I've been emailing bm3 to see if my dme is locked and I bought the cable and ran the program, took a screen shot and yup, mine is locked. I kinda knew already as I bought the car in December and took it in for Service in March. They can unlock it if I send it in to them but I would need to get my B5 S4 fixed. Power steering leak! And the hose is discontinued! How is that possible!

For clarity's sake (I'm sure you know this but others may not)

ALL DMEs (cars computer) are locked. Earlier versions can be unlocked at home using your tuner of choices software - later versions must be sent to the tuner to be unlocked at their shop.

Once unlocked the DME is able to be loaded with your tuners performance software.

Hope this helps :-)

I'm lucky enough to have Mission Performance about an hour from the house - so I'll be heading there next week to have my car unlocked and flashed
