XSD vagcom adjust

[mkviken]

has anyone adjusted their electronic diff via VCDS?

you can have it on 0 (standard), 1 (medium) or 2 (strong).

as far as i can find setting 2 is recommended for track use.

[mkviken]

oh yes and the golf R and scirocco R both come from the factory in setting 2.

might be worth tinkering with

Wish I'd known this when I had my REVO'd car, it could have cut down on the torquesteer.

I may have a play in the spring anyway, so thanks for the info.

Don't you mean XDS? 

Update:

I've just read these XDS Settings WOW!!!

ESP, XDS, DSR, ASR, Brake Assist, Hill Hold Control Settings Vag-Com

It appears you can switch the ESP off.

I can switch mine off as I have a 2012MY car. Don't need VCDS to deactivate it.

Nice find mkviKen. Guess you and Damien have been playing. Your Panel is due Thursday so should have it for the weekend

[mkviken]

Not tried it yet but will definately activate stage 2 diff setting as soon as someone with VCDS is willing! Hint hint



Read a few scirocco sites giving it great reviews. Helps car stop washing wide on the gas. Brake pads won't thank you for it though as the 'diff' will be working overtime!


Just let me know when I can pick the undertray up. Thanks for sorting it for me.

If no change at home, i could prob do it at the weekend as its only 5 mins.

[mkviken]

i had a word with Damien and he's going to have a go at it. think I'm going tomorrow night. if the under tray is there i will call in at yours too while I'm over that way.

cheers

to change the settings via VCDS

go to adaptations> channel 36 > and then set a value from 0 to 2. This adjusts the sensitivity.
In 0 rarely intervenes.
In 1 its weak.
In 2 it's strong.

I'm going to try 2 which is used on the R20 and rocco R

think this is worth trying if you have a remap especially.
