I suspect that your fairly unique "wants" might be outside the capabilities of what is possible - but I'm more than happy to be proven wrong! So I suspect that you may need to accept some form of compromise to your (fairly unique) wants and ultimately I think that you will need to apply changes to a combination of functions - but I'm just guessing.

However, there are a group of similar channels in the hex5F module that might be worth investigating in conjunction with the hex17 module channels. I've not experimented with the hex5F channels below - so I can't be definitive as to whether they will help:

ENG117916-ENG101574-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X1

ENG117916-ENG99557-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X2

ENG117916-ENG102140-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X3

ENG117916-ENG102936-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X4

ENG117916-ENG103548-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X5

ENG117916-ENG113992-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-X6

ENG117916-ENG99777-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y1

ENG117916-ENG100480-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y2

ENG117916-ENG100773-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y3

ENG117916-ENG100631-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y4

ENG117916-ENG102174-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y5

ENG117916-ENG113993-Dimming_Illumination_for_Display_Unit-Y6

Again, this just a suggestion (guess, really), but I'd welcome any feedback from your experiments -please

Hi Don, I tried the addresses you suggested but I just kept getting a security access code required. I tried using S12345 as VCDS suggested and although it accepted that code it still came up asking for a code once I tried changing values. Do you have a code I could try?

^^^ I have posted a fulsome set of security codes for MQB platform vehicles (like the mk7) on the Ross-Tech forum HERE.

If you can't access this part of the RT forum, an earlier version of my security code list can be found HERE

Referring to this post here.


I just coded option 1 and 2 of the Fog Light Tweak on my NAR spec MY19 GTI with the LED headlamps / fog lamps with success!

Thanks for the admap (I'll add it to the others in my database)

For the boot-lid open tweak - do this (bracketed entries are your default values):

ENG116956-ENG116267-Leuchte20BR LA71-Lichtfunktion G 20 > Heckdeckel offen (not active)
ENG116956-ENG116269-Leuchte20BR LA71-Dimmwert GH 20 > 100 (0)

ENG116957-ENG116286-Leuchte21BR RC8-Lichtfunktion G 21 > Heckdeckel offen (not active)
ENG116957-ENG116288-Leuchte21BR RC8-Dimmwert GH 21 > 100 (0)


For the fog light tweak, just follow my instructions HERE

For the 3rd Brake light tweak try this (although I have received feedback that the first 2 x options can be problematic on some mk7.5s):

Boot-lid open tweak works!

Fog light tweak works!

3rd brake light tweak half works and you did mention it could be problematic. After going through the coding chart to compare my stock values against the tweaks I noticed something odd. ENG116302-Leuchte 22BR MA57-Lichtfunktion F 22 stock value was "Ruekfahrlicht" and not set to "Not Active". I went ahead and coded it to "Blinken rechts Dunkelphase" per the instructions and after coding everything else the only visible tweak results are:

1. When using L or R turn signal the 3rd brake light flashes in sequence (didn't really want this because I feel it could confuse drivers??)

2. Hazard button engaged flashed 3rd brake light in sequence with rear turn signals (does not work)

3. Rear turn signals flash in sequence with 3rd brake light (does not work)

Hello, I've got a question about the headlights on my golf 7.5 with "simple led" I've got the \_ _/ and not the \_\_ _/_/. Now is my question:
I want my white drls orange and when I turn the blinkers on it needs to be blinking white. Just the opposite of default from factory. (here in EU) But the most important what I want is that the Amber (corner lights) shining always. Same as US standlight golf 5. I've searched everything but I can't find it. I only find it for the golf 7. Not the 7.5 with led (lowbeam)

Is there a way to keep the reverse camera on when flicking from reverse to drive? My Kodiaq keeps the cameras on till around 15kph, which I've found to be nice when doing multiple-point manoeuvres.

Anyone know how to get the ignition push start to pulse like a heartbeat? Some SEAT models do this and I've seen videos of people coding this to their VW models but not sharing the code.

Nevermind! Don have me the codes and I can confirm it works. Posted it on YouTube.

Doesn't work for me on my Mk7R - is this a Mk7.5 thing?
