The only good point here is the time needed to do this. I’m not aware of any car which can be OFFLINE coded without the request for an SCN code.
If you have to make an Offline coding this implies to flash your unit with an updated software version or at least the same version which you have already (not sure if you will be able to downgrade your software) and then SCN code that one to be activated in your car. Coding does not imply that you have to replace your unit software completely. Let’s not confuse OFFLINE coding with simple CODINGS !Ĭodings can be done with regular DAS or Developer DAS more deeply. In both cases an SCN or CVN coding was required. The idea of OFFLINE coding was to be able to make SCN codings when you don’t have an internet connection at your workshop to be able to perform this online. SCN or CVN coding was added to the cars back in 2003 if not earlier.
