Auto lane change

[GolfieAU]

Hi everyone,

I just got a 2023 Golf Life and saw this video on youtube. Just wondering if our Golf mk8 have the same feature in Australia?

I would love to try it but can’t quite figure it out on the highway. Too scared to try haha.

Thanks,

If you don't already have the added option under Assistance Settings > Travel Assist then no. I doubt Volkswagen Australia would be offering this option.

However, because you've got a 2023 model you may be able to enable it via coding.

You car will need the following:
1. Lane Keeping Assist
2. Travel Assist
3. ACC
4. Park steering assistant - Control unit 76 5WD919298 5WA919298 or 5R3919298 (12 sensors)
5. Control unit A5 (front camera) at least 5WA980653D software version 3400

If your car meets the pre-requisites above then the instructions for enabling it with OBDeleven (at your own risk) are:
1. Control unit 09 - Adaptations
- BCM driver assistance turn signal functions:
- Travel_Assist_Blinken: Active

2. Control Unit 44 – Long Coding
- Qfk_ma_function: Active

3. Control unit A5 – Long Coding
- HC_Variante: Variante_3
- HC_mob_line: Coded

This option doesn't appear to be restricted by SWAP or FEC. But you do have to have the latest hardware introduced from around mid-2022.
