Is there a vw/audi med17/me17 immo delete + vin shop in Birmingham I should use instead?

Does Alabama vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Alabama has no mandatory statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Alabama and federal requirements.
Will this fix a car that won't crank at all?
No. This service is for vehicles where the engine starts briefly then shuts down due to immobilizer coding (P1570, P0513). It will not fix a completely dead or no-crank vehicle.
Do I need to send the keys?
No. After the IMMO delete is performed, the ECU will run without any key matching. You will not need any keys for the engine to start (you still need a physical key to turn the ignition or push start the vehicle).
