Is there a vw/audi med17/me17 immo delete + vin shop in Columbus I should use instead?
Most Columbus shops don't keep the bench equipment for vw/audi med17/me17 immo delete + vin — 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-region northeast — about 2 days each way.
Does Ohio vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Ohio requires emissions testing (E-Check) only in the seven-county Cleveland-Akron area; the rest of the state is exempt. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Ohio and federal requirements.
Can I get my VIN written too?
Yes — included on request, no extra charge. Note your VIN on the included slip or in your order email.
My VW Jetta cluster (24C64 EEPROM) got damaged when another locksmith tried to make a key — can you still get the car running?
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons people send us their ECU. We disable the immobilizer at the ECU level which bypasses the damaged cluster entirely. The car will crank and run normally with no working cluster and no matched keys required. Common on 2011-2016 VW Jetta and many other VW/Audi models that use a 24C64 EEPROM in the instrument cluster.
