Hi all
First post so be gentle.
I have an R32 equipped Golf 4 Motion that when the original conversion was done (by a previous owner) the Immo3 in the ME7.1.1 ECU was 'switched off'
Now for a friend who has recently performed an R32 conversion into his 4 Motion I recently pulled the SKC from the ME7.1.1 ECU in order that we could match the ECU to his 4 Motion intrument cluster, which incidentallly worked without issue.
Now this got me thinking regarding my own existing Immo 3 'Off' Me7.1.1 ECU. Can I simply read the existing PIN from my Me7.1.1 Immo3 EPROM bin file, re-enable the IMMO3, update the checksums, write the bin file back to the EPROM and then match the now reenabled ME7.1.1 ECu to my instrument cluster?
This seems very simple in principle so what am I overlooking here and what should I be wary of?
Just had a look at the bin from the Immob EPROM and all the fields are blank with the PINs being set at FF FF and no VIN or IMMOB ID info.
Furthermore can I clarify - Are the RFID chip in the keys queried by the instument cluster or by the ENGINE ECU?
I also have a thought that the ECU has an aftermarket tune on it - I've read that the calibration is typically locked to the car - so is this accomplished using the IMMO3 3 EPROM data meaning in short I'm hence unable to re-enable my Immo 3?
