Anyone around the Bristol or Somerset area I can tweak a few things using vag-com. I have borrowed a unit but not sure what software to get or even how to do it, lol.

I would like the LED number plate and rain sensor option.

What 'unit' have you borrowed? If it's a VCDS lead then you can just download the software from ross-tech.

I could do the stuff but no idea when I head to Bristol next time....

Hi there!

Does anyone know where on VCDS 12.12 I can change the side mirror heat settings??
I'd like either options below:

-To be able to turn it on even when its warmer than 20ÂșC;
-To link it with the rear defrosters (couldn't find it on cent. 09 menu).



Thanks,

Hi Guys,

I have had my vehicle since Decemeber but due to family illness I have had to put manymods on hold. Can and will any body do a few software tweaks for me (closure on rain, gallon used since fill up, fog lights on when closing car and may be DLR taken to 90%) I would pay you for you time.  I can travel between sheffield and Birmingham, although mum lives in Bristol so south west is an option as well.

Im asking for a forum favour
From a Pulsar GTIR, MK4 Golf 1.8t, BMW 1series, BMW 330, Merc C280, A3 TDi, A4 2.0t Quattro...on order Mk7 T/Red GTD nav/pan roof/dynoaudio and ABT headlight brow BW44!

I live in Malvern and can do those tweaks.
Going to brom and bristol sometimes for work but easier if you come to malvern (if you're going to bristol just come off at M5/J5, pop in, then rejoin through M50 at M5/J8)....

Hi there, I have 2 doubts.
1 - Seatbelt Warning disable
It also will allow use both start/stop and auto hold without seatbelt ? Because if we do not use seat well, I can not use these features.. If not possible, have another vcds code to make it work without seatbelt ?
2 - Reverse mirror down function
Actually when i reverse, only passager side mirror tilt down.. I would like both mirrors tilt down, it's possible using vcds ?

? - It's possible auto close windows when lock the car (without need hold lock button until close all windows) ? It would be really great because several or times I forget close windows..

--------- now about retrofitting ----------
My car is highline golf 7 with DSG (no additional functions).

I would like to know if would be possible retrofit driving profiles using VCDS, OR IT WOULD NEED ADDITIONAL HARDWARE ?

No. Someone tried to look into this but I believe there is only the ability to lower in one mirror regardless of VCDS coding.
