Default im pertty sure you can recode a manual quattro to tip quattro, so the K05 program should work.

best to get a "P" ECU and try it. used ones are $150 off car-part.com

Default What was the secret to recoding your tip fwd ecu to manual quattro?

Did you manage to get it to work in the end?

I have seen mixed posts in STFA about the ability to recode P &amp; Q ECUs from manual to tip &amp; vice versa.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/vag/msgs/5398.phtml">Click</a></li></ul>

I see - STFA shows mixed success so I guess I'll just have to spend the $150

Default Yeah that was me, and yeah the car would not run with the P for me. MTM offers k04 software! more...

That is what I have sitting in my second ECU at the moment. The ECU in the car at the moment is an 018Q (replaced under CPO) but also has a second part number on it I know I posted it a while ago.

They do have K04 software for the 018Q ECU and they are extremely responsive and good to work with.

there is an entry in the CAPS database by "Goldfishhh" using a 018Q ECU and the K05 file.
