Technical background
Due to more stringent security requirements, the service process for installing used immobiliser control units
(from February 2021 onwards) has been modified (see list).
• In future, you will need to apply for approval from AUDI AG to install any used immobiliser control units.
• The application is shown automatically when you attempt to adapt the immobiliser control unit using the
ODIS tester (or a laptop with ODIS access).
• Print out the application, sign it and send it to the e-mail address given in the application.
• The department in charge of approvals will check that the application is correct and complete.
• You will then receive an e-mail with information regarding the outcome of your application.
• Please note: It may take up to 48 hours before you receive a reply.
• Once approval has been granted, it is only possible to adapt the control unit to the vehicle identification
number documented in the application. There is no time limit for doing this.
This currently affects the following control units:

Instrument cluster
Audi TT (FV) 2015 >
Audi A3 (8V/ FF) 2013 >
Audi Q2 (GA) 2017 >
Audi Q3 (F3) 2019 >
Convenience system central control unit
Audi A4 (8K/ FL) 2008 > 2015
Audi A5 (8T/ FR/ 8F/ FH) 2008 > 2015

Note for speaking with the customer:
If a customer brings a used immobiliser control unit with their vehicle to the workshop for installation, we
recommend that you alert them to this modified process. This transparency helps avoid later disputes.
