The Continental EMS3161 is an engine control unit used in cars from makes such as Renault, Dacia and Nissan. Prime Chiptuning always builds EMS3161 files from the original read of the vehicle; generic files are not used.
Solutions offered for this ECU family include Stage 1 Remap, DPF Delete, DTC / Fault Code Removal and Decat / Catalyst Delete. Which ones apply to your vehicle depends on the exact ECU variant, software version and engine; we check this from the read file before the work starts.
How a EMS3161 remap is done
- The EMS3161 is read by OBD, bench or boot depending on the variant, and the original software is backed up.
- The original file is modified for the vehicle, engine and requested solution; the checksum is corrected.
- The file is written, fault codes are checked and the vehicle is road tested.
- The original backup is kept, so the vehicle can be returned to factory software at any time.
