Flex version 7.52.0.0 is now available
With the release of version 7.52.0.0, Flex introduces Bench mode for Bosch DQ500 Gen2 TCMs, which are increasingly widespread on the latest generation and high-performance VAG vehicles.
This update also extends support to Bosch DQ38x (2022+) and ZF AL552 Gen2 (2022+) automatic transmissions, expanding coverage across the most recent platforms.
Bench mode ensures full control during read and write operations, ensuring high standards of precision and reliability.
In particular, support for DQ500 Gen2 represents a strategic evolution toward the most modern DSG transmissions, enabling new opportunities for tuning and advanced diagnostics.
With this release, Flex confirms itself as a benchmark solution for the professional management of next-generation TCMs in Bench mode.
Moreover, the protocol allows transmission control module cloning, provided that the Bosch Part Number detected during identification is identical on both TCMs.

- Audi RS6 (C8) 4.0 V8 Twin-Turbo 600PS
- Cupra Formentor (II) 2.0L TSI 250PS
