If you had read through this thread BEFORE posting your request , then you would have seen this regularly posted answer (last posted yesterday !)
This really would save you wasting your time ( and mine !) posting this request for an unavailable free code for this make and model
Unfortunately the majority of SIEMENS/VDO codes (including your CDR 2005) will NOT be available for free (or cheap) from anywhere on the Internet as access is required to the original factory database…which is not commercially available..
Try your Main Dealer or a Decoding Service or your local Car Radio / Audio Shop (who are normally the cheapest option) who will connect it to a laptop to read/recode the memory chip (EEPROM)0 -
