VCDS (VAG-COM) codes and programmable options for Golf Mk7

Thank you agentthumb for your answer.
i can understand the safety regarding this but I would still like to remove that feature when I am in manual mode.
the 1.4 tsi is a lovely little engine and has a lot of tourque from around 1500 to about 4000 rpm.
the turbo on these engines are really small, and I mean really really small so it will not provide much boost over 4k. Therefore I don't want the gearbox to downshift so that the rpm goes to 4500-5000 like it does know.
I hope I can make myself understood, it's been a while since I studied English in school:)

my Brake/Indicator LED at the edge of my outter tails doesn't seem to like turning on (See Image)
http://www.vwwatercooled.com.au/foru...id=25841&stc=1

any ideas on how to turn them on?

Hi, I've followed the below instructions (2016 Golf R), and I'm able to get the indicator and DRLs to blink alternately, however only when the headlights are on, or in 'auto' with headlights on (but not in 'auto' when headlights are off).

Any suggestions on how I would get this to work while headlights are off?

TIA


Blinker opposite DRLs
Central Electronics
Security Code 31347
Adaptation
Search for LB4
change the value in C4 from Standlicht allgemein (parking light general) to Blinken Links Dunkelphase (blinks with left indicator dark phase)
Commit changes
back to Adaptation
Search RB32 and select Leuchte5 TFL RB32
Change the value in C5 from Standlicht allgemein (parking light general) to Blinken Rechts Dunkelphase (blinks with right indicator dark phase)
Commit Changes

Daniel: Hello. Now that's a very interesting set of "Leuchte" programming instructions indeed!! Where did you get them?

Try this:

1. Restore the original values of "C5" and "C4"
2. Change the following:

Adaptation channel	Old Setting	New Setting
(12)-Leuchte4TFL LB4-Lichtfunktion E 4	not active	Blinken Links Dunkelphase
(15)-Leuchte4TFL LB4-Dimming Direction EF 4	maximize	minimize
(12)-Leuchte5 TFL RB32-Lichtfunktion E 5	not active	Blinken Rechts Dunkelphase
(15)-Leuchte5 TFL RB32-Dimming Direction EF 5	maximize	minimize

fonsii: Nice picture, but I don't understand the question - alas! To which section of the tail-light fitting on the picture below are you referring (note that the tails have an un-lit border surrounding the LED clusters)?

thanks for the reply! see image^
so upon braking the red led at the indicator does light up, but otherwise it doesn't.

Thanks for replying Don!

I've followed your table and have found that in 'dunkelphase' the drls and indicator flash in unison, so I've changed to 'hellphase' and now have the desired alternating effect. This is working irrespective of the light switch setting (auto, park lights, headlights, off).

Perfect! Exactly what I was after. Thanks!

Here's the link for where I found the instructions: [V5] ProBoards - Free Forums & Free Message Boards

Hi,

I'd be very keen to learn how to accomplish this indicator pulse, rather than the 'pace car' mod I have at the moment: https://youtu.be/DCn_YiJDrOo

Any suggestions on coding?

Hi Daniel,

Unfortunately, it cannot be achieved with stock tail lights. You need aftermarket ones for that.

I believe the ones you see in the video are those ones :

Dynamic Indicator Adaptor for Original OEM Genuine Tail lights

Actually, I'm wrong!

It can be achieved with this harness apparently. Cool stuff
