Nope, standard key.
While talking to my friend about a wiring diagram (he has his own import
repair shop here) he had to have an imobilizer imobilized. I guess
there's
an accepted way of doing that. His opinon is that VW was very short
sighted
on the whole concept. Works great for 4 or 5 years then you start having
problems or in this particular instance (and many others) the ECU goes bad
so you put in a used one. Nope, the imobilize won't let the car run
because the
VIN doesn't match the one the ECU knows so no start, no way. Thus negating
the imobilizer.
