I was able to code my used, from eBay, SAS/SLZ unit. There is no need to go into NCS expert to get the VIN #. When you recalibrate your SAS with tool32, it will code your VIN#. I coded my unit and I couldn't get the DSC malfunction fault to go away so I thought I did it incorrectly and called it a night. I spent a few hours doing research and the next day, for kicks, I drove it and after I backed out of my driveway the DSC fault went away. The reason I decided to drive it is that I verified the VIN was written correctly using INPA to look at the UID (or is that UIF?). I just didn't have the SLZ clocked correctly. It was off one revolution and when I did turn it lock to lock, I almost broke it because there was a lock on the plastic part and, being plastic, it flexed. Luckily I stopped before something broke as I saw the connectors being twisted out of shape.
