they'll need to be coded back in to match the ECU to previous cluster IIRC

yep, keys will need to be matched back to the old cluster as they clear the old matchings out

Hmm, mine just worked when I fitted my old cluster today  :wink:

When you fit a new cluster you don't wipe the old clusters key matchings, all you do (immo 3) is to pull the immo data from the ecu to the new cluster then match your keys to the new cluster, so if you put your old cluster back in it already has the immo data and keys matched to it so they should work. The only time you could have issues would be if you went immo2 to immo3

That might be why it did it for me then Neil, changing from immo2 to immo3
