Delete

[Randomhomelesstdibeetlegu]

Does anyone do this still? I need to do some logging AND tear apart the QA on my Bosch reman pump. I don't have vag-com and don't feel like screwing Uwe by using a hacked copy until I can afford a professional unit.

I could leave a cash deposit covering it etc.

My quantity adjuster has to come apart due to repeating p1561 and the VAG is required to hammer it back to where it should be even if marked (from what I read.)


TIA!

I've got some hex-com ones if you need. That and an rs232 to usb adaptor would be a good cheap way to get genuine vcds.

If I had seen this sooner, I could have "rented" my VCDS cable.
Let me know if you still need one.

I saw a cable for sale. Looks like he bought the one with 3 uses, used it once and is selling his two uses…
But I thought the licensing is tied to his computer, so it wouldn’t even work on mine??
Am I wrong?

 

[dieseldonato]

The license is with the cable.

Okay, follow up question.
I am being told that there was recently a new engine installed, and after that installation the “cat says the computer is locked”

Smarter than my cat

Maybe the ECU was swapped as well and the VIN limit was reached.

 

[NightHawk]

With something like that I could just do the immobilizer delete?
Or is it more complicated than that

 

[P2B]

VCDS VIN limit and ECU immobilizer are related like chalk and cheese

VCDS cannot delete the immobilizer, if that's what you are trying to ask. You need a tuner for that.

 

[NightHawk]

That’s answers a huge question for me!!
about what vcds can actually do, which is weird because i thought i saw a video i watched where a guy disabled the immobilizer feature…

But this “computer locked” scenario, is that just a new ecu and then use vcds to program the vin into the computer?

computer locked - as in ecu bricked? if its bricked, you won't get the glow plug light to come on, and car won't start (it will crank tho). also, if that's the case, vcds will fail to connecto to engine module.

with mpps you can delete immobo from the ecu if you know what you're doing (easy once you know), as well as put in the right vin/odo on the ecu. not sure if vcds does that or not when you pair a new ecu to it.
