hi guys my cars gone in for a software update for all the modules all modules have updated expect mask

i replaced the mask with another mask from a 2005 mine was a 2003 reg car

can this be because the vin is different as this is what i said to the garage that this needs to be changed first then it should update is this correct or could be something else..

Hey bally, I suspect it`s complaining because of the VIN number.

It will need to be reprogrammed with WinKFP to change the VIN number, apparently it can be done with Tool32 and no programming but I don`t know how and those that do know refuse to share the info.
