Did anyone have their v2 access port stolen???

Just like the title says ... I recently aquired an access port and I believe all signs point to it being stolen. Please let me know. Who ever claims it has to prove its there's and married to their car.


I FORGOT TO STATE THAT I LIVE IN HAWYARD!

Call cobb they can find out where it was sold from and then have the place find out to whom it was sold who they can then contact.

Any chance you know who the person that "sold" it to you was? perhaps a little I-club justice visited on a thief if you have a name/number/address (only need one)

Well I didnt buy. It was given to me by some random guy around my neighbor hood. He said he had one and was going to play with it. Then he just gave it to me.

I don't suspect him, but pretty positive that the people he is affiliated with are. He said he got it from someone else for free and I think he was just trying to get rid of it.

very weird maybe he thought one of his friends stole it from you (obviously stole it from someone else) and was trying to give it back without getting in trouble?

Thanks! Please let us know what you find out from Cobb, as i'm sure many AP owners are curious to know if they offer any kind of recovery service for reportedly stolen AP.

OK UPDATE ...I got off the phone with cobb.

so good news that it doesnt belong to any suby/evo owners. Its for a honda civic SI.

Bad news is that still havent havent the rightful owner, But for future reference with any AP purchase keep your serial number or register it with cobb because you can report to COBB that it has been stolen.

thank you for the info the day I got mine I made sure I kept the box and serial number in a safe place just for this reason and now that you have confirmed with them.. its good.

Did they say if they blacklist accessports so that the moment its hooked up to a computer... it gets "bricked"?

Unfortunately they didn't say anything about black listing the AP. the guy one the phone was actually saying maybe you should try to sell it to some honda owner lol and started laughing. And then mention it's basically useless if it's married. Unless someone pays Cobb to reflash it.
