If you have access to VCDS (Vagcom) you can recode the key to the CCM with it :afro:

Vagtacho is used for:

Getting the SKC from compatible instrument clusters
Reading and writing the eprom of compatible instrument clusters
Matching (coding) keys to the imobiliser in the cluster

Modifying the eprom of the cluster then writing it back with vagtacho, you can enable MTE and illuminated needles on certain immo3 clusters and the welcome message on a full FIS VDO immo3 cluster.

That is it as far as Vagtacho goes, it doen't do fault code reading or anything else that isn't related to the instrument clusters on the VAG range.
