I guess I should stop driving like a grandma. :) And it's very difficult to build an ICE vehicle that is that efficient and that people also want to buy, at least in the US. Which would make the Rube Goldberg hybrid power train even more complex, thus more expensive to buy and more expensive...

At least some do. Some of the later clusters (VWK503 I think) have a checksum that needs to match the odometer block. Others (Bosch RB8) store the odometer using a different format. I don't know all the EEPROM details of all the clusters that kw1281test supports, mostly just where the SKC is...

Thanks for the report. kw1281test wasn't recognizing "1JE920827" as a cluster part number because it was expecting the 3rd character to be a digit. Should be fixed in version 0.85: https://github.com/gmenounos/kw1281test/releases/tag/v0.85-beta

I have a 99.5 Golf that I upgraded to an Immo3 cluster a few years ago. You can change the soft coding of the CAN Gateway (address 19) to tell the cluster that your car has no airbags. Just subtract 4 from whatever the current value is. The other issue that you're going to run into is the...

Years ago I bought this hitch from someone on VWVortex: https://www.vwvortex.com/threads/fs-custom-euro-style-hitch-hidden-vertical-drawbar-fl.7245456/#post-88304102 I never got around to installing it. Here are a couple of photos (but the ones from Vortex are better)...

Limited use: We've got 9,900 miles on ours since January and we use it for almost all driving. Just did a 720 mile road trip last weekend and another 180 miles today and both were easy. The only thing I'm not going to use it for yet is towing. Will use the Golf for that for now (not so much...

Actually, just download this new release and see if the GetSKC command works for your cluster (make sure to use 9600 baud since it's a Beetle): https://github.com/gmenounos/kw1281test/releases/tag/v0.83-beta

Try this and see if it downloads the EEPROM from the cluster: kw1281test com1 9600 17 DumpMarelliMem 3072 1024

They were wagon springs, not towing springs. I have not had good luck with Suplex rear springs. I've had several break at the same spot at the bottom of the spring. 2 different cars: https://forums.tdiclub.com/index.php?threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-mkiv-today.452221/page-229#post-5661134...

Installed the Westfalia hitch on the Golf. Also replaced the stock taillights with GTI tails that I bought a while back. I think they look better on a black car than the stock lights. Finally replaced both broken springs with Lesjöfors wagon springs. Hopefully they'll last longer than the...

I think right now, if you want to get an EV to use for mostly around town and short (100 mile or less) trips, and have a level 2 charger at home or work, probably most of them would be fine. If you want an EV but need to do longer road trips, can stomach buying a car from a company run by a...

Here is the only needle sweep info that I'm aware of: http://www.graeme86.com/sweep501mh/sweep501mh.html http://www.graeme86.com/sweep503mh/sweep503mh.html

I think your SKC is 05722. Can you verify?

Can you share the .bin file that was saved?

As far as I know, MKIV needle sweep is only possible on VDO clusters.

I've never seen a BPV cluster before. I did some searching and I think it's a Bosch/Motometer cluster instead of the usual VDO. You can try the following and see if it works better: kw1281test.exe COM2 10400 17 DumpRBxMem 66560 1024

So, can you try the following steps exactly and let us know if it worked or not? (Substitute the appropriate COM port and SKC) Insert key #1 in the ignition, turned to "on" with the engine off. The immobilizer light is on. Run "AdaptationSave" command: kw1281test.exe com1 10400 17...
