How are you guys and gals doing, so, long story short, at my shop we have a 2005 audi a6 with what seems like a possible bad ecu due to dtc P2404 no going away, seems like ground is not good at pin 24 I believe the tech said. I have a junk 05 a6 here that i would like to use as a donor car for the ecu. I tried installing it but of course immo disabled any starting attempts. I read on other audi forums that this would be the place to come for help with this and possible skc's...is this possible or am I screwed? Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer me.

If it's a 4.2, no problem. If it's a 3.2 with a simos6 ecu, you're semi boned.

What generation immobilizer is it?
With both clusters and the right tools you can make it work.

You are not going to like the answer. You're going to need real tools, not clones. I think vagtacho can do it. Maybe f1torrents will chime in.

i really dont think VT will pull pins from that cluster. avdi has tons more features and does all immo's. ross tech says this about c/r: As a general rule, VW models using Immo 4A (with Adaptation) may have Serial Numbers that contain VWZ (for Example VWZ7Z0G7051888). VW models using VWX (for Example VWX7Z0G7051888) "or ones without a Serial Number shown at all, do not use Adaptation and will have the revolving "Challenge" Value in Advanced ID. Those systems using a Challenge Value are not considered supported at this time. but they list a procedure for adapting, http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/Immobilizer_IV_ECU_Swapping |
