Welcome to 2CarPros.

This vehicle isn't offered in the US, but I believe it is very similar to our Jetta. To reprogram the immobilizer, basically you need vag-com and VAS 5051 or 5052. What you need to do is retrieve the immobilizer code and then once that is uploaded (7 digit pin), the system will then download the pin into various modules resetting the immobilizer.

Please keep in mind, that is on a Jetta. It should at least be similar. However, you need the VAS 5051 or 5052 to work in conjunction with vag-com for it to work.

Let me know if you have other questions.
