    Always show gear in instrument cluster

    Is there a VCDS hack to get my car to always display the current gear? I've got a 2015 manual and I've gotten very comfortable with it (so much so that all my bad driving habit from the auto days have come back...) but one thing I'd really like is for the instrument cluster to always display the current gear I'm in. It shows when I need to up or downshift, and then after a shift the current gear shows up for some time...but then at some point it disappears.

    Help?

    Im of no help to your issue, but after owning a Mk6 R and Mk6 GTI (both manual) this annoyed me also. I always wanted it to show me what gear I was actually in, rather than what gear it thinks I should be in.

    Hopefully one of the VCDS gurus on here might have some info for you.

      For any future readers... doesn't look like it's possible. Oh well.
