    Going to order my parts next week. It will be the 549 B controller as well.

    Ales suggested changing the stalks as well as control for MFD is on the wheel but i an not sure about this. I am used to MFD control from the stalks as i have this in my current other VAG cars. One with mfsw one without.

    The RS is only 8 weeks away so everything should line up nicely.

      He recommended the same to me about the stalks, doesn't really bother me having the original one there with mfsw so just going to keep it. According to threads I've read on it once the new module and MFSW are installed both controls will still work fine.

      Now the wait for the parts to turn up....

        Update: Received my new wheel today, hoping to put it in on the weekend if everything goes well.

        If anyone in Melbourne is willing to help with the coding after it's in let me know, posted a thread in VCDS section but updated here in case some people don't read that section often.

            Will do, just trying to confirm actual coding change required before starting.

            Also hoping I don't have to change the wiper stalk for the one without maxidot controls to get everything to work properly.

              The Scout has the stalk and the MFSW.
              I know for a fact because it was confusing me on my test drive.
              Kept rolling the wheel on the MFSW and the display would change... Ugh!
