    Default e38/tcm combo vin license

    I have an e38 and tcm and they are from different vehicles. I was wondering if I can use 1 vin license to license both? Or do I have to buy 2 credits? They are from different vin numbers. Thanks

    1 VIN license licenses the PCM/ECM and TCM seperately. I have tuned a few PCMs and have used the TCM license slots for other vehicles. VIN doesnt matter with EFILive at ALL. The controller's serial number is.

    How do I do this? This e38 and t42 tcm are in a project ly6 car. At first I only had the e38, I got I lincense for it to take the vats out. I recently got ahold of a t42 4l80e tcm and want to make changes in the tcm tune and its telling me that I need a license for it. So do I need 2 licenses?

    Pretty easy, the software will prompt you to license the first time you go to flash it. Simply say yes and it will license it. It will NOT use 2 licenses, it will use the TCM slot of the 1st license.
