My MMI failed for the second time in 2 years. The MMI board itself is actually fine, it's the module behind the glove box that's actually failed. I've copied a pic for reference (it's part #1). The install process of the unit looks fairly easy, but my shop was wondering if there was any coding beyond the install? They inquired about a Workshop Code - what is that exactly? I'm simply in need of details of what needs to be done with VAGCom to complete the entire install process?

Part # is: 4F0910732QX

hey man, i had mine replaced by the dealer... same part number.

scope of work
" PERFORM RING BREAK AND TECH DIAG. TRACED SOURCE OF MALFUNCTION TO 07 MODULE.
REMOVE GLOVE BOX, REPLACE UNIT, CODE, ADAPT, UNLOCK. CHECK OPERATION , OK"

if you dont mind me asking, what was the price for it??

thank, and good luck.

Arnold K.

It's $1015.

And that does help, actually. Now I definitely know it does need to be coded.

pcamaj

ohh ok... sounds about right...
well in any case good luck.
they charge me $560 labor, ONlyyy....

Arnold K.

That's insane for labor. From what I know, it's a 1 hour install job - you just drop the glove box (there are 4 bolts that hold it) and everything is accessible to you immediately. Remove the old module, and install the new one.

The coding doesn't take longer than 30 minutes, as far as I know.

If your car is a 2005 A6 then yes you will need to code the car at the dealer..

pcamaj

what you gonna do....
i hope they spend it, just the way they earn it.

What about 2008 is it possible to code the getaway with the car without the main dealer?
