Note:
Reference the Software Version Management (SVM) table below to determine the appropriate SVM update code.
If the existing software is already at the new version levels shown below, and the natural vacuum leak diagnostic
(NVLD) control module (A6/A7: J909, A8: G400) has been replaced with the latest part number, contact Audi
Technical Assistance (TAC) for further instruction.
 Follow all instructions in the attached TSB, 2011732 00 Software Version Management (SVM), operating
instructions.
 Update the ECM using the SVM action code as listed in the table below if necessary.
For A6 and A7:
1. If the software level is at 0004 or lower, perform ECM SVM update and replace crankcase pressure regulating
valve with part number 06E103547H (only if SVM code 01A092 was used; the SVM code brings ECM to
software level 0007, which needs the ‘H’ suffix breather valve).
2. If P045600 is stored with software level 0005 (or higher), only replace NVLD control module, J909.
For A8:
1. If software is already to the latest level, replace G400. The SVM code 02A031 will update both the ECM and
the TCM.

This Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) details the general process for carrying out a Software Version Management
(SVM) software update for any TSB or Update.
Troubleshooting information is included in the Additional Information section.
Please refer to the upcoming TSBs covering detailed aspects of SVM. They will be listed under group “99”.

Technical Background
SVM was developed with the main goal of ensuring each Audi vehicle has the correct electronic control units with
the correct software versions installed when it leaves the dealership repair facility.

Technical Service Bulletin
SVM is a feature of GFF that has a subset of
functions or components as seen in Figure 1. These
functions are explained below. A VAS 5051B, VAS
5052A, or VAS 6150(A/B/C) diagnostic tool is
required to read out the vehicle control unit data and
send it to the SVM server (also called an “SVM
communication”).

Figure 1. Subset of SVM functions

1. SVM – Specified/actual comparison
Goal: This function is designed to ensure all electronic control units installed in the vehicle have the correct
part numbers, software versions, coding and parameterization. It will not suggest a control unit software
update. During this SVM communication, the part numbers and software versions of the actual control units
installed in the vehicle will be sent to the SVM servers. This “actual” data is then compared to the “specified”
data in the SVM database for a particular vehicle. The specified data stored on the SVM servers is also
referred to as the vehicle “reference”.
What an SVM Spec/Actual can do:
• Document any changes to an electronic control unit’s hardware/software part numbers, hardware/software
