I am unable to sucessfully complete the above action. I am following the process listed in the ross-tech Wiki. Though, via VCDS I see displayed that the basic setting is 'done', I continue to have code 00778. During the steering limit stop adaptation, the column will rotate about 45 degrees to the right when the engine is switched off!
I have been searching here, and will continue to do so, but, if anybody has had a similar experience, please .....
I would like to understand what "end impact" is, it always reads "-44.8", is this why the column rotates?
This has come about after disconnecting the battery!
This is an early 5P model, registered in Dec 2004.

It would appear that the combination of having a 'pre-existing' ABS system fault code and disconnecting the battery led to the situation of the steering-assist not 'allowing' its 'resetting' procedure to 'run'.

We fitted a new rear hub yesterday to sort the ABS ( sensor ring had corroded and 'crumbled'), steering 'came back to life' during a 'three-point turn' after doing the adaptations ( basic and limit stop ) !
