This is exactly correct. I had my done a month ago. 97 A4 . The first thing I was told is that GM got wise and figured out the reason for all the recall combacks was because of the faulty relay in the K harness. They have replaced that with a better relay and the comebacks have reduced almost completely. Mine had not had any of the previous recalls done to it. Therefore there was no reprogramming done to mine. They just removed the column lock and put in the relay. I watched. So far Ive drove it almost a 1000 miles with know problems.
I would be curious to know if GM now just connects a relay and leaves the actuator disconnected like the aftermarket CLB works.

Does anyone have a [B]quick, easy[B] way for me to get around this fuel shutoff problem, so I can drive it to the dealer, instead of having it flatbedded? I understand that I need to get the CLB, but I want to be able to drive it now.
