Maybe a very stupid question but, can i flash a 512kb file on a 1024kb ecu, and still have a functional ecu? 
I have a spare 29f800 ecu gathering dust, thats why Im asking.

Thanks!

If it's an S4 ecu, yes. Just fill the remaining space with FF"s so the file is 1024, or just double the file up in a hex editor and then flash it. If we're talking 1.8t, no. The 512kb ecu's are different internally.

Thanks for quick answer!

The car is an S3 APY 2000 and the spare ECU is a BAM 2001, so this probably not work...
