Octavia, Fabia & Superb — VW Group ID48 Crypto On Site
Škoda shares the VW Group platform with Volkswagen, Audi and SEAT — meaning every Škoda from the Fabia to the Kodiaq uses HU66 blade and ID48 Megamos Crypto 48. Aaron programmes Škoda keys using the Xhorse VVDI2 with OBD PIN extraction without cluster removal on most Octavia, Fabia and Superb models.
Škoda is particularly popular in South Yorkshire for value — the Octavia is one of the best-selling non-German-branded cars in the region and Aaron programmes Octavia keys more than any other Škoda model. The Octavia spans PQ35 (Mk2), PQ35-extended (Mk3) and MQB (Mk4) — all covered with VVDI2.
The Škoda Superb is a frequent callout in more affluent South Yorkshire areas. The Škoda Citigo shares the VW up! and SEAT Mii platform — simpler ID46 programming, faster and slightly cheaper than the Megamos Crypto models. Aaron carries HU66 blanks for the full Škoda range.
No VAT on any Škoda job. No call-out fee. Aaron confirms your Škoda's VW Group platform and PIN extraction method. Cluster removal not needed on most models.
