All,
Is there some secret to finding codewords?  I need to locate a few to remove rear O2 on a 06a906032DL.  I've searched the site pretty well, and haven't found much direction aside from someone hinting that codewords were arranged alphabetically.

Thanks!  -- sorry if this is a real dumb/obvious thing

There are patterns in the hex that are the same for most codewords.

By patterns, I mean 30 digit hex strings that have differences between files, but enough similarities to find what you need if you're adept at recognizing them. It's not easy.

Best bet, find a well defined similar file, or post up what you need. I will help when I can.

Thanks very much -- I assume the HS file is probably very similar to the DL (HS is well defined), so i'll start doing some comparison tonight. 

Is the order usually consistent?  I think you were the one that mentioned something in a post buried somewhere about the codewords being alphabetically organized.  Am i reading into that too much in assuming the codwords are usually organized in the same order?

you need DR file
if codewords are not the same, use 'beyond compare 3' to find right offset

They are alphabetic, but not every file has all the same codewords.

I've moved the questions below regarding these code words to a separate thread to keep things on topic and maybe get a little more visibility: http://nefariousmotorsports.com/forum/index.php?topic=4848.0title=

first, thanks for all the help so far.

That XDF for the 06a906032DR is incredibly complete and matches up very well -- thanks!

I'm following the wiki steps for rear O2 removal (i think pulled from phila_dot's findings).  I found 2 of the codewords that were not in the XDF.  the rest, i'm not sure if they apply to 1.8t or not?  I'm using the HN map pack as a reference and just looking for patters/values that match up.  Could you possibly verify the 2 i found and maybe give me some guidance on the rest?

Found:
CWDLSAHK - 0x186F7 val: 9 (i think this should be changed to 0)
CWKONLS - 0x181BB val: 3 (i think this should be changed to 1 for 1.8t)

Can't find (don't have any reference map pack for 1.8t that has these): CDLSHV, CLRHK, CLRKA
