Hi All

I'm trying to check that the engine ECU soft coding is correct but the little window with the coding options doesn't appear when I click on recode ?

The ABS & Auto Trans codes had been blanked by the last owner so I thought it wise to check the engine one is correct.

I've searched all over the web and can't find the info.

The car is Audi A3 8L 2001 1.8T AUM in the UK, the code that is in the ECU now is 11530

Thanks for your help.

Yours Dave

Without an Auto Scan any reply would probably be no more than a guess...

Thanks for replying.

I don't understand why an auto scan would help as I don't have any error codes coming up ?

I'm basically looking for the list like the one for the ABS ECU on Ross Tech site that Uwe helped me calculate the ABS code from but for the engine ECU. The american forums have the options list with codes for the A4 & A6's but I can't find them for the A3.

Any help would be appriciated, thanks Dave.

Sorry I'm not that clued up on this (I'm not a mechanic by trade), below is a copy of the last auto scan I did when I was trying to fix the ABS. The only changes since this one is the Auto Trans code is now 00012, the ABS code is 0019970 & the system test has completed.
