Alabama at a glance

  • Most common: full-size pickups & SUVs

What you get

  • Your original MED9 ECU's identity, immobilizer data, coding, and learned adaptations cloned onto your donor — immobilizer preserved, existing keys keep working
  • Or, on the immo-off path, the immobilizer requirement removed from the module so it runs on a standalone, orphaned, or swapped platform
  • Donor part-number compatibility verified against your VIN and both ECU labels BEFORE you buy or ship anything
  • A full bench read and verify pass of both units before a single byte is written
  • Checksum-correct write with a powered communication test on a stable, regulated bench supply before return
  • Plain install notes — what happens at first key-on, and which adaptations relearn on their own
  • Modules returned with tracking, at the return-shipping speed you select and pay for at checkout

Do you accept vw/audi med9 ecu clone / immo-off modules from Alabama?

Is there a vw/audi med9 ecu clone / immo-off shop in Birmingham I should use instead?
Most Birmingham shops don't keep the bench equipment for vw/audi med9 ecu clone / immo-off — 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 — roughly 2 days each way for a quick round-trip.
Does Alabama vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Alabama has no mandatory statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Alabama and federal requirements.
What's the difference between the clone path and the immo-off path?
Clone keeps everything factory: your original still powers up, so we copy its identity, immobilizer data, coding, and adaptations to the donor. The result installs plug-and-play, your keys keep working, and the immobilizer stays fully active. Immo-off removes the immobilizer requirement from the module, which is the right answer for a standalone build, a swapped chassis, or an orphaned platform with no cluster or keys. Both are $250 flat — you choose with a technician before you ship.
Do you supply the donor ECU?
No — you source a used donor from eBay, a salvage yard, or a parts recycler, and we verify it before you spend money. Match both numbers on the label: the Bosch number and the VAG part number. Send us photos of your original's label, the donor listing, and your VIN, and a technician confirms whether the pair will clone cleanly. That verification is free and happens before you buy or ship.
