                      obdexpress.co.uk engineer offers the suggestion as below:

                      You need to perform Tprot off patch on your flash file.

                      You must manually correct the tprot. Writing is usually corrected starting at 63%. From now on, if so, it's because tprot corrects you well.

                      After correcting tprot, make checksum with winols and turn off checksum in PCMTUNER Magic Car Tool.

                      Here is the detailed instruction.

                      Step 1: Download and install FlexHEX

                      Access http://www.flexhex.com to download the FLEXHEX installation file (FlexHEX Editor Version 2.7)

                      Operating system: Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/7/8/10

                      After downloading, go to install the FLEXHEX setup

                      Accept license agreement>> Choose destination folder>> Install

                      Wait a moment till the installation process is completed.
