Platform coverage
EA888 Gen 3+ log analysis with code-level honesty.
EA888 is a family, not one identical engine. ECU software, market, model year, drivetrain, sensor set, and log source affect what can be measured.
What beta coverage means
The workspace is designed around VAG EA888 Gen 3+ owners and can record engine code, model year, ECU software, gearbox, fuel, tune state, and signal availability. It will not pretend that a missing channel is present.

Common signal groups & units
Sportline supports both Metric (European/International) and Imperial (US/UK) telemetry formats across all log inspections:
Do not infer fitment from a badge
Use the exact engine code and ECU context from the vehicle record. “Gen 3” or “Gen 4” alone is not enough to promise a signal, calibration interpretation, or repair outcome.
