Most ECUs can be reprogrammed for things like Quattro or not, manual or automatic. I have already coded this ECU for manual and Quattro.

Default Brakes All Around

Just got my car back and put new brake pads all around. Next is the belt tensioner Then the car will be good to go for some super full throttle action.

Very true for most ECu's which includes the ones for the ndbw A4 1.8t, but does not work when it comes to the ECU for the 2000 ATW. lol

A couple weeks ago I replaced the LDC display in my new 2001.5 A4 with an aftermarket one. At first it worked partially, but over time pretty much just went to a blank backlit screen. Also the cluster would sometimes seem to reboot, like it would lose power and reset the clock.

So I bought a used cluster off eBay and got lucky to pay $53 shipped for it, and it already had a LCD screen replacement installed! All I needed to do was swap the EEPROM chip from my old cluster to the newer cluster (which I did tonight with some Chip Quik) and BAM: cluster with my car's appropriate mileage and a fully-functional LCD display

Also just paid $320 shipped for a new 034 Motorsport rear sway bar with subframe brackets! (I love my wife!)
