Hello i am new to this forum and need help.I bought a theft recovery 2002 tt replaced the colum ,key,ecu and cluster with used parts instaled everything and the car ran fine except for a few lights on the dash.Now took out the cluster to have it reprogram the milage to match the car ,reinstaled it and now the car will start but stalls. Is the there anything i can do without towing to a dealer an hour away?

to late you have to go to the dealer.who did the programing

Hmm... yeah... so, theres a thing called an immobilizer.... Sounds like you pissed it off. ; )


For future reference, you might want to glance this over... http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/car...-swapping.html

Also found this:

"We do not know of any way to retrieve an SKC for VW/Audi/SEAT/Skoda vehicles other than getting it from an official dealership. Prior to 2002, some vehicles were delivered with a scratch-off panel on a plastic tag, details on using that 4-digit SKC can be found here. Starting in 2002, dealerships implemented the WIN2 system to provide SKC's to their technicians and customers, details on using that 7-digit SKC can be found here. Recently, VW/Audi dealerships have switched to the new GEKO system, whereby their factory scan tools dial up the factory while connected to a car. Under this system, the technician no longer sees the SKC at all and you will need to bring your vehicle into the dealer to have Immobilizer work performed. VAG-COM does not interact with the GEKO system. "


Hope that helps a bit

Thanks for the input, i will try anything.

Oh, why did you remove the cluster to have the milage set? That would be something I would do with it in the car I would think. And you do know that if you go over 50 miles on a new cluster, the milage is locked, and you can't change it anymore, right?

Thanks for the input,the guy who was working on it for me figured out what he did wrong and reprogramed it. All works fine now,thanks again achTTung .
