Is that just me or everyone?! :p
I take making changes to the settings not lightly,
as I've seen to many mistakes and problems.
so, I recommend others to be carefull as well.
 
Adjusting OEM xenon light, does anyone have a "how to" ? :)
 
Might sound daft.....
in wat way?
 
Some more that were on the other site, not confirmed by anyone on this site yet, I think

Thanks to gijsv for this:

Disable seat heating level 3 to level 2 after 10 minutes.
[08-Auto HVAC]
[10-Adaptation]
[Channel 50] level 3 to 2; adjust value as required; default value = 10 (minutes); value 0 = off
[Channel 51] level 2 to 1; adjust value as required; default value = 0 (minutes)


Thanks to Tanner for this

Disable Headlight Washers

Thanks to yourownhero for these:

Set Oil Change Interval to 5k Miles
[17 – Instruments][Adaptation – 10] ->Channel 50 (Basic Distance Value for Oil Change Fixed Service Interval)
Set to 80
(1 interval = 100 km, therefore 80x100km = 8000km = ~5000mi)

Set Service Interval to 5k Miles
[17 – Instruments][Adaptation – 10] ->Channel 52 (Basic Distance Value for Inspection)
Set to 80
(1 interval = 100 km, therefore 80x100km = 8000km = ~5000mi)

HVAC Fan/Seat Setting MMI Readout Duration
[HVAC][Adaptation – 10] ->Channel 39
Set between 1 and 255 for number of seconds
Default is 5
-Duration of readout of specific air conditioner setup functions on the MMI display, such as air distribution, fresh air blower speed, seat heating (seat ventilation) and temperature setting.
-This adaption applies to the temperature setting only if the combination turn knob/pushbutton is pushed before being turned (for duration of temperature readout without pushing combination turn knob/pushbutton see adaption channel 47).
-If the relevant function button on the Climatronic control unit -J255- is pressed a second time, the MMI display immediately switches back to its main menu.
-At basic setting 5 the respective function of the air conditioner is displayed for 5 seconds on the MMI.
-At setting 2 ... 255 the respective function of the air conditioner is displayed for the preset time (e.g. 20 seconds at setting 20) on the MMI.

-If the combination turn knob/pushbutton on the Climatronic control unit -J255- is pressed a second time, the MMI display immediately switches back to its main menu.
-At basic setting 5 this function of the air conditioner is displayed for 5 seconds on the MMI.

Hi Guys, just posting this to see if anyone has done this on their 2012/2013 and above tail lights. i found this on youtube. I hope this is just a VAG-com feature to be programmed.??

The price is around 150 EUR for each module, You need 2 modules...
 
Thanks for that C99. for 300 EUR though i think i will pass.
 
Much thanks to the creator of this thread!

But now I am trying to figure out the coding to disable the tail light side marker...

Anyone?

09 – Cent. Elect.] [Coding - 07] -> Long Coding Helper -> Byte 10 Submodule 0
Bit 3 - Set to 0 to disable amber side markers (U.S. vehicles)

This only seems to disable the front...


EDIT:

Here is the coding to disable the rear side markers and confirmed on PRE-FACELIFT ONLY I believe the coding is different for facelift vehicles.

Central Convenience
Security - Enter 16017
Adaptations
Enter Channel 209 and Write Down The Number
Enter Channel 210 and Write Down The Number
Channels 209 and 210 - Change to "0" (That's the number zero)
 
Cool, got a VAGCOM lead and program to have a play this weekend :)

Prob gonna mess it all up hahaha.

Will take screenshots etc before hand ;)
 
Whatever settings/coding you change - make absolutely sure you make a note of the existing coding/settings for a module and what precisely you change. It's the only way you'll be able to go back and undo anything that you might not notice immediately as causing a problem

If you want to learn how all the steps work, do the TPMS activation if you have the correct ABS controller. You need to download the read the coding guide as the long coding element is far from obvious!
 
What Are the best/Necessary VCDS mods

Hi Guys,

I was just wondering what the best VCDS mods were in your opinion.

My brother is a master tech at Audi and has got VAGCOM and the lead he is coming over this weekend and is going to do dome mods for me but I wondered what you guys had done and what you found enhanced the car the most.

I have 2010 A5 Sline Special edition 2.0tdi.

It has MMI 2G High with HDD NAV.

Any help or suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks, I took screenshots of all the codes before I made any changes and so far all seems ok.

How do I do the TPMS as the link in the op is dead?
 
Found it

Click "56-Radio"
Click "Coding 07"
Click "Long Coding Helper"
TAB to "Byte 8" or click it
Check "Bit 6: TPMS Settings Active
Close "Long Coding Helper" Window
Click "Do It!"

I think it's about time I updated the OP! Seems to have been neglected for a while with all these extra posts.
 
What is ADS?


I just done the mirror dipping on the passenger side. Can this be done on the drivers too and can you set how far it dips as at the moment its not a lot?

Also activated the TPMS and the option is up but greyed out, does this mean I cant use it?? Or do you have to activate it in someway??

Audi Drive Select - you chance the characteristics of the car. Ie put it into comfort, dynamic mode etc.

No, the dipping mirror is only available on the passenger side. Your right, it doesn't did far enough for me. I don't use it for that reason.
