Hey there,

I have a 2006 GTI (DSG) with the [1K0 907 115 S] factory ECU currently installed. I would like a spare ECU to mess around with and have a spare [1K0 907 115 B] ECU left over from another project.

Would I be able to just bench flash the 115S ECU with the 115B file, and then Immo it off and run it in the car like normal?

From what I understand there is a section of code from 0x6C00 to 0x7003 that would need to be brought over from the original ECU file as well so that the EEPROM Immo doesn't get salty with the code in the flash dump.

Thanks!

I think my answer was too long but recently I ran into a problem cloning my ECu. So on all the forums they write that it is IMPOSSIBLE to clone an ECU 115L into a 115K and so on. The ECU should be exactly the same 115L and 115L.
But to hell with all the rules. I took my eeprom and my FLASH, loaded my EEPROM into the new ECU, installed it on the car. Next, using ODIS, I loaded a clean FLASH file in .SGO format and everything worked. A 115K box filled with 115L works great.

There is no wonder and no miracle  Smiley
because both K and L software using the same hardware ecu number - 8P0907115B

LOL next thing you know is there's gonna be a metric fuckton of AXX owners here who will have flashed BWA software in their ECU and will be dead in the water with immo locked Smiley but hey what do I know about that?

Flash with what? BDM?
Because you can't enter OBD bootloader if immo is not authorized.

12 years ago I did port flash on bench after doing immo off by lifting the eeprom with hot air and dumping. I didn't have a bdm tool yet, and now none need bdm because we have bench mode lol.

Not entirely true, it's possible to fuck up the ecu so that service mode does not work, but bdm still does.

It wasn't a literal statement, if your tools have gpt protocol Im sure they will do BDM too if you wanna peel it open... My point was 99% of the time these days it's not needed with legitimate tools.
