Seademon 0 Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Hi guys - I sourced a 2nd hand ABS pump for my car off a late VR6 and have taken the car in to be done but my mechanics having real trouble getting the brakes to bleed correctly and the pedal feels rubbish.The part number of my original unit is 1H2 614 217CThe 2nd hand one that were trying to fit is 1H2 614 217BAny ideas if this would be incompaitable with my car? He says that it could be that it needs to be re-coded? I've not heard of this before but theres a VW servicing garage next door (Volksapart, Dartford) & they said thhat it'll need re-encoding to enable it to be set up?Any ideas if this recoding will sort it or will that pump not work on my car?Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 you will need to get it on the VAG COM, according to my bentley, you do have to code it back up, also the VAG-COM is required to bleed it up.Pete Link to post Share on other sites

Seademon 0 Posted May 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 The ABS pump saga continues! Basically my mechanic has taken the code off my old unit & has tried to put this code onto the new one (using VAG COM) but its not accepting it - any ideas why? Could this be anything to do with the part number being slightly different at the end even though its off a late VR6?Im getting to the end of my rag with this now! ~ Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 1,455 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 I think that the ECU has to be matched to the ABS pump. I'll check in the bentley tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
