  1. I was wondering if Windows was causing the glitch, so I rebooted back into MacOS and the download page is unchanged. I am working out of MacOS now. "This is downloads2" is nothing more than a text description. I also looked at the source data and it simply is not loading the same page that you see on your own computer Bill. If it is a required prerequisite to purchase a License before a person can download and sample the trial version, seems somewhat short sighted. Perhaps it is simply an oversight, as no doubt the site admins would remain logged in, and so may be entirely blissfully unaware that the Free Demo is entirely inaccessible to potential clients. Even trying to find the downloads page was a nightmare in itself, requiring me to navigate to the FAQ page, then System Requirements, then to click on Net4.7.1 to be then linked onto the blissfully empty Downloads Page.
  2. I was previously running the Demo version on a 2010 MacBook Pro with Bootcamp Windows 10. I did have to disable one of the Video cards to make it run Windows happily. Unfortunately the logic board died a couple of weeks ago, so I have transferred my SSD drive over to a new to me 2012 MacBook Pro, which I am currently using. I don't know how to get to the downloads page that you have screenshot, because this is what the downloads page looks like when I open it up:
  3. I had a similar issue with a failing TPS. Checked out fine with the multimeter if you opened it slowly. Fast movements would make it go open circuit, including backing off the throttle, which confused the computer and would then keep the convertor clutch locked, even if I was pulling up to a stop sign, unless I blipped the throttle just before coming to a stop, to make the computer unlock the convertor clutch. Otherwise, I would check the earth point between the engine and battery, clean and or replace the fuel filter, and check for fuel pressure output to see if some of the issues are being caused by a failing fuel pump.
  4. Is the replacement 3576 turbo a Genuine Garrett or is it a Genuine Imitation China Turbo..? The reason I ask is that I have been road tuning, for a friend, a Dedicated LPG AU2 fitted with an imitation China Ebay 3582 mounted on a BA XR6T Manifold. Yes it is an AU SOHC Intech 6. It really had us chasing our tails with how inconsistent the car would behave and how it would respond to changes in the timing and how that would also affect the mixtures. It turned out that the wastegate flap was too large for the recessed seat the manufacturer had machined into the Turbine housing, and as a result the flapper sometimes catching on the inside of the wastegate port and not sealing, or sometimes the flap would catch on the lip and then it would not seal shut again, and then even more messed up, the manufacturer had welded the wastegate Arm onto the shaft in such a position that when the wastegate actually sealed against it's seat, then it would finally make boost and the actuator rod would pass so close to the centreline of the pivot point, the shaft, that the actuator had almost gone over centre, and the actuator spring was unable to pull the wastegate closed, unless the car somehow hit a large enough bump on the road, then the wastegate would suddenly snap closed again. Because the wastegate was behaving so erratically, the exhaust back pressure would change depending on how far open the wastegate had gotten stuck, which then changed Idle fuel mixtures, part throttle mixtures, cruising mixtures as well as how much timing the engine would take even without boost. After dismantling the wastegate, and re-machining the Wastegate seat larger, shimming the flapper on the arm to stop it flopping over far enough to catch on the inside edge of the wastegate port, and welding the wastegate actuator arm on in the same orientation as the Factory Garrett GT3582R, so the arm moves from 2 O clock position when closed to 4 O clock position with the wastegate wide open, with the 12 O clock position pointing towards the wastegate actuator. Only then was I finally able to stabilize the Fuel mixtures, and from there adjust the timing. Even a blocked Catalytic Convertor or Collapsed internals in a muffler could be causing you grief...
  5. Did you get this sorted out yet? I had an AU 1.5 XR6 that had a similar issue. Simplest fix was to replace the BEM with another identical Colour BEM and also swap out the ignition barrel, door lock and key to the lock barrels and key from the donor car which was already programmed to the BEM. I then used Forscan with the free extended license with an OBD LinkEx cable to synchronize the modules and it fired right up. I did try to reprogram the original BEM, but Forscan was unable to reprogram the BEM. This became quite clear when the Door locks would not cycle at the beginning of the Key Reprogramming operation.
  6. Now is this only happening because I have not as of yet purchased PCMTEC? Up until now I have been using the demo Version to show to friends who have expressed an interest in Purchasing the PCMTEC software to use on their own cars. I hope to soon purchase a Professional License for PCMTEC but have been holding out for the moment as the Demo was extremely glitchy running on my Dual boot 2010 Macbook Pro. Especially when compared to VCM Editor from HP Tuners, which has so far been nothing but rock solid stable...
  7. Thank you for the Link to download version 2.11. I could not for the life of me find a single link on the website to download any versions of PCMTEC for download on the website. Even the downloads page is devoid of any links to download the software. After downloading and installing PCMTEC release 2.11, I was able to run the program, and then sign in, but now this is what happens...
  8. Admin edit: The Demo version is no longer available. Unfortunately my demo software is refusing to allow me to log in claiming I need to update to the latest version: 3.00 from www.pcmtec.com/downloads going to this page I have been unable to find any download link on this page.
