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

[Blackpaladin67]

This drives me nuts as well.

Mine just stopped doing this after the latest factory software update it was very annoying !

I don't have access to a mk7.5 at the moment, but just from a theoretical perspective, you might try the following

Leuchte24SL HRA65	Existing Setting	New Setting
Lasttyp 24	43-allgemeine LED	34 - LED Bremsleuchten
Lampendefektbitposition 24	1A	1A

Lichtfunktion C 23	not active	Standlicht allgemein (Schlusslicht; Positionslicht; Begrenzungslicht)
Lichtfunktion D 23	not active	Parklicht links (beidseitiges Parklicht aktiviert li & re)
Dimmwert CD 23	0	50? (choose a value to suit)
Dimming Direction CD 23	maximize	maximize
Lichtfunktion E 23	not active	not active
Lichtfunktion F 23	not active	not active

Lichtfunktion G 23	not active	not active
Lichtfunktion H 23	not active	not active
Dimmwert GH 23	0	0
Dimming Direction GH 23	maximize	maximize

Please note that I have suggested that you reset the illumination level for Dimmwert CD on both Leuchte to a new value. Just from sitting here thinking about the change, it seems that you need a different illumination level between the Brake light function and the Parking light function - else the driver at the rear won't be able to easily distinguish from the inner lights when you are braking (hope this makes sense).

Anyhow try the above suggestion first. If my table above doesn't work - the other way that you might try is to simply copy the settings from the 2 x Brake lights onto the 2 x Leuchte-sets above (of course without changing Lampendefektbitposition or Fehlerort mittleres Byte DTC-DFCC channels )

Automatically adjusting the time and date for daylight savings time has just come up in this thread for cars with MIBII. It should also automatically adjust the time on interstate trips. Daylight Saving Time ?

Make sure you have the time reading off GPS in the settings.

[ahsee]

Thanks a lot Don, I'll try out your suggestions when I get home on Friday night.

Please let us know if it works or not.

anyone know if you can turn on DAB on a Golf Mk7? I can see the setting in VCDS though is hardware needed as well? Will it work in Australia?

Thanks

If you don't have a dab tuner you can't just enable it with software.
You need to have a discover Pro with DAB. If it's not active from factory you don't have a dab tuner.

Bugger - worth a shot

Hey all - can anybody tell me the difference between these adaptations?

17-Instruments
ENG153766-Tube_version
IDE02489-Display depiction

I've got both of mine set to Version 3 (to get what I think are the Golf R dials). Is it necessary to change both? The reason I ask is I noticed if I just change one of them to a different version - it changes the dials. But following some VCDS settings/instructions form these forums, it said to change both. I'm just wondering why, and what the difference is between them.

[Jap]

Tube version is the different dials (couple of standard, gti and r)
display depiction is the different design in the centre between the dials (if standard clocks you can have a carbon fibre background, if AID then you get a bouncy ball background)

[Rooboy]

Tube version is the instruments (GTI, R instruments) while display depiction is the graphics between the instruments (eg bouncing balls)

[Blackpaladin67]

One must have balls, lifes booring without them!

Also on the display depiction on the AID it changes the colour to gold (so you have to do the colour mod to get the colours how you want them)

Ahhh right! Thanks guys!
