It's a little more complicated than just having the Cobb AP
Simply put, the device itself doesn't do either of the items you are wanting to do.

It's the software that can downloaded from Cobb called Access Tuner Race that has the ability to do those things you want to do - providing you know how.

The Cobb AP can then load the saved Map from the ATR software to your ECU.

The COBB AP can NOT do what you want on it's own.
Anyone that tells you otherwise is an idiot.

Yeah clearly you understood that
Jebuz dude I'm just trying to help you by making you aware that the Cobb AP will not make your car run smoother or remove a CEL.

Anyway you would be surprised at how many people do not realize they actually need to create their own custom ecu map using the ATR software to adjust RPM limits, idle speed, fan speeds, Mask Cells, modify fuel tables, etc.

But clearly you already know how to do these things so I don't expect to see you posting a new thread on how to use ATR software to or mask a cell or set the run smoother option.
