But.likewise, as Rollerton you try explain, it can be hit and miss with success. No real horror stories found, such as people using it and things gone Tits up. I'll tell you I spent hundreds of dollars on chinese copies when I first got my B6 and NONE of them got through the clusters encryption- that was a few years ago, so there's hopefully a few more options by now.įWIW pulling the SKC from the ECU really should work with B6's though late 04' if it's done right.

I hope you find a program / dongle combination that does indeed work, that would be great.

I've never known an SKC to start with a non-zero and be valid. Likewise if it gives you 3236 or '7' the SKC will be ' 03236' or '00007'. The PIN is actually 5 digits with the first always being zero- so the actual SKC/PIN is 00041. When you read the login with various programs you should get anywhere from 1 to 4 digits. I'm looking into getting VagDashCan.Įvery PIN/ SKC I know of for VW / Audi Immo through generation 3 or 4 is a FOUR-DIGIT key. If you try read the saved bin file using VagCommander, to read it 'offline' (while unconnected to your car OBD port) you get blank fields in the Login and odometer boxes (which is where knowledge of the code comes in i spose!)ĭon't know if this'll help anyone in future. Left me confused as to what to do with a 5 digit login or a 3 digit one now!! Which to use where, when and how? The ECU scan yielded no Odometer reading- while the Cluster gave me a mad one! And Neither ECU or CLuster logins match - but according to Nefmoto forum, they won't necessarily match. Likewise with my cluster using either the 'Instrument Cluster Audi A4 Bosch RBx' selection or the 'Instrument Cluster Audi A4 Bosch RBx CRYPTO 2001+' selection (same, repeatable results with each) but this time with a 5 Digit LOGIN? I found some 'normal' looking data off my ECU, with VagCommander, for my TDi using the VAG-EDC15x selection. Which.if anyone follows the SKC pull guide/s, may explain something of help in choosing your selection of connection. I'm looking into getting VagDashCan.Īlso ,it seems from reading, that most most petrol vehicles will have the engine management system (EMS) ECM type 'ME7.x' and with most software that that would be the selection.ĭiesel systems: being ECM type EDC15x fitted (where x is the EMS system variation). With Vag Dash Can u can obtain u pin change millage whatever cluster is virgin or not.
