Golf mk8 / Re: 8.5 Coding now available in OBD11 & Carista.
« Last post by monkeyhanger on Today at 10:04 »
After the suggestion of inputting VIN on OBD11 to get a connection on my 2025 3 week old RS3, finally managed to connect, could see all the modules, was able to clear 8 logged faults, but could do nothing else. None of the modules would open except gateway. Needed to be in central electronics to try and get lane assist to stay off when switched off, turn off audible speed alarm by default and a few other bits. Tried unlocking SFD, to no avail. Hopefully an update to the OBD11 software soon will open these up.

Does VCDS have module access?

Everything is taking an absolute age to connect within. Might be worth getting a Carista unit if that works.

You’re probably right!
So I think I’m budgeting £22-23,000 around this and if that starts to match any potential sellers , it’d be great to hear from you please.

Had an email from VW saying that from 27th September they are withdrawing it from VW's for "commercial reasons"

Hope you weren't using it...

You can use Amazon Echo Auto Mode on your phone instead if you desire.

Golf mk8 / Re: Queenstown and DCC

You can order a Clubsport with Queenies and no DCC however a regular GTI 265 has Queenstown and DCC as a package in the UK. Whether it’s down to the weight of the wheels or some other marketing reason I have no idea.
Dogman12 has a point though, it’s not impossible that a set could have been retrofitted to a GTI minus DCC.

I am sure models with a good service history should alleviate any concerns.

Stick your budget up preferences and you may coax owners out of the woodwork
