Got the mirror dropping get and returning ok, as mentioned it needed adjusting whilst the car was in reverse.

Still need to get headlight converter sorted though....

Still need to get headlight converter sorted though....

Do you have xenons or filament headlamps?

[Issac Hunt]

Xenons

This is if you have 3g without phone, depending on the part number its going to be 3g with nav

You fit the microphone pack and enable the phone bingo, you now have mmi 3g with phone

The hardware is already installed in the 5f control unit (depending on pr number)but not enabled if it was not specified

Its been a closed shop on this little retro fit same as ami, where again you add the ami wiring and enable it.

Be interesting to carry this out as there seems to be plenty of ebay sellers offering the service at ££££££.

I became interested in this recently when looking through the green menu for dvd ripping and the owner mentioned he had just had the phone enabled by an ebay seller

Looked at a few different vehicles then went about the long haul google process and forums which have deleted the information for obvious financial reasons


Post up your menu from the settings screen

with bluetooth phone and dvd rip enabled plus ami
Attachment 9883Attachment 9884

No doubt sds needs enabling plus the usual long code changes for mfsw etc

My interest is for educational purposes

A8Tech, does this mean you can use BT to connect to google maps via a mobile phone? This is the mod I ultimately want

Hi all, just joined the forum as I've been looking for someone that can do the VAG-COM mods in the Glasgow area ??
If there's anyone out there, please get in touch.
Thanks

Look in the User Location subforum of the VCDS section. You'll also find a user map.

Any chance a Moderator on this forum can update the original post of this thread with a list of all VCDS tweaks available for the B8? Saves having to scroll through the pages and makes it easier for someone to find them right away... I've got the below from another forum (American but coding should be the same). I plan on getting some of these done soon and a list on first page will help. Unfortunately I don't have the correct ABS module for TPMS (one of best tweaks I have found and something which would have helped greatly a couple weeks ago)

For reference (not sure I can post links to other forums but referenced so it doesn't look like i'm taking credit for the below) - VCDS & Hidden menu: The complete list

*Suggestion: Print this and check off the mods you've activated and store it with your owner's manual - Will come handy when you need to re-do the coding after an ECU flash.

Here's the list I've compiled so far:

• Disable After-wipe of windscreen wipers
• Disable amber corner lights
• Disable amber side markers
• Disable Key warning (keyless models)
• Disable LED 'wink' on turn signal
• Disable "Lights are on" warning
• Disable NAV & Phone warning messages while entering data at speed
• Disable Seatbelt Chime
• Enable Adaptive brake lights
• Enable Ambient Interior Lighting Control
• Enable Automatic Gear selection shown in DIS
• Enable Automatic Hill Hold Assist 'lite'
• Enable Auxiliary ventilation
• Enable Battery meter
• Enable DIS with Efficiency Program
• Enable Double Disarm Beep
• Enable DRL Selectable via MMI
• Enable DRL
• Enable Euro parking lights that turn on signal at night
• Enable fog lamp to come on for the same side as that turn signal
• Enable Front Turn Signals as Parking lights
• Enable Gauge Test/Needle Sweep
• Enable Hidden menu in MMI
• Enable Import CDs to MMI's HD
• Enable Independent Fogs control with high beams
• Enable Lap Timer / Oil Temp DIS
• Enable LEDs remain bright for parking lights
• Enable Rear Tail Lights on with DRLs
• Enable Release Parking Brake without putting foot on Brake
• Enable Release Parking Brake without putting seatbelt
• Enable Remote Operation windows&sunroof
• Enable Reverse mirror tilt
