After changing the VO, you have to code the CIC with that VO..

I think coding to the russian VIN is to get the BMW online ..

If you are not concerned with telematics and BMW online, just code your own VIN to it..

I am not sure 0410 date will work.. try 0311.. (you can check what is valid by opening your E89.AT file in you daten folder)

Also, my recommendation is not to put your VO in both CAS and FRM.. Just FA_WRITE to CAS.. In that way you will have a backup of your original VIN in the FRM if you ever need it..

Coding the combox with your new VO will write your VIN to it.. so that will be covered.
