Problem: It’s a Seat taraco 2.0tdi 2023 model. Tried to read Bosch ECU MD1CS004 (HW80) with Autotuner. It doesn’t want to read it too high protection but I did a virtual read via obd I’m afraid to write it so it doesn’t crash.
Error:
Authentication error. This ECU has new protection and is not yet supported.

Solution:
ok with obd mode by Autotuner.
OBD is ok for this Version.
Virtual is always safe.
Obd read and write no
problem.
Obd read and write safe and fast with charger
battery.
There are some versions you can’t read it, locked version,
309 AA , M, T. If you want to do adblue off there is another solution.
Alientech KESS3 released new Boot protocol for AC Delco E67- GM platforms.
Expand your workshop possibilities with the new BOOT protocol dedicated to AC Delco E67 ECUs. Designed to guarantee full ECU access even in the most complex configurations, now alongside OBD communication.
30.01.2026 — Upgrade 2.84
This development focuses on the many GM platforms from 2006 onwards, covering a wide range of engines from 2.4 to 6.2 liters.
Alongside the already available OBD communication, BOOT mode is now introduced, designed to ensure full access to the ECU even in the most complex configurations. An update that significantly expands operational possibilities on SUVs, sedans, and ultra high-performance vehicles in the American market, providing stable and reliable procedures on one of the most widespread ECU families within the GM group.
A concrete solution to effectively handle operations on vehicles that have historically been complex and highly valuable for workshops.

The OBDSTAR X300 Classic G3 was able to take the ISN out of a BMW 320 year 2016 with MG1CS003 engine ECU.
ECU: Bosch MG1CS003 SPC5777
Using G3 (with ECU license activation) and MP001 programmer on bench.
Even without a valid subscription.
I couldn’t read ISN code for these ECUs with CG FC200 or multi prog.
But the G3 for those who have it can already take it out.
After reading
the pin code, you can program the key with the Autel IM508 or other programmers
using the released ISN code.
