Procedure for matching keys to vehicles with Immobiliser in the Instrument Cluster:

This information will enable you to code new or replacement keys to the immobiliser fitted to your car. You will need VAG-COM software, a suitable interface and the four digit SKC commonly found under a scratch-off panel on a plastic key tag. If you don't have this unique code then you must ask your dealer to get it for you.

  1. [Select]
  2. [17 - Instruments]
    [Login - 11]
    Enter zero followed by the 4-digit SKC.
    For example, if your SKC is 1234, enter 01234.
    [Do It!]

  3. [Adaptation - 10]
