Gidday all
Am in process of sorting bits for the conversion, and have nearly everything bar the ecu.
Been scouring the net for info, and so far seems like the best option is finding a 2001 manual gti ecu and having an immo defeat done.
Current ecu is 06A 906 032 ES and car is a 2001 gti Aum.
Can't find much info on that one whether it can be reflashed to manual, or not.
Seems the same year 5 speed ecu is same number but ET as last letters.
Anyone know whether any other ecus are compatible with immo defeat, or any other ideas of how to run this?
Any help appreciated
You don't need to immo delete of flash anything.
Plug the new manual ECU into loom (presume you have a manual loom?) then with VCDS get the immo to read that it has a new ECU to talk to and that's it. Turn car off and back on, Immo light will go off and you're away.
You can also use your existing ecu I'm pretty sure and recode to tell it that it's running a 5-speed manual. Haven't tried that as have always had a manual ECU to use. Gvie me a yell if you need a manual ECU and loom.
I can convert your ECU to manual via software. Send me a PM if you would like this done.
I'm able to keep your Immo data otherwise perform an immo delete also.
I have an '01 Manual AUM ECU here if you are not yet sorted
