How it works

  1. Read your ECU

    With KESS, KTAG, AutoTuner or Flex. Keep the read: it is your way back.

  2. Match the numbers

    Your read must show hardware 169WM and software 512421.

  3. Pay and download

    Card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. The file is in your account straight away.

  4. Write it and drive

    Write it back the way you read it. Not right for your car? We correct it free.

What the car needs

Required modifications: Factory, Diesel.

Hardware

  • Factory hardware: no modifications required

Software / calibration

  • OEM calibration restored (recovery / immobiliser / coding work)

Original files are used to revert to factory state, repair after a faulty tune, or recover an ECU before service work.

Engine performance matrix

Power, torque and fuel-economy figures for every tuning stage on this engine, sourced from the tuning-database Gains API. Values are healthy-engine crank numbers; real on-road gains vary with fuel, altitude and mechanical condition.

Fuel economy gain (vs. factory map, same driving profile): combined cycle −8% , full-load cruise −12%. Diesel calibrations typically net bigger combined-cycle savings thanks to shorter duty-cycle on low-load driving.

About this calibration file

This is the factory (original) ECU calibration for the 2013 Mercedes-Benz A160 2.0L Turbo Diesel, extracted from a genuine stock control unit. Use it as a verified backup before flashing any performance tune, or as a reference when recovering an ECU from a failed write.

This file matches a Bosch ECU with hardware number CR40-640-6GA1-169WM-060KW-EU5DPF-002 and software version 512421. Verify both identifiers in your flashing tool before writing — an ID mismatch is the most common cause of a bricked ECU. If you are unsure, upload a read of your original file via the file-request wizard and our engineers will confirm compatibility before you flash.

The file is delivered as a ready-to-flash BIN (and ORI backup where applicable) compatible with all major tools — KESS V2/V3, KTAG, AutoTuner, CMDFlash, Dimsport New Genius, MPPS, Flex, BFlash, PCMFlash, MMFlash — via OBD, bench or boot-mode as supported by your ECU family. Checksums are pre-computed and verified; no additional checksum tool is required. All files include a free revision if post-flash logs reveal a fuelling, boost or EGT issue.

Frequently asked questions

The file is written for the exact ECU hardware CR40-640-6GA1-169WM-060KW-EU5DPF-002 (Bosch) listed in the specifications. Read your ECU with any supported tool (KESS, KTAG, AutoTuner, CMD, etc.) and compare the hardware + software numbers against the ones on this page. If they match exactly, the file is a direct fit. If you're not 100% sure, upload your original read via the file-request wizard and our engineers will confirm within minutes — no cost, no obligation.

Two reasons. First, if your ECU write failed mid-flash and you need a verified stock image to recover from — this file restores the unit to the exact calibration it left the factory with. Second, if you plan to experiment with a tune and want a known-good rollback point that is guaranteed identical to a Mercedes-Benz dealer programming.

Instant. As soon as the payment clears, the file appears under Downloads in your account and the link is emailed to you. It does not expire: sign in and download it again whenever you need it.

Pre-corrected. Every tuning file we sell is processed through CHKSuite (our in-house checksum engine) before it reaches your download link. You can flash it directly with KESS, KTAG, AutoTuner, CMD, Dimsport or any other supported tool — no extra checksum step required. A zero-CRC write to a modern Bosch/Siemens/Delphi ECU bricks the unit, so this is non-negotiable.

Contact us on WhatsApp or through the dashboard support thread. Free revisions are included for the same stage on the same ECU — send us a live log (via VCDS, INPA, EcuConnect, OBDeleven or similar) and we'll adjust timing, boost, rail pressure or smoke limits and re-issue the file. A failed flash itself (write aborted, bricked ECU) is recoverable with our Original file and a bench tool.
