     Has autel been doing any work on component protection for vw/Audi  to allow the use of fitting used components registered to another vehicle (i think ford also have this on some modules)

         I think almost all manufacturers  do it to some extent. As far as what Autel's doing I didn't update VW/Audi because of generalization of perfected partial agreements (what agreement) in my favor or not to get sued by VW/Audi? They're just not clear enough with user's and we all find out new deficiencies with updates it seems. Can't wait to see what shakes out after this prolonged period of limited updates (good or bad). I guess you should ask support if you really need to know short-term. Good luck

     i guess so but i would like to get one in and try to see if it can be done i think but not sure vw/Audi only locks the Vin to the vehicle so if you can edit that it it will work.

    ford focus on the other hand locks out all ecu,s if you fit a used BCMI

    Sorry, our product can't support it at present and it needs online programming.

            They're you go keep the pressure up maybe they'll work on something we need in the field not partial agreements.

     yes the partial agreement could be we will only do basic functions with our scanner not the parts we are able to do.
