It literally just happened to me and no recovery option was available. I sent in a ticket with logs and all that. They just said I need a new ecu and gave me 2.credits to relicense the new one, but yeah. Reprogrammed the ecu with oem tools and everything matches properly, now I'm fighting theft deterrent problems. A calibration write should not have done this and all I got was two credits for tuning a vehicle I already paid to tune, and then basically I'm on my own.... I'm so frikkin pissed.
