Skoda Octavia II - swap ECU, Instrument and Key [pre-FL to FL maxidot] - getaibose - 01-11-2016

Hello everyone!

My daily driver is a 2006 Skoda Octavia 1.9PD TDI. It has the following problem for the past 7 months headbang

It's nearly impossible to read mileage now - I looked around and the replacement LCD screen (maxidot) for this dashboard is €65 + ship + service charge for screen replacement

So I decided to swap this instrument with the face lift one. I read around and found that my ECU (EDC16U1) does not support the new cluster (it appears the immobilizer in the newer FL clusters are different from the older ones) - also I read that the keys would have to be changed.

So, I have been gathering parts for a while now and have got the following

1. another ECU - EDC16U34 part no. 03G 9106 021 LB - came off a car with the same engine code as mine

2. face lift instrument cluster --- part no. 1Z0 920 943G

3. New set of keys part # 5K0 837 202 AD

4. Adapter cable for the cluster

Guys, I need your help to install this to my car. What tools will I need to accomplish this job. I have been reading about this for months, and as far as I can understand, this is the route I have planned to make this work:

1. Read CS data from Instrument
2. Write CS data of instrument to ECU
3. Change VIN + KM in instrument and ECU
4. Write CS data to blank key transponder
5. Match + adapt keys

Please forgive if the above is wrong - I am a newbie to immo :smile:

Need your help in what tools will help me do this job 100%, and what steps to be taken

These are the tools I already have:

1. VCDS ori
2. KESSv2 reworked (never tried writing with it)
3. FGTECH v54 galletto2 (not reworked, untested)
4. VAS5054A

Another problem I have is that the cluster is in Miles per hour and my car is kilometers per hour. I could not find a FL maxidot with KPH for a reasonable price, so had to go with MPH. I got the KPH speedo dial face from another cluster:

Is there anyway to change the software of the cluster to KPH? I have read in some forums that it is possible. Your help is most valuable to me!

Thank You!

I think that you will have a problem with a component protection

I suggested Audi and VW
Skoda may not have

(1. Read CS data from Instrument
2. Write CS data of instrument to ECU
3. Change VIN + KM in instrument and ECU
4. Write CS data to blank key transponder
5. Match + adapt keys)

my question

Hello

thanks for the reply. I do not have any immo tools right now. This list of step is a guess work on how to accomplish this job after reading about this on various forums.

Best Regards

this tools only read flash in you ECU
you need transfer to new ECU eeprom and flash from Orginal ECU (this is BDM)
You ECU is 16CP34

VCDS and VAS-PC only diagnostic

When you install Instrument claster from the another car you will have component protection active!! car can will be start but all the lights will be on
You need ODIS online to Remove component protection
or
do this job on the table use programator

No component protection in this cluster. fl tacho can also work with this cluster only need new transponders. find someone with avdi and it should be np. where are you from?
