Can BU perform flashes, full I-Level updates, VIN Updates of old / second hand ECU's? or just Coding?

No need for it to, as that can be done direct with only E-Sys & PSdZData.

How ? My launcher doesn’t work anymore. If this is the case I can purchase BU for coding only

You know you can install and run esys natively without any launchers? And it’s free. If you want a new launcher solution esys ultra is a great tool. Equally, as Shawn said those functions are available for free and BU can be used for coding.

Never saw need for Ultra, why do you recommend?

I can give you three why I'm using it:

1. Very nice one click fa,fp,svt,istep and all ncd backup with creation of folders per module (no more looking for what is kombi and what is acsm and so on)
2. Overall speed (reading out cafd, calculating TAL or coding verification is blistering fast comparing to stock esys or other launchers)
3. Nice options when it comes to ncd comparison

At the same time I use BU for DTC's and FA editing. When it comes to fdl editing then I prefer Esys. I'm looking also for FSC back up to more stable, since this is very nice feature. I've still have not tested "backup" option in BU though.

Not claiming that one is better then another, I'm simply happy to have both
