    Immobilizer 2 ECU Swapping- 17 - Instruments and misc

    Immobilizer II:
    This must be performed each time ECU's are exchanged. This does not apply to installing a "chip" in the same ECU that is already aligned with the car.
    Immo-3 knows your car's VIN. Access 17-Instruments (or separate 25-Immobilizer on vehicles that are set up that way) and look at the first "Extra" field.

    If you see something like: "Immo-ID VWZ7Z0W0648696" You've got Immo-2 (or maybe even Immo-1 in earlier non-US models).

    If you see something like "WVZKB58001H231169 VWZ7Z0W0648696" You've got

    Immo-3. The first 17-digit string is the VIN. The second 14-digit string in the Immo-ID.
    1. Install the new ECU in the car
      [Select]
      [17 - Instruments]
      [Adaptation - 10]
      Leave channel at "00"
      [Read]
      [Save]
    2. [Done, Go Back]
      [Close Controller, Go Back - 06]
      [Exit]
    3. Turn ignition OFF for 15 seconds. Start vehicle.
    Note: For cars with a separate Immobilizer (Includes 2000+ EuroVan, Cabrio, and many older non-US models), use [25 Immobilizer] instead of [17 - Instruments]. The rest of the procedure is the same.

    VAG-com is the whole point of this point to show you I could edit the Syntax of the code.

    I presume this is for programming in a new ECU, but what for? Using what interface?

    It's word for word a takeoff of an article for 2001+ volkwagon / audi cars running the immo3 immobiliser. Checking the other pages for this article mentions an interface called Vag-com, which is either a truly dodgy porn site or one of those windows progs that links to an OBDII adaptor via usb.
    It's a 2.0 inline four that thinks it's a viper v10. What's not to love?
