Hello,

I had to replace the engine in my 2008 Audi A8 4.2 TDI BVN because the glow plugs broke/melted. I bought a used engine including all attachments, and now I need to program the "new" injectors to my "old" engine control units.
(Entering the encoding)
Can someone tell me the best way to proceed, and whether I need any special login codes? Unfortunately, very little information is stored for this engine in my VCDS system.

I would be very grateful for your help.

Best regards,
Volker

Hi Volker,

Which version of VCDS are you using? Please always use the latest version from your customer account.

Have you already found this topic about calibrating the injectors / entering the injector codes?

Best regards, Rainer.
