3. I bought my tiggi brand new and it had this weird glitch on both screens when you get in the car and start the engine. I have a feeling it's got something to do with firmware? Anyone has the same issue? I'm thinking to take it to dealership and get it checked.

I have since this issue once in the year and a bit I have had my car.
If it's doing it all the time, it may be a SW bug and needs to be reloaded on.
Take it back to the dealership and get them to reload the FW

Hi all

I've been trawling this thread but can anyone recommend the best OBDEleven to buy to do these coding modifications?

I have a MY19.5 Highling with DAP, S&V, and Sunroof - just not sure what to get???

Thanks in advance

Or what is the best value OB11 option - just realised OBDEleven is a proprietry type of diagnostics too...

How complicated is coding VCDS? Like I do all our networking at home and no my way around excel? Is it straight forward? I don’t want to buying the gear only to realise I need a masters in computer science to get my sunroof to close.

There is only ONE OBD ELEVEN The rest are signified as OBDII

You buy it from AutoInstruct – The Home of Automotive Guides and Products

If you have never done any coding best to read up about it first as a stuff up can be a bit catastrophic, but is usually able to be reversed if you have done a back up first.


If you have lots of money you can buy a VCDS cable for $450 and use Rosstech software, but OBD Eleven does most things

Rexman, you’ll be fine. Anyone that can follow instructions and is generally logical in their thinking can work it out.

Thats the old V1which isnt readily available and the new V2 is here and is actually cheaper when you take the credits into account They were selling V1 for $139 a few weeks ago so AUTO... are expensive.

The great thing about sites like this is you are able to ask questions and in general someone can point you towards an answer to assist you. Most members are really helpful and love to share information making your search all the better.

Having information available to you, even if it is not the latest or greatest, allows you to further your inquiries to seek what suits your need the most. Being presented with alternate options on how to do things or where to obtain products may not be the cheapest route available but it gives us choice to make a discussion not solely based on cost alone. Considerations should be factored such as location, level of advice required or even what your basic general requirement is before you go down a particular path, what works for someone may not be what the other needs or wants.

We all should factor this into account before commenting to posts and try to understand others point of view. If we agree or not, than this site is not really the place to feel you have the authority to police. The tone of language used in some posts may be viewed as rude, insulting or downgrading to some but direct and to the point to others. The object of sites such as this is to share our knowledge and experience in a respectful way so we all enjoy sharing.

. My last post wasnt meant to be anything but saying that the old unit is no longer available and that the advertised one must be old stock and is expensive, when with the new one you get about $40 worth of credits included.
It is also supposedly about 20% faster in operation and will do limited things with an Iphone

I notice there is a new app in ODBEleven called "Turn Signals Blinking with Rear Light" that I don't think I've seen before. Has anyone done this to their Tiguan? Would it be legal to do in Oz?

Looked at that and some havent been able to get it to work and I question what would it look like if you have the brakes on as well Would it still pulse and confuse following drivers or not.

I dont use the Apps as you dont really know what they change . Much prefer to use coding
