Hey everyone. I'm wrapping up my summer project of swapping a EU market 1.9TDI engine into my NA market 2005 A4 1.8TQ. Currently getting stuck on the adaptation between cluster and ecu. For reference, I'm using a genuine Ross-Tech HEX+CAN cable with their VCP drivers
Both the ECU and the cluster are new to me, and come from different donor cars. I pulled the cluster SKC with VAG EEPROM Programmer 1.19g, and then later got the ECU SKC with the help of VAG K_CAN Commander v2.5
Cluster SKC is 1240
ECU SKC is 8602
I followed the Ross-Tech instructions for new cluster adaptation:
Instruments-17, then Login-11 and entered 01240. Then I go into Adaptation-10, Channel 050 -> Read. The stored value is 32000. In the New Value field I enter in the ECU SKC (08602), click Test and then the fields up above show "System" "Not OK".
Here's the log from that:

I've tried this numerous times, it always ends the same way. Swapped batteries because mine was getting pretty drained and the result was the same. VCDS auto scan is absolutely ripe with codes mostly refering to insufficient voltage (this log was recorded on the swapped in battery, not the dying one btw).
Attached are the encrypted cluster eeprom dump, the ecu eeprom dump and the full VCDS auto-scan log.
My car has been out of commission for months, so I'm reeeeally looking forward to driving it again. I'd rather get the adaptation to stick, but if anyone can just delete the immo from my cluster dump, I'm willing to write that and go without an immobilizer until I can sort out the root issue!
