Hello guys, I have a simple question.
Do you have the ignition on and engine running at the same time when coding with the VCDS, or is it enough just to have the ignition on?

[M1tchy]

Just the ignition is fine

Can one set somehow to be voltage in cigarette lighter without ignition is on? My previous A6 had it. Thanks

Hi,

Can someone recommend a trustworthy supplier for VCDS system (harness and software) in the UK?

Pick up my new (to me ) A7 in the next few days and want to do some of these mods ASAP.

Cheers.

or Ilexa: VCDS/VAG-COMHEXV2Ent3VIN

There is a few different variants depending on how many cars you want to use it on. Basic one lets you could 3 different cars, then there is a 10 vin and unlimited, price increases accordingly

One thing i noticed today on mine was that the logo on the DIS in the speedo cluster shows a6 instead of a7! I must have changed this by mistake and can't figure out how to get it back onto A7. Anyone have any ideas what module its under to change this?

Instruments I think and it's one of the first few bytes

That's the one. Seems like I change d option to say rest of world(rhd) which changes the logo to a6. Putting it to rest of world(LHD) make it a7 which it was on by default, strange!

I did the same thing years ago. It's pretty random
