Will a standard 1999 1.4 Lupo exhaust fit on a 2004 1.0 Arosa from the cat onwards? Basically looking to swap them over?

You do what i do and desolder the serial memory chip, copy, alter data, program a new one and resolder...?
Ok bud. Its an area I have limited knowledge in but have been looking into it and keen to learn. I’m one of those guys that “has all the gear, but no idea”!!!! Lol.
Worried in case I f@*k it but guess I’ll have to take the plunge!

VAG-Tacho never worked for me. I tried it on Matt's Fresco Loop and it wasn't having any of it. It never worked on my Audi either.
Lupo's are either immo2 or immo3. Immo2 is hackable pretty easily, Immo3 isn't so easy but still doable I believe. If yours is an Immo2 you can easily fit a bypass box which means any key will start it. If it's immo3 you'll need to get your code. I bought a VAG K+CAN Commander, like you mentioned, from a well known auction site. It is able to do all kinds of stuff, including retrieval of SKC and yes, it worked on both my Lupo and my Audi.
Also as Rich said, the clocks in the Lupo are completely modular.
Sorry, one last question! What version of vag commander did you use? 1.4 or 3.6?? Thanks
-
Thanks skezza.
Maybe I’ll buy another vag commander cable and software then as I also got it off fleabay, so high chance it’s faulty.
Ill update post when it arrives.

Thanks rich. I Maybe went a bit off topic bout the Immo. Do you know how to get skc from lupo then?
-
Thanks for reply guys. Just wasn’t sure if I was allowed to ask lol.
Anyway....I’ve tried retrieving skc code using vagtacho but not working. Returns code as “0ded” which is obviously wrong.
No joy with vag commander either.
Skezza, what do you use?
im pretty sure I got a Immo 2, that said I can remove the instrument cluster completely and car still starts so does that make it Immo 1?
mk2 - odometer change is simple with digiprog 3. Done a couple now for customers.

Hi
newbie here. Admin please delete if not allowed.
Am I allowed to discuss/ask for advice on retrieving the skc/pin code for a 1999 lupo?
Exhaust swap.

Just in case anybody else needs to know in future. It’s a straight swap from exhaust manifold onwards. ?
