Preferred AID settings - show us yours!
« on: 23 May 2019, 09:31 »
For this one and my previous 7.5 GTI, I decided on the map view with the small dials for the AID as I find the dials look too big normally. I pretty much have stuck with that as the default setting. Recently tried a change so using this for a few days now with the map on my screen. Mine is basic so can't have maps in both.



I do wish it was more configurable and would have been great if it was like the Audi S/RS models where you can have a central rev counter display or something similar. Guess as it's free we have to make do!

Anyway, what doe everyone else in a 7.5 have it set to?

NOW - 330e M Sport
GONE - 2018 Mk7.5 GTI Performance 5dr DSG, Tungsten Silver, 2017 Mk7.5 GTI 5dr DSG, Indium Grey

Normally run with map on both but still looking at vagcom settings as mine is a retrofit in a 2013 GTI.

Most of the time I will have waze running on the main screen, but if it's a quick trip up the road then it'll just be a music app.

dude, it’s the 10 colour mod, although it’s a GT TDi (too many stolen gti/gtd round here)

Usually the efficiency view with phone in the middle.

When you start VW nav it pops up the map on the AID, but to be really useful you need to manually select the navigation AID mode, which adds you junction/lane stuff. I rarely use it though, usually just use waze...
