ι The new level immobilizer cannot be used in conjunction with the old level AAM. The combination of old

ι The old level immobilizer will function with the new level AAM, but should be reserved for use with old
level AAM’s.
ι If no old level immobilizer is available, both units have to be replaced and a new VIN-specific master key
ordered.
