Hi All, I have replaced the instrument cluster with a used part with less KMs than the original and get fault code 37685 (BMS-KP and KOMBI mileage discrepancy) which I could live with. 

However, the ABS warning lamp is now permanently on and I get fault code 24153 (ABS variant coding error).  All other ABS tests are OK.

The warning lamp flashes (as normal) after a reset, but remains on after ignition is turned off/on.  The autoscan report from before replacing the cluster does not show fault 24153.  Is 24153 caused by the replacement of the cluster or could it be coincidentally a fault with the ABS?   

Am I right in suspecting that only the dealer can update the ABS variant, same as with correcting the mileage discrepancy fault?

Many thanks, Andrew (Singapore)
