And a couple of other people have borrowed it and used it to. One of them was to see what error codes were on a 2nd hand Passat they were buying.Last edited by Lance B; 13-11-2009, 10:38 PM.

Changing the impulse number doesn't change the CAN BUS speed, only the indicated speed. Why would they use a known (and deliberately set) wrong speed for the odometer? From me reading, the odometer is driven by the CAN BUS speed, so should not be affected by changing the impulse number...
Just my 2c, and I could obviously be entirely wrong, but it seems logical to me.

Originally posted by Lance B View PostAs a matter of interest, is there an issue with the car looking for the original amp if it has been removed? I also removed the original amp and fitted the ArcAudio ks125.4 amp like you did, but kept the factory speakers, which are really very good. I also added Dynamat and an Audison Bit One processor to iron out any anomolies.The factory speakers are average - you will notice a huge improvment if you replace particularly the front pair with some high quality splits. The car does look for the amp, and does create errors in the electronics if the amp is removed, not the end of the world though. A quick look in with VAGCOM to the car's config and tell it the amp isn't there any more fixes those errors.
