Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

        So after going to pick it up it doesn't have ACC or Rev camera, but still happy.

        I'm just having issues with the kufatec Fiscon, I believe it needs to be re-coded as I only get St-update and version in the setup menu

          What year is the R36 with ACC as I didn't realise they installed it in those

          I recon you're better off replacing it with a 9W7 or 9ZZ VW Bluetooth unit. My mate has a kufatec and I believe the Kufatec units are ok but not as good functionality wise compared to the 9ZZ, also heard Bluetooth music streaming quality is not as good

          I have a 2011 CC I'm wrecking and have the highline flip out camera which can be installed, as well as dynaudio if you don't have that either

            ACC wasn't standard on any year but was optioned on some of the last few batches. Retrofit is possible, though pretty involved and coding is a bit of a nightmare from what some have written. Not sure if anyone in Aus has done one but I reckon it would be cool to have.
            Likely need updated gateway, abs, cluster as well as the radar unit and front badge.

              True, that would be a pain to install. Were they ever optioned with Lane Assistant?

                Yes I believe so.

                  Interesting didn't realise they had ACC and lane assistant as a option, I thought VW first introduced it in the CC
