I understand the official on-line approach is safe and overall quick but obviously not an option for everybody. The title was "off-line programming" and you seem to be talking about off-line coding. Yes, you can make OFFLINE coding with your system and then go back to the dealer and ask them to make an SCN coding for you.however are u sure they will not charge you the same amount as if it was done in their workshops ?Ĭodings can be done with regular DAS or Developer DAS more deeply. The only good point here is what you said about 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 completly.
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. It is a lot cheaper to ask an MB workshop to SCN code the car than keep the car in their workshop for hours and have it SCN coded.Īs far as I know SCN or CVN coding was added to the cars back in 2003 if not earlier. This was shortly discussed at another thread but first of all, why would it not be useful with a later DAS release for those cars and control units that it used to be available on an earlier DAS release? The assumption must have been that SCN coding was not needed after the SW update (either version code manually or the settings remain unmodified an valid).Īnother example could be telematics updates that may take hours.
