    I would love to be able to do it; I have the gear but no idea! My colleague Greg would like to do this as well and as he is a lot younger than me plus far more skilled in bits and bytes I image we will get around to it.

Hey presto the VIN appears in the Extra field for the cluster in VCDS and after an hour's drive no airbag light. So thanks very much - I am very pleased. It will be interesting to see whether this EEPROM becomes corrupt again.

    My next task is to find the immobiliser PIN so I can re-program another key. Do you or anyone know how to decode this info?

    Thanks again.
    I guess you tried to change the odometer value.
    About the login I can't help you, but I can recomend you VAG DASH or newer version of VAG K+CAN Commander.

    download the calculator then load your dash file to calculate the login, if that makes sense

    I have seen another reference to connecting the battery with the ignition on. Can't remember where I read it but the reason given was to avoid injury due to inadvertent ignition of the airbag. The thinking behind this is that if something failed in the airbag or controller prior to the battery being re-connected that could cause the bag to ignite as soon as the controller is powered on, if you are under the bonnet reconnecting the battery lead you won't be injured.

    If I find the reference to this I shall post it.
