No, because my name is actually Jennifer  :laugh: (joking)

Was just teasing you but do I detect a dribble of animosity Asker?  There's enough of that in this world, so let it go darling  :kiss:  :smiley:

Thanks Booth11 - I'm lucky, it's a company car although I'm throwing a fair bit towards it, sadly, right now I don't have a VW order number or know the dealership although I'm chasing the lease company to try and get hold so all I can get is an approx delivery date.

Sidescan - it's that blind spot monitoring, just couldn't think of the correct phrase :embarrassed:

I'm just trying to decide on whether or not to get a VCDS cable. There are a few mods that might be useful for me....

Cheers, Neil.

Sounds like you've already decided on the VCDS.  Admit i'm toying with the same idea just for a few low key tweaks.  I don't mid my cars other than some minor cosmetic stuff.

I'm hoping there may be other stuff maybe related to car-net, mirrorlink and so on that vcds may be able to un-earth. Especially as it's a 4 year lease. You never know what may come along until mk8 surfaces.

I'm hoping vcds may be able to un-earth some stuff in the car-net, mirrorlink arena as that's all a bit unknown just now. It's a 4 year lease so it may well prove useful. Then I can sit back and enjoy until mk8s hit the road.

Ah Neil, the whole car-net, mirrorlink, car-net connect app can of worms  :shocked:  Who knows what the MY2016 cars will turn up with?  We'll find out when the first lucky (or unlucky?) recipient on here takes possession of theirs.  But yeah, having VCDS might make some features more accessible.

VCDS is a no brainer over the ownership of your car

£250 to allow you to tweak and clear codes etc rather than endless trips back and forth to the dealer.........

I've had mine for 8 years now  :smiley:

Yep. I guess if it was an option on the VW configurator, I'd have ticked it without even thinking given how much the total came to.Is Gendan the best place to go? I've seen the name crop-up plenty of times.

Cheers, Neil.
