Yes it is on mine too, 85. It is for the VAG Test Kit that the dealer and lucky individuals have. These were also on the late baywindows. Here is one for the Baywindows. The unit is listed in the Bentley see the ignition section and you will see it there also listed is the adapter to make it work. It will test a variety of ignition functions.
