This special function currently works with
-
Audi A6/Q7/Allroad 2004-2008. In these cars the customer is able to adapt completely by OBDII. Without any restrictions the component protection for the airbag, instrument cluster, comfort module and EZS-Kessy can be adapted. For the remaining modules with a component protection (e.g. DSP, Climate Control) you can adapt the component protection only if you have the Gateway EEPROM dump from the car from which the replacement module is removed.
-
Audi A4/A5/Q5 2007-2014. In these vehicles the customer is able to adapt the instrument cluster.
IMPORTANT: For the A4/A5/Q5 2014+ models is strongly recommended to use the Generation 1 and 2 calculator option (Component protection > Generation 1 and 2 calculator). If the modules are in a virgin state it won’t be possible to adapt them using the Generation 1 and 2 calculator.
- Audi A6/A7/A8/Touareg 2010+. In these vehicles the customer is able to adapt the instrument cluster and the infotainment module(no need to read eeprom or flash of the modules) and the original dashboard and infotainment modules must be available for the procedure.
IMPORTANT : If the original dashboard and infotainment modules are not available(A6/A7/A8 2010+) the adaptation should be done from Generation 1 and 2 calculator option (Component protection > Generation 1 and 2 calculator). If the modules are in a virgin state it won’t be possible to adapt them using the Generation 1 and 2 calculator.
When the special function “Component protection generation 2” is started the system is examined and all modules with available component protection are displayed.

From the displayed list of available modules, the customer has to select the module which they want to adapt. Then the procedure of adapting the component protection is performed in two steps:
-
Reset to virgin state
-
Learn module to the vehicle
