Component protection is a security lock applied by the Volkswagen group to lock each module to a specific car which stops stolen parts to be installed in another vehicle. 

​

Have you purchased a used part for your Audi, Bentley, Skoda, Seat, or Volkswagen? If you have bought a second-hand module you may discover that the component protection needs to be released and until then the module will not work. The replacement part will need to be released by vag dealer online programming which verifies that the module was not recorded as stolen and then the security lock is set to your vehicle. 

​

Usually, the main dealers will refuse to program used parts and will insist you purchase a brand new part. We are able to reprogram second hand modules for any vag group vehicle. If you require more information do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
