From what ive read is that by using OBDelevens automated "change X to do whatever" function it can potentially cause issues and you've no way of knowing what its changed coding wise.

which is why you learn how to code properly and never use the one click apps. Also a lot of people are not doing a full back up first before clicking things which can help when trying to unpick mistakes.

Would AUTOPHIX V007 OBD2 Scanner (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08ZXRP9HR) be a safer option. I'm only thinking that it'll be the airbag will come back as a fault.

I remember the mk5gtiforum having a vag-com network, don't think it's on this one. Usually it was just enthusiasts that didn't mind helping doing small vcds bits, if you say you're broad location someone might be able to help you out 

Someone did cruise control for me on it, then I ended up helping a now friend doing a headlight washer retrofit

that's the best thing to do if you don't want to buy one. One of the vcds sites used to have a map of users.

if you disconnect the battery first and then when you're finished connect it back up properly you shouldn't get an air bag light. It's usually only if you disconnect stuff with the battery still connected. I think if you wait after you've disconnected the battery as well it helps.

Quick update. I replaced the carpet and underlay at the weekend. I disconnected the battery and didn't unplug and cables until it had settled for around 30 mins. Connected the battery the following day and got the following errors:

- Error: stabilisation control (ESC)
- Auto Hold is unavailable
- Front Assist unavailable.
- Proactive passenger protection unavailable.
- Error: Tyre Pressure Loss Indicator

Drove around for 10 mins and those errors then went so all good.
