Straight answer: no, the Donor is not an immo-off file. We confirmed that earlier — it has a live, readable authorization block (CODE PIN 8RKV) coded to the donor's BSI. An immo-off image wouldn't show a real PIN at all, just "????". So as it stands, writing it is writing a clone with active immo.

Whether you actually need immo-off is the part only the bench write can answer:

• Write the Donor as-is first (K-Tag boot, reversible). If it cranks, catches and keeps running, then the donor's auth happens to agree with your BSI and you're done — no immo-off needed.
• If it cranks and cuts out on immo, that's the proof the auth is fighting your BSI, and that is where immo-off becomes the correct fix.

So "is it immo-off?" — not yet, and possibly not required. The one write tells us which. And to produce a patch you can trust if it does cut out, I still need the complete 512 KB Donor .bin attached here, not the sampled windows — I won't hand you offsets into the 6LP1.09 auth routine I haven't located in your actual bytes.

Since this evening is so magical, I’m going to turn in for the night. Thank you for your time. Best of luck!


It's late, and I'll be running into myself on my way to work... I'm tired... See you soon, and thanks to everyone for the help!

Sleep well — it's been a good session, and you've earned the rest after all that back-and-forth. Whenever you're ready, upload the full 512 KB Donor dump and we'll pick it up from there. Best of luck with the write.

It's the only thing I have: 6lp1.02 with off.

Thanks for jumping in, pitin — an immo-off file is exactly what this case needs, so that's welcome.

The one thing I'd flag before anyone writes it: the unit in this thread is running 6LP1.09 internally (program ID 9655959180), and what you've got is 6LP1.02. Those are different software revisions of the same family, not the same image — so a 6LP1.02 immo-off isn't a drop-in for a 6LP1.09 car. Cross-writing an older SW version can land you on the wrong calibration even if it boots, and worst case it won't match the hardware map at all.

That's inference from the version label, not a hard no. To know whether it's usable here, can you post:

• the internal program ID your 6LP1.02 reports (not just the file name)
• HW/SW numbers it came off
• whether it's a full 512 KB read and what tool pulled it

If the program ID and hardware line up with this car, it could save the whole immo-off step. If it's a different ID, better to treat it as reference only and patch the actual Donor instead.

The best thing would be to compare it with the original file.

Agreed, a diff is the right instinct — that's exactly how you locate the auth region rather than guessing at it. Two cautions on method so it actually tells us something:

• Diffing your 6LP1.02 off against this car's 6LP1.09 on will light up every byte that differs — and since they're different SW revisions, most of those differences are calibration/version, not immo. You'd be reading map changes as if they were the patch.
• The clean comparison is same-version: a 6LP1.02 on vs your 6LP1.02 off. That isolates only the bytes the immo-off actually touched. Then you carry that pattern over and verify it lands on the same routine in the 1.09 image before writing anything.

So your 1.02-off is genuinely useful — but as a map to where the authorization code lives, not as a file to write onto a 1.09 car.

To take the next step, can you confirm:

• the internal program ID your 1.02 reports, and its HW/SW
• whether you also have a matching 1.02 on file to diff against
• is it a full 512 KB read

If you've got the 1.02 on/off pair, post both and we can pull the exact delta, then check it against the real 1.09 bytes rather than assuming the offsets line up.

original here

Thanks, pitin — good to have the original in the thread.

Before I read anything into a diff, one honest caveat so we don't chase the wrong bytes: what you'd be comparing is your 6LP1.02 off against this car's 6LP1.09 original. Those are different SW revisions, so a straight diff will light up calibration and version bytes as well as the immo region — most of what differs won't be the authorization block at all. It'll point us at the neighborhood, not hand us the patch.

To make the comparison mean something, can you confirm:

the internal program ID your 1.02 reports, and its HW/SW — so we can see how far it is from 9655959180
whether both files are full 512 KB reads
ideally, whether you also have a 1.02 on to pair with your 1.02 off — that same-version diff is the one that cleanly isolates the immo bytes, which we then verify land on the same routine in the 1.09 image before anyone writes

Post the program ID and HW/SW off the 1.02 and we can start lining it up against the original rather than assuming the offsets match.

I can't find the information.

No problem — we don't necessarily need you to find it externally, because the program ID is written inside the dump itself.

In these 6LP images the internal ID sits in the ASCII block near the header. If you open your 1.02 .bin in any hex editor and search for the 96 string, you'll see the program number (same format as this car's 9655959180) sitting in plain text with the HW/SW numbers right alongside it. That one line tells us how far your 1.02 really is from the 1.09 in this thread.

So the quickest path: just post the full 512 KB 1.02 .bin as-is. Once it's actually attached I can read the ID straight out of the bytes and line it up against the original myself — no need for you to hunt the paperwork. If you've also got a 1.02 on to go with the off, add that too and we get the clean same-version diff.

here to compare

Perfect — now we've got both the 1.02 off and the 1.02 on in hand, which gives us the clean same-version diff that isolates exactly what the immo-off touched.

