    I was just thinking if we take a step back from this. If this is something that’s temperature related then it must get information from a sensor.
    Have you guys checked you don’t have an issue with coolant temp sensor or engine temp?
    That could be the reason it’s not working. There’s been a few post of poor consumption and car dropping temp so it might be related.

    Just drove home in car. When cold red line is about 4200rpm. Once the coolant temp hit about 4bars the red line is at 4800.

    Let me just throw a wild card in here.

    The whole "variable red line" thing is an interesting piece of dashboard bling but REALLY (REALLY?) does it mean anything?
    Based on my observation of it's starting (~4000RPM) and end points (~5200RPM) versus the actual engine water and oil temps (water not fully hot and oil temp does not register so <60C) there is NO WAY I would rev the engine to either the starting or ending point until the engine was properly warm - oil temp in the high 70's in winter or into the 80s in the warmer months.

    The point I'm making is "what's the point?" For track use maybe it has some value but for a diesel car that you want to have a long life it is pointless... dashboard bling.

    If folks want to make it work for the sake of it working then I can understand that but personally I'd not invest a lot of time in it.. there are probably other fish to fry that would yield a more nutritious meal.

    Temp does get up to 90 bud

    For your what’s the point:

    Because its a retrofit and I’d like to have it how it left the factory if it had said retrofit

    Water temp or oil temp get up to 90?
    Oil temp can be pushed to 105C with spirited driving - and I'm sure that track use would push it further. But I'd not "push" an engine until the oil is (at the very least) "hot" - so on a BiTdi in winter that is high 70s... you simply won't get it any higher without loading the engine a bit. Summer it will get to mid 80s in normal driving.

    Might be worth having a look at the central convenience module(46). These are somewhat connected to the cluster. Could be a code that needs turned on or you might need the highline version.
    Will drop a scan of 46 so you can compare when I’m home.

    I think the enjoyment of getting something working and it’s great how places like these forums get people together to problem solve something like this. Otherwise it will be quite boring here😄
    If you think a few years from now there will be lots of these cars second hand and ripe for modding and retrofits, this post could save someone hours of mucking around as we already tried and tested it.

    I have done the same retrofit on the colour DIS and had the RMC unit but have now retrofitted the 3G Plus MMI you will only get maps (Street View) in the DIS if you have a MMI 3G Plus, the RMC did not support it. you also have to add a fibre optic cable from the MMI to the colour DIS to get street view to function.
    My red Line stays always on 5K
