Default S40 D2 ECU (software)
Hi all,

I would like to backup my entire ECU (software) but I couldn't find any info so far.
I would be much appreciated if someone could guide me, or point me to an article about how to do it.

Regards!

I understand your concerns but I'm not gonna tweak it. Just a software back up for just in case. I guess it's not that risky with the proper tools and procedure.
