To do that just follow the instructions for enabling it using VCDS but not the part about hidden menus etc.

And I can confirm the steering does get either stiffer or softer depending on setting. Its only adaptive suspension that will not work (unless you have the suspension), so I did not enable that bit.

ok gonner do the mod now and see how it feels, whats the settings in hidden menu for cars with 2g ?

Just remember what you change incase you need to put it back! I cant help with 2g, as mine is 3G, but all I did with the hidden menu is activate the settings and then enable it to show in the CAR menu to be controlled via MMI.

Hii how did you find the ADS mod? I'm retro fitting it for 2g tomorrow any tips?

Not got round to it yet mate, need to look for 2g settings in hidden menu

I will be under Charisma in the cars menu maske (yes maske) menu.

Do you have instructions with how to access it?
thanks

I'll go out to the car now ;)

ADS doesn't support my A6 but as I have MMI 2G the option is still there.

Video uploading to YouTube now.

okay so just done a quick video to show people with MMI 2G how to enable it.

ADS will be shown in your CAR menu. It won't show it on my A6 as my chassis doesn't support it but this is the procedure anyway ;)

You do need to enable the hidden menu via vcds for this to work -

[Select]
[07 - Control Head]
[Adaption - 10]
Drop-down Menu
[Select - Service Menu]
Change 'New Value'to 1
[Test]
[Save]

Drop-down Menu
[Select - MMI System Retstart]
Change 'New Value' to 1
[Test]
[Save]
*MMI will now restart*
[Done, Go Back]
