I think you will find this is one contributory factor to getting a Euro NCAP 5 star rating and thus is not possible to disable. I have had cars in the past which could have this feature turned off using the tech tool but not sure if VW will allow it for the above reason.

There just has to be a way!  Afterall, different countries have different laws and requirements, and EuroNCAP only applies in Europe!  What about somewhere like Turkey, or Morocco, who ain't in the EU?

Someone, somewhere must have found it through VAG-COM - might be worth having a shufty on Vortex.
