I'm back again... The car that I put this cluster in got totaled But I kept the cluster and wanna put it in the new car. I already got a dump of the current cluster in the new car. Any chance someone could transfer the important stuff from the stock cluster to the mfa cluster? I've attached bin files of both clusters.

Diff the previous two files, then use those addresses... if you look a few posts back there was an example diff.

bump again. attempted adapting the cluster to the car today via vcds, as expected the cluster put up the same fight it did going into my old jetta. I then flashed the halfway done file that I was able to get done, and no different. With the immo id, vin, and skc on there I should've been able to adapt the keys yes? I keep on getting an error when trying to clear the current keys attached to the cluster.


Maybe someone else can finish the file I couldn't?

That's for the ecu though, I tried getting an eeprom dump of the ecu using that tool but it didn't wanna work for me. From that thread it seems all that's left that I need to transfer is the key information. Which I don't know where that's located in the eeprom. If I could I would compare the original MFA eeprom and the eeprom set up for my old car to find what blocks that info is located, but as I said.. the 03 cluster's eeprom seems to be slightly different than the mfa cluster's eeprom, so I'm sure it's not in the same location.

If I remember correctly VDO clusters from something like V6x uses a different processor, them eeprom content have different organization. I had similar situation going from a VDO V55 to a VDO V75 one. It is not that easy to just copy eeprom zones. I think that adaptation will be the best option in this case.
