OK, this is my understanding.

(you did follow the whole procedure as per Ross-Tech clip just in case??)

I wouldn't use the login for the donor car, but current car.

Have you tried this login:

06297

And then coding is correct:

0007597

It would not let me log in using my current car log in ? It seems to only accept the log in of the donor car ? ....

Hi Guy.

Compatibility issue as mentioned before??
Could you post the year of your car and part number of the module you've fitted and I will check if it's compatible with your car.
LWB A8 4.2 Petrol it's all I know so just the year and that should be enough.

Do you know if the part number of the donor's module is exactly same as the one from your car??

PS. Cheers Jim for clarifying Guy's/David's name

This first one is the module I removed first





The rest are what they have in stock ....









the one I fitted ended in H44 ...and lets me log in as a W12 but will only accept and store W12 settings ... and all I get is a dash board like a xmas tree

No problemo guy
I'm sure we will get to the bottom of this.
I'm going out now for about 2-3 hours and will jump on it as soon I'm back.
Are you far from London?
Are they not prepared to ship it to you??
If not where are they Base coz if close to me I could pick it up and ship it over to you via ups next day??
