Central FAZIT database
The central FAZIT database at Volkswagen in
Wolfsburg is a essential component of the
immobilizer IV.
FAZIT stands for "Fahrzeugauskunft- und
zentrales Identifikations-Tool" (Vehicle
Information and Central Identification Tool). All
theft-related data from the control units that are
integrated in the "Immobilizer" function are
stored in this database.
It is not possible to adapt the control units used
without an online connection to FAZIT.
