    peanut: caution when doing tweaks is always wise -regardless of which MQB platform vehicle is being modified.

    I've just been looking through the adaptation maps from VWVY's Tiggy (which he kindly allowed me to take this afternoon - many thanks again Victor). There appear to be many identical adaptation channels between the two models -so I suspect that there will be a degree of congruence with tweas from other MQB vehicles (including the mk7)

    However, there are also many different adaptation channel descriptors, as you say. Whilst I'm sure that there will be entirely new channels in the newer modules, it appears in lots of cases where the changed names are superficial - so it's not difficult in these cases to "translate" the tweak instructions into Tiggy speak

    Here's an example: For the mk7, the BCM has a channel name IDE01268-ENG126844-Windshield wiper-Washer_Tipwiping_Variant whereas the Tiggy reports this channel as ENG10610-ENG126844-Front_wiper-Washer_Tipwiping_Variant.

    I guess my message to would-be VCDS/VCP/OBD11 "tweakers" is certainly proceed with caution, but likewise, don't discount the wealth of established and now-mature instructions that resides on forums for other MQB models (like mk7 Golf). I'm also a fan of the advantage of making errors in the leaning curve - they are by far the very best learning experience!

    It will be obvious which tweaks won't work because you just won't be able to find the adaptation channels -so you won't be able to proceed. Tweaks that require changes to a module's code string are a bit more problematic and these should be approached with more care. In general if you are using instructions from another model NEVER just rely on instructions like "Change Byte 2, Bit 0" - ALWAYS make sure that you have access to the Long coding helper screen from the other vehicle - and compare this Byte/Bit descriptor with that of the Tiggy

    And most definitely, BEFORE YOU START making changes, create a complete database of the "virgin" settings in your car - the admaps from VWVY'S Tiggy this morning had well over 5,000 adaptation channels and the ABS module alone had a massive Byte count of 47 bytes - in just this module (incidentally, the ABS module on the MY17 mk7 has exactly the same Byte-count)

    Hi Don, thanks for the thoughtful advice you provided. I'm more of an amateur than an experienced VCDS veteran like you.

    I believe that you are correct in your manner. e.g. personally I cannot find how to enable the DRL menu in my Tiguan because they changed the adaptation, but I know it definitely still exists.

    Do you by any chance know the SA for Module 13? By gaining access to module 13, I believe this will allow us to enable Emergency Assist and Traffic Jam Assist, and hopefully Pedestrian Assist as well.

      Just to give an update the coding for the Dynamic Road Sign Display works on NZ version of the Tiguan R Line (forgot to mention earlier that I didn't need to change Byte 24, Bit 6 in Module 5F as it was already activated).

      The only issue is that I don't get the road signs showing in the Heads Up Display, I do get the warning there if I go over the set speed limit though. I noticed that if I go into the Heads Up Display setting in the Car Setup screen there is no option to turn this on or off like the other features so I am guessing there is additional coding need to enable this. When I get a chance I will have a look at the modules and see what other adaptations there are to see if I can find this one to enable it.

        Oh yes, I forgot to include the instructions for enabling traffic signs on HUD because such spec doesn't exist in Australia.

        I will dig around to see how it can be enabled.

        EDIT: Try this, I compared coding with someone else. No guarantees that it will work because I haven't tried it.

        Module 82

        Long Coding

        Byte 0, Activate Bit 0.

          No dramas, figured that the HUD settings wasn't important to you guys since you miss out on it (despite what everyone says I actually find it an awesome option that is really useful). I will have a dig around as well and let you know if I find anything so you can update the post.

                Can anyone confirm that enabling Adaptive Lane Guidance works as expected, i.e. keeps the car in the centre of the lane, rather than 'bouncing' it off the lane markings (like Active Lane Assist)?
                Yes it works as expected. It keeps the vehicle in the centre, or whatever position you prefer the vehicle to be at. Amusing to see it work its magic at first, but then it takes away some part of the driving experience. Still helpful for someone like me who's lazy to put their hands on the wheels all the time.

                    How did you find that? Can you show me how? Through VCDS or did you dismantle your headlight?

                      I found it in ETKA, in the morning I can confirm it on my car (now it's 00:29 here).

                        peanut: thank you for the kind words, but alas I'm just like you when it comes to VCDS - the more I discover, the more I realize what I don't know!

                        Anyhow - enough of self deprecating comments, your inability to identify the correct adaptation channel for the DRL Menu facility is exactly the situation that I mentioned above whereby the Tiggy control module has a superficial change in the name of the adaptation channel. So here's the instruction for this tweak in "Tiggy speak":

                        Disable/enable Daytime Running Lights using Discover Media screen (Tiggy mk2)

                        The following coding is used:
                        1 Select 09-Cent. Elect.
                        2.Select Security Access-16
                        3. Enter the magic number 31347
                        4. click Do it! tab
                        5. Select Adaptation-10
                        6. Enter ENG10575-ENG116594 into the search box and from pull-down channel list, select ENG10575-ENG116594-Außenlicht_Front-Tagfahrlicht Aktivierung durch BAP oder Bedienfolge moeglich
                        7. Enter New value = active (default stored value = "not active").
                        Click Do it! .
                        Click Add to log to record a copy of the change report .
                        Click Go Back and exit the VCDS software

                        Using the function

                        1. Select Car from the buttons on the side of the media screen. Then press Setup (on the bottom RHS)
                        2. Select Light
                        3. Enable the "tick" on Daytime Running Light (tick-on DRLs on, tick-off DRLs off



                        The Security access code for the module @ address hex13 for the mk7 is 14117. Hope this works on the Tiggy!

                        Don

                        Incidentally, this same tweak instructions (above) will work if you are using an OBDeleven dongle - except that your search criteria should be Front, then select the "Parent" adaptation channel Außenlicht_Front then select the "Child" channel Tagfahrlicht Aktivierung durch BAP oder Bedienfolge moeglich. The rest is exactly the same!

                        Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the wider expertise of other forum members! Thank you.

                          Yes, can confirm that did work and I can now toggle this on and off in the Heads Up Display settings in the Car Setup menu. Looks pretty cool:



                          I don't have a VCDS scan of the car as using OBDEleven dongle but I take a backup of each module before I modified it so can send you some or all of these if that would help.

                              Thanks for that. I use OBDEleven, so will be giving a shot tonight to see if it works.
