Why Component Protection Removal Is Needed

At European Prestige Car Care (EPCC), we specialise in Component Protection Removal in Melbourne, helping owners of Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and other European makes restore full functionality when replacement parts or modules have been installed.

Whether it’s a new control unit, ECU, infotainment system, or other protected component, our expert technicians can correctly decode, adapt, and synchronise the part with your vehicle’s systems.

  • Replacement parts not recognised – New or second-hand electronic modules won’t function until CP is removed.
  • Restores full system functionality – Features like navigation, sound, or engine management work as intended.
  • Avoids dealership-only restrictions – No need to wait weeks or pay inflated dealership prices.
  • Done by certified professionals – Safe, reliable, and in line with manufacturer standards.

Unlock Restricted Features

If you’ve ever replaced or upgraded a control unit in your Audi, Volkswagen, Skoda, Porsche, or other European vehicle, you’ve probably come across Component Protection. It’s a built-in safeguard from the manufacturer that restricts certain features after a module swap. While it protects against theft, it also locks out functions you should rightfully have access to — like infotainment, comfort controls, and performance settings.

At European Prestige Car Care (EPCC) in Somerton, we specialise in Component Protection removal for Melbourne drivers, restoring the full functionality of your vehicle. Using advanced diagnostic tools and approved coding methods, our technicians can safely remove these restrictions so your upgraded or replaced parts work exactly as they should.

Many of our local customers from Somerton, Epping, Craigieburn, Greenvale, Roxburgh Park, and the wider Northern Suburbs come to us after experiencing frustration with limited features post-repair. Once the protection is removed, it feels like driving your car the way it was meant to be driven — no more missing menus or disabled features.

If you’re adding new modules, upgrading your multimedia system, or simply restoring full use after a repair, our Component Protection Removal service is the solution.
