jaydubb13 0 Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 I'm swapping ecus long story but the part number from the new/used one matches mine same engine same year. It appears to be made only a couple hundred after mine. The guy I bought it from has the pin code too so... Does it still need to be programmed? And keys coded ? I don't have to immobilizer delete if I have the pin do I? I don't want someone with vagcom to rip me off just because I don't know what is involved. Thanks Jessica Link to post Share on other sites

bennyk 1,238 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 If you get the chip out of the key thats from the car the ecu came out of and put it in your key it should work. Link to post Share on other sites
jaydubb13 0 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 2003 gti vr6 so aside from the key issue is there anything else involved and if I have the pin I wonder can my keys be programmed. My husband is against immobilizer delete for some reason he thinks it means anyone can get in my car is this true? Link to post Share on other sites
