Reminder: Technical Bulletins and U.S. Tech Tips to be
Removed from ServiceNet
As of August 17, Technical Bulletins and U.S. Tech Tips will be removed from ServiceNet.
Through the Carlisle survey and dealer feedback, you have expressed the need to have service
information:


In one place (ElsaPro)



Easily accessible (with VIN and without VIN)

Therefore, we are consolidating service information to the source system.
Easy accessible with VIN in ElsaPro
In the case of Technical Bulletins and U.S. Tech Tips, the source system is ElsaPro. ElsaPro allows
searches for vehicle specific Technical Bulletins and Tech Tips based on the VIN entered. This
change helps:


Consolidate information location



Avoid duplication of data and misaligned information



Provides vehicle specific information

Easy Accessible without VIN via Google Search
To do a general search of the source system (ElsaPro), use the Volkswagen Google Search Tool
(VW Google). VW Google can be accessed through the Technical Assistance button in ElsaPro
and the vwhub.com homepage.
As you know, VW Google Search is a fast and efficient way to do a general search for Technical
Bulletins and Tech Tips, without a VIN. However, we have received feedback from you that VW
Google Search has not been working properly over the last few months. We are happy to inform
you that the issue has been resolved.
Please refer to the VW Google Search Job Aid on ServiceNet under Technician References →

Google Search.
Future Enhancement
A change request will be coming in 2016 to ElsaPro which will allow access to Technical
Bulletins at a glance, as it was with ElsaWeb. No need to drill down into Technical Service
Solutions sub-categories any longer. We will inform you when the change will go live in 2016.
In the future, if you experience any issues locating Technical Bulletins or U.S. Tech Tips via VW
Google Search, please email us at [email protected] or submit an ElsaPro
Feedback.

To adapt keys to a 2015 Golf or Golf GTI, it is necessary to complete the “Adapt
Immobilizer” test plan. Kessy Vehicles: Verify that the reader coil (figure 1) is
removed from the steering column and the key is touching the reader coil during
key adaptation. Bladed key vehicle, it is not necessary to remove the reader coil.
The test plan can be found under the ODIS Special Functions Tab (figure 2) or by
navigating to “Immobilizer functions” under “Elect. Immobilizer 5A” after clicking
the “Select self-test” button in the Test Plan tab (figure 3). This procedure adapts
both the remote and immobilizer functions of the key.
Note: Vehicle may not start and or have warning lights on cluster after immobilizer /
key adaptation is completed. See pg. 5 information in this tech tips after
immobilizer / key adaptation for further instructions.

Some vehicles may experience inadvertent ignition key displacement from the run to
accessory position while driving, causing the engine and passive restraint systems including the airbags - to shut off, increasing the risk of a crash and personal injury
to vehicle occupants.
If the ignition key inadvertently moves as described above, the engine will turn off,
which will then depower various key safety systems including - but not limited to -

air bags, power steering, and power braking. Loss of functionality of these systems
may increase the risk of crash and/or increase the risk of injury in the event of a
crash.
Until repair is completed, owners are advised to remove all objects from the key fob
(such as additional keys, key chains, etc.). This may help lessen the likelihood that
the vehicle will experience the problem described in this recall. Additionally, the
driver should ensure that the key is securely and correctly positioned in the RUN
position before driving the vehicle.
