    jst thought of this now, could it be that my car doesnt read Flashed ECU's? the ecu isnt chipped, it's actualy flashed.
    i'v always thought my car couldnt be flashed with software and had to be chipped.

    The ECU can be chipped or flashed. When chipped, an additional computer chip is soldered on the ECU. However, when flashed, the entire ECU program may be changed (no additional chip is installed) and if there is an aftermarket chip already on the ECU, the chip's program may also be changed...

    AFAIK, the B5 onwards Passat ECUs can be flashed...
