Could I use an OBDeleven device to set up pace car indicators on my golf 7 r? Seems like the cheaper way rather than buying a Ross tech cable

Isaac: Hello. The short answer is YES!Quote:

I personally find the OBD11 format to be more intuitive - and I suspect that in the near future VCDS will do the same.
So to access a particular adaptation channel with OBD11, you will first need to identify the Parent-root and then a second screen identifies the children adaptation channels. This means that there are no parentheses used in any adaption channels with OB11 (as is the case with VCDS).
And yes, it's a much cheaper alternative - but you will need an Android tablet/mobile phone and you will need good internet service at the place of use! The other good feature of OBD11 for newbies is their Apps. These are one-click facilities for implementing those more complex tweaks. They generally cost 10 credits per App, but for less experienced users, they are a good, easy way to make changes- great niche product (IMO)
But VCDS is a much more mature device and it's a more stable platform (IMO). The Lithuanians are still developing their OBD11 product, so it's unclear how future proof it will be

PS: I wrote a short product review about OBD11 on the mk7 forum- that you might find interesting
Thank you very much, I've just ordered one :)Quote:

Do you know whether it is possible through VCDS set the change of the white LED lights in red on the doors in selecting the Sport Drive profile as on Leon 5F?
Hi Don,
I just ordered the OBD11 following your review. Just wondering mate, do you think I'll be able to implement your instrument lighting curve with this device?

Kiaorana: Hi. Yes, most (all?) tweaks on my VCDS reference thread can be performed by OBD11. There are two tweaks related to instrument cluster illumination: If you want the complete lighting for all items in the instrument cluster and the infotainment screen to be increased, then I suggest you use my tweak - if for example, you have installed tinted windows. But if you only want to increase the illumination of the clock dials, then I recommend ZEAL8080's tweak. You will find a couple of modifications to ZEAL's original values at the bottom of the tweak instructions.Quote:

Here's the pertinent bit of the Parent list for both ZEAL's and my tweaks which appear after you have clicked-on "Adaptation" (scroll-down almost to the end of the Parent list, or use the search function):

If you want to apply ZEAL's tweak, here's the Child adaptation channels:

Hello guys I need the coding for my stock (bulb lights) rear tail lights anyone got a clue how I can get it? It's a European car bought in Sweden, I can't ask my dealer as I still have warranty they will most likely remove it cause it messed it up so if anyone can provide me with the stock tail light coding you get that'd be great as my tail lights is not working correctly at the moment and I'm afraid I probably messed it up more so I have to code it to stock
Please I really need the help from you guys
Hi unor92, I am from Sydney Australia. I previously experience this issue, I had messed my tail light settings before.
what I have done is going through the log history and revert the setting. The log file should be under the vcd program folder. Pleas have a try!
