Uhh, yeah...

Uhhh, no. (a-4cefed, look at chart here for correct coding)

Even though it's mechanical, the cars were coded differently. here's a chart for 97-99.5 ecu soft coding

That chart does not apply to a chipped car. The code I posted was posted by another old timer

and can be confirmed via the archives.

The quattro coding does not matter since its purely mechanical.

BTW, that's the code I copied and pasted from my VAG-COM scan log.
