My first GTI just delivered...

The problem is it does not work from a certain build date when xenons are fitted.


So does your MFD display look different to mine?



cheers Snoopy, no it doesn't but I haven't noticed the kmh at the bottom, I'll check tomorrow and I should be posting some pics to as I've cleaned her today. I'll let you know after my investigations... Still new to the car so not up to speed with everything!!

That is the speed displayed that the manual refers to. I'd be surprised if it wasn't there. If not they must have set your car up for another country!

Ah ha! Yes it is the same display!! Shame it's not in mph and u can't set that as an option :-( I have read in another thread the mfd can be changed to mph? Does this affect anything else and you can also programme the windows to shut via the light/rain sensor? Is this something a dealer has to do??

You mean like this on mine? 



This doesn't affect anything else.

Yes you can program the windows / sunroof to close if the rain comes on.

A dealer probably could do it but I don't think they would. Best way is getting a hold of a cable and doing it yourself.

Yeap that looks good nice and clear similar to what I had on my tt before. The dealers don't seem to like to do much do they I went to see them to see if they could turn my xenons off as drl's but they said it can't be done!! Do you know anyone in south Devon who's good at these vag things as I haven't a clue. I would obviously pay some bucks!!

You could ask in here.

Cheers. I'll try and upload some pics tomorrow as I spent most of today cleaning her
