Why Virginia customers mail in vw/audi cluster key programming

Virginia has roughly 7.4 million registered vehicles, and trucks, SUVs & imports make up much of what Virginia Beach-area shops and owners mail us.

Do you accept vw/audi cluster key programming modules from Virginia?

Is there a vw/audi cluster key programming shop in Virginia Beach I should use instead?
Most Virginia Beach shops don't keep the bench equipment for vw/audi cluster key programming — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-country northeast — about 3 days each way.
Does Virginia vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Virginia requires an annual safety inspection statewide, with emissions testing in the Northern Virginia metro counties. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Virginia and federal requirements.
What's the difference between the older clusters and the UDS ones?
Older 2006-2010 immo4 clusters typically run a NEC processor with a 24C32 EEPROM over CAN. From ~2010-2017 the UDS clusters use NEC + 24C64 and carry Component Security (CS) we extract on the bench. Both are covered.
What exactly do I mail in?
The instrument cluster (dashboard) in most cases, or the Kessy module on push-button keyless-start cars. Include any keys you have and your VIN.
