Joey you will still need the Secret Key Code (SKC) to reprogram the new cluster's immobiliser to your car.

Thanks ARD, I will give that a try sometime tomorrow.

Cage I think you don't need the SKC to access the CAN gateway and recode it.

use VAG-COM

Let us know how you get on.

LiQuOrIcE I'm doing the FIS retro fit soon. I let you know how I get on.

I've just bought a 0 mile FIS cluster from the German ebay for my car. I was lucky the speedo is in MPH instead of KM. I also check the part no on Etka and its for my car.

LiQuOrIcE the one you need for you car is on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2465321998&category=36681

Very Rare to find one without CAN bus.

There's loads of cluster on the german ebay site. This guy is always selling them

http://cgi6.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewSellersOtherItems&userid=n8active&include=0&since=-1&sort=3&rows=50

also you can retro fit the Passat ones, you just change the cluster casing and faces.

Passat one begin with part no of 3B0 / 3B5 whilst the Golf are 1J0 / IJ5

[aRd]

1JO....919.........9........... 3........1........ D

Golf CAN-BUS - no MPH Service Interval Immo I ...?

Service Intervals

0 is for vehicles with fixed service intervals without oil/temp. sender

1 is for vehicles with flexible service intervals with oil/temp. sender

2 is for vehicles with fixed service intervals with oil/temp. sender

3 is for vehicles without service interval display

Please correct me if I'm wrong

To connect the SAT Nav to the FIS, you will need 3 wires

[LiQuOrIcE]

I Should Be So Lucky!

 

[Foxy]

Hi guys,

does anyone know if I can swap an "old" 1J0920806E cluster

with a 1J5920825C cluster with MFA [?]

Cheers

 

[coronadilione]

Sorry, I want to know:

Upgrade from 1J0920806E to 1J5920826C cluster

Thanks again

I thought about trying to get hold of a Bora Sport Cluster - How do you go on about matching the mileage? Do you have to use one of those dodgy mileage correction companies or will VW do it for you?

 

[coronadilione]

Hi wellsy,

at the moment, the only solution seems to be the bought of a cluster with 0 km (hard to find & expensive !!).

If you (or anyone else on the forum...) know someone that can modify the mileage on an used cluster it will save a lot of money. Please give me some info; as I'm from Italy and I'll have to find the cluster on ebay.de, it would be great if you can suggest me someone in Germany (or Italy ?)

Cheer []

BUMP!!

did anyone change their old clusters (old skool mk4 with no FIS) to ones with the FIS???

 

[hz2921]

ive got the bora sport cluster with 0 miles, and full fis, and am waiting for my friendly guy at the stealers to fit them when he gets time, if not soon, then i,ll have to go to lyndvales in Chelmsford to get it fitted.

 

[aRd]

Ram what do you mean exactly,

I've changed a few clusters to FIS. I've got a good idea how to do it. Tell me exactly what you want doing I'll see if I can help

aRd

 

[R44MS_K]

not too bothered about fitting it as we can do it here, i just want to know if i can swap my old clocks which are the early mk4 type for the FIS type which i then want to hook up with my navi so it can direct my on the dash as well as the MFD

 

[aRd]

Ram, get you part no of your existing clocks and I or others will be able to tell you which FIS clocks you need mate.

what year is your car etc and which MFD have you got a D or G. That is also a factor when deciding on the FIS clocks you need

fitting them not a problem if you have the login code (SKC) if you don't you have to go to the stealers

I was only offering you advise and support because I have been through the process. I gathered you can fit them yourself.

 

[R44MS_K]

no probs aRd, i will let you know the part no - its a "G-unit" i have

cheers for the advice!!

ps its a late 98 i have but again i will give you the part no!
