Cruise control VAGcom coding info wanted.
« on: 02 February 2010, 18:43 »
Is it easy to code in the cruise control on a mk6 GTI if i simply buy the arm and fit it myself.
(I trust my work more than a dealer to retro fit it) :wink:

I'd like to know this too - as a stalk is only about £50.  I can't remember where I saw it for sale though...

Just been looking on VW accessories website and it's only £59 for the mk6, i'm sure i'd seen it on there for £159 fitted.

Found it for £150, fitted.
Have not ordered it on my GTi.
Never wanted to use 'Cruise Control' even on long journeys.

It's a bit fiddly to remove the old stalk and for coding you need to activate it in controller for the steering wheel and engine  :smiley:

It'a a pretty useful thing to have these days for travelling through SPECS camera zones and along roads that are inundated with GATSO's  :grin: :evil:

Saves you having to look down at your speedo all the time  :rolleyes:

Had mine retro-fitted at the Stealers for £150 all in.... I'm sure it will be the same for the Mk 6

I had it retro-fitted on my MK5 GTI.

£49 for the stalk off eBay, 40 minutes of careful fiddling by my VW tech mate, job done.

You'll need it coding by either a dealer VAS 5052 or VAGCOM.
