll have access to:
Paul Busby – CEO: the wider tuning industry, tool developments, where professional tuning is headed and the business side of running a tuning company.
Simon White – Managing Director: deep hands-on technical tuning experience, covering tool functions, ECU access, tuning workflows and technical applications.
Ian Armstrong – Head of Sales & Commercial Operations: tool options, purchasing, activations, subscriptions, file services and choosing the right equipment for your business.
Between them, you can ask technical, practical and commercial questions all in one session.
