When your car is upgraded, each target ECU is first programmed to the new i-step version, and then VO Coded using the car FA to determine what codes are set. It's during the VO Code that your FDL coding is wiped.
I can't be certain where 8TL came from. If you didn't add it manually, and its not part of your original factory order, then the assumption has to be that it was added during an i-step upgrade.
