Hi Tinnycan are you able to help a man out with VCDS in Dublin? I am looking to activate some extra features on my audi a6 but dont have the cable etc. I would pm but I don't have enough posts!

Thanks for your help.

[Tinnycan]

What part of Dublin are you in, I live in Baldoyle Dublin 13.

I'm in Swords. Would you be able to help me to change some of the settings? I was hoping to add visual parking aid, pasanger mirror dip, battery meter and a few other things.

I don't use it for the extra settings, you will have to do them yourself if you know.

A6 C6 VCDS Changes - Post & Pre Facelift (http://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?92769-A6-C6-VCDS-Changes-Post-amp-Pre-Facelift)

All tweaks here under facelift, I will be updating the Facelift section when I get home this evening with Parking Visual Lines and Mirror Dip.

[Pityyoufools]

Thats ok Tinnycan I'm willing to give it a go if I can use your cable. If you are willing, PM me your address and a time your free.

A6_Chris thanks for updating maybe include Scandanavian DRL, battery meter, oil temp gauge and boost if they are different to pre face lift.

Thanks Lads

I'll look into the scandanavian option, it'll be a tickbox in Cent Elec.

Battery meter is there in the same option as VIM on the thread. Oil temp and boost will be a tickbox near the tickbox for Gauge Test/Needle sweep.

Thread updated, rear drl, mirror dip and laptimer/boost added :)

Hi Tinnycan
I was wondering if you could help me
I have a 2008 B6 Passat and was looking to upgrade the RCD300 radio to The Rcd 510
From what I have read cars before 2008 will need a Can Bus upgrade but 2008 on wards
dont need it....Confused yet....lol
There is only 2 ways of finding out
1 stripping the unit out and checking the numbers
or pluging in a cable and asking the computer

Any chance you could, you could help un confused me

Thanks
Pat
