To understand more
On Renault vehicles manufactured from 2021 onwards, the manufacturer has implemented security measures that prevent reading the Getrag 6DCT451 control unit through the standard OBD port. This is a form of anti-tuning protection. Reading in BENCH mode bypasses this diagnostic restriction by establishing a direct connection to the ECU's processor and internal memory.
