well is it an fsi or tsi? 08 was a half year. if its an fsi youll need to immo off the ecu by reading the 95160 chip inside the ecu. Normally done by bdm (ktag, bdm100, new genious, pcm flash an and a handful of other programs). However, if youre handy with soldering tool ive lifted the chip and dumped it using a chip burner too using hot air. If you manage to read the dumps post them here and myself or another member can immo off it for you. Tsi is tricore and is similar and requires a similar process but no option to lift a eeprom to extract.
