I've been asked to repair a VIN on a ME 7.1.1 from a mk4 GLI. The mk4 GLI they have originally came with a 2.8 VR6, which IIRC was ME7.1. The engine is in, and I was told the ME7.1.1 they have was flashed for the 3.2 (This alone, I'm not sure what ECUs work for this type of swap to start with) and had an immo off. I'm assuming it won't start since they are contacting me. This started out as asking about a VIN repair, as they think that the VIN was not programmed at all, or wrong VIN was. However, I don't think this would even matter in an immo off application? Unless the mk4 cluster is doing something that I am unaware of maybe.... not sure what that would even be though.
I have not done this particular swap before. But I know the 7.1.1 has 3 HW revisions. I am unsure if a specific one is needed or not, could be part of the issue. I also don't know what the correct way to do this is, so I am trying to lookup what I can now. Not finding a ton of information though.
Asking for PNs since I wasn't provided anything.
Anyone have any input or ideas on this? Hoping maybe someone has done this swap before.
Edit: Sorry, mixed up r32 and GLI. So, was a GLI with a 2.8 vr6, now has a 3.2 from an r32.
