Cross flashing what are the diferences
« on: January 14, 2016, 11:24:26 AM »
Hello im new here!
i would like to know, if someone knows and can help me, why is not posible to cross flash an Audi .bin into a VW ecu and make it work!
is there a diference in the wiring on the car? are the ECUS different? can i use a Audi a4 in my 2002 golf? both are 1.8t both manual transmission. practicaly the same but diferent when talking about ECU!
i would really apreciate if someone can shed some light on this matter!

the actual question is why the ecu got bricked after writing an audi .bin onto the vw ECU.
Im not the guru on the matter thats why i reach out to the community!
does anyone have the patience to elaborate?

If you are broke or expecting free handouts DO NOT message me. I'll probably put you on blast if you do.
