Deleting directly from the X4?  What error are you getting?  Firmware up to date?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Yes, X4 hooked to computer and updater software open where you can add or delete custom tunes.  There is no error number...just says "failed."   I guess I need to return to stock and try the update?

I have the same problem, but only with one of my tunes.  The others can be deleted without issue.

That might work ... not sure why you'd HAVE to return to stock.  What version of Windows are you using?  Windows 10 has been known to throw a curveball now and again.  The updater definitely recognizes the X4 without any issues, right?  How many unlocks do you have left on the X4?  wondering if somehow it is "locked"?

I am sure AJP/FoMoCo/SBS/... will know the answer tho.

My X4 is new and has only been married to my car.  I am still on Windows 8.1 and I have added several tunes over the past week or so and even deleted a couple earlier.  I just added a new tune with no issues and decided to delete those that I knew I wouldn't use but cannot get them deleted from the device.   

I returned my car to stock since it is going to the dealer for warranty work.   Before doing that, I did click on the "check for updates" tab on the X4 and got a warning to make sure the car had been returned to stock prior to checking for updates.

Hopefully it was a glitch but glitches on these devices make me nervous, call me a Nervous Nellie, LOL.  The connection between tune files and firmware is a bit screwy.

If the issue continues, you may want to RMA the device, I believe directly thru SCT.  Phone being the best way to contact.

I returned the car to stock, did a factory reset wiping out all of the tunes that were on the device and reloaded just the ones that I wanted.   

I will not likely ever reach the 10 maximum tunes that it holds now.

Aint gonna knock it if it works!
