Oh ! Now we are getting serious there are tool32 jobs to erase some, but there are routines to log that you erased stats like the above DCT wear data. To erase the latter probably requires some good investigative work and I don't have any tools to explore further.

FASTA data is data from many ECUs...The location of the various ECUs stat data and other "interesting" data is unknown to me, wether it resides in each ECU uC/Flash or rather collected in a central embedded FLASH storage so it survives flashes/erasure and then retrieved via FASTA service... I know that the FASTA routines queries almost every ECU for lots of data but it's too easy to assume that every ECU stores it's non volatile info, or maybe it does and then it becomes more difficult to erase data on dozens of ECUs...

I can devise few experiments to find out more, but my current goal is information search only !
PS: the guy that speaks base64 probably knows this stuff
