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

[AdamD]

Ryan_R: You could be right. I had assumed that audio feedback would come from the car horn.

I have it enabled on my Mk6 GTI (love the feature, very handy), and it's definitely being emitted by the alarm chirper, and not the car horn.

AdamD: Thanks for the confirmation. Looks like this is a feature that I will not have on my mk7.

Collection of Golf 7 Tweaks & Mods (including TMC)

G'day all, a friend of mine (GeckoZAO) told me that many of the Golf MK7 do not have TMC (Traffic Message Channel) working.
I've also noticed there aren't any threads in this forum that collects all the tweaks, MODs for Golf MK7 at the moment.
Therefore I will now open this thread, with all the tweaks and MODs known to share with MK7 owner here.
I will also make sure try to keep this thread up to date if anything new has been found and tested.

Man, I want to buy a VCDS cable but I'm not sure if the price of $300 is justified just for tweaking these stuff..

Hmmm, never really noticed the LED tail light, kinda annoying if the whole strip doesn't turn on!

Alanzidane: Very good stuff!!

I've been waiting for a while for someone to declare the magic number for the TMC tweak. Sucnip's post hinted that it might be "1024" (see http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...ml#post1050415). But your information confirms it!!

I also particularly liked your tweak for the refuel quantity. Very neat indeed given that bit structure in byte 10 of the instrument controller (in Mr. Ross's software) gives no hint at all of the purpose of the hidden bit 4. Very elegant - take $20's from the VWW petty cash tin!!

So did the TMC tweak work for you Don?
