Default Anyone with CH (01.5) Ever vag-com swap their ecu???
Just curious if we have immobilizer 2 or immo-3, and if you know the procedure with vag-com to swap another ecu in. Also if theres any coding necessary for AT/MT swap.

if your car has immobilizer then you need to recode the spare ecu to use it.

Default no immobilizer - coding is needed for MT/AT swap
you need to have the same software coding number in the "new" one that the "old" one had.