I'll pull the delta between your two 1.02 files to map the authorization region, then verify that same routine appears at a consistent offset in Lacostex's 1.09 original before carrying the patch over. That's the only safe way to produce a 1.09 immo-off you can trust on the first write — locate the auth block in the real target bytes rather than assume the offsets stayed put across versions.

Give me a few minutes to diff the pair and cross-check it against the 1.09 image, and I'll post the exact byte changes with offsets confirmed in the actual target file.

That’s incredible—what do you mean, trying the immobilizer data from another ECU (donor) to see if the car starts? I said the map is the same (I was referring to the ID, size, etc.), but regarding the IMMO—that is absolutely non-negotiable... it has to be IMMO OFF on the donor map. That’s what I was waiting for you to confirm... isn't that clear? I want an IMMO off for the donor map! ...Could you please let me know which software I should use to do the IMMO off myself?

Hi friend, feel free to use this if it helps.

Hi Pitin, I imagine you got a kick out of my conversation with Gemini here. Thanks,
Meucii softhware..i have, it good? only performs ECU virginization

Understood — and now I've got you crystal clear: you want a proper IMMO OFF built on the donor map, not the donor's immo data tried against your BSI. Scrap the "write as-is to test the immo" idea; that was only ever a fit check. We're past that. The goal is one thing: a 1.09 donor image with the authorization defeated.

On doing it yourself, I'll be straight with you — there's no single "IMMO OFF" button for the IAW 6LP1.09 that I'd trust blind. The honest workflow is the one we're already set up for:

• Locate the auth block — that's what pitin's 1.02 on/off pair is for. Same-version diff isolates exactly the bytes the immo-off touches, with nothing calibration-related in the way.
• Patch it in a hex/bin editor — a hex editor or WinOLS is all you need to apply the change once the offsets are known. The skill isn't the tool, it's knowing which bytes.
• Verify the same routine lands in your 1.09 before writing, then flash with your K-Tag in boot mode (reversible).

So the "software" question really answers itself: hex editor + K-Tag you already have. The part that makes it safe is the verified offset, not a paid tool.

If you'd rather a turnkey option, there are generic immo-off suites that advertise IAW support, but I won't name one as a guaranteed fit for 1.09 without seeing it land on your actual bytes — too many of them patch the wrong revision and boot you onto a dead map.

One thing that decides the whole DIY route: is your 1.09 donor a full 512 KB read, and do you want to apply the patch yourself once I've confirmed the offsets, or have the finished .bin handed back to you? Either way the next move is the same — I pull the 1.02 delta and check it against your 1.09.

Thanks for jumping in with that, pitin — genuinely appreciated. The archive metadata shows MEUCCI Engine ECU Decoding at nearly 7 MB, which sounds like it could be exactly what Lacostex was asking for.

One limitation on my end: I can see the file was uploaded but the server can't extract RAR archives, so I can't verify what's inside or walk through how to use it.

@Lacostex, pitin's uploaded a decoding/tuning package that may have the IMMO-off capability you're after. Download it, extract it, and if it's a standalone tool there's usually a readme or the interface itself will show you the steps — typically: open your Donor .bin, locate the IMMO or security module, apply the patch, save. If you hit a snag or the tool asks for something unclear, post a screenshot or the question here and we'll walk it through.

And if that package turns out to be something else or doesn't cover 6LP1.09, circle back — the offer to diff pitin's 1.02 pair and manually locate the auth block in your 1.09 still stands.

Hi Lacostex — and yes, the back-and-forth was worth it.

Short answer on the Meucci tool: if it only virginizes, then no, it won't give you the immo-off you're asking for. Those are two different operations:

• Virginization resets the ECU to an unlearned/virgin state so it can re-pair with a BSI and keys on next start. The immo check is still active — it just expects to learn a new partner.
• Immo-off patches the authorization routine so the ECU stops checking the BSI at all. The immo logic is disabled, not relearned.

So a virginize-only tool keeps the immobilizer in the loop. That said — virginizing isn't useless here. On these IAW 6LP units, writing the donor and then virginizing can let the ECU relearn against your own BSI, which starts the car without touching the auth block. That's actually the cleaner route if it works, because you keep the immo system intact. Worth trying before you commit to a permanent off.

One honest limit: I can't open pitin's MEUCCI Engine ECU Decoding.rar — the archive handler isn't available on my side, so I only have the filename and size (6.93 MB), not what's inside. I won't vouch for what that package does until someone confirms its actual contents or function list.

To point you at the right path for a true 6LP1.09 immo-off, tell me:

• exact name/version of the Meucci software you already have, and whether its function list literally says "immo off" or only "virginize / clone / reset"
• whether you still want the permanent off, or you're open to trying donor + virginize-to-relearn first

If you do want the hard immo-off, that still comes back to patching the real 1.09 donor bytes — which is why I kept asking for the full 512 KB donor .bin. Post that and I can locate the auth routine in your actual image instead of guessing offsets from pitin's 1.02.

That’s right—it’s "immo off" only in this case. I don't want to extract the key from the BSI (though I could); messing with the BSI on a car of this age—a 2004 model—is risky. There's a chance of losing the coding, and I'd just be creating extra work for myself.
