A guide to enable EU specific features for AU Spec Tiguans

[Fried_noodles]

Hi,

There didn't seem to be clear instructions on this thread on how to enable the Adaptive Lane Guidance. Instructions below are for OBDEleven owners:

1) Go to Front Sensors Driver Assistance System in the Control Units (Module A5)
2) Security Access - code is 20103
3) Coding - Point of intervention - Set this to early (setting via menu)

You should then see the option in the driver assistance settings of the car menu. Works perfectly for me by keeping the car centre in the lane. But this only works above 65km/h. So there are two more changes missing to make this into a TJA function:

1) Allow Adaptive Lane Guidance to work below 65km/h
2) Allow the ACC to stop and start without the 3 second limit

Hope this helps!

Cheers mate, OP updated.

Edit: I meant the OP in the Mk2 Tiguan VCDS Tweaks page was updated.

Do you know how to get the additional Warning Level option to appear like peanut did in his post #1 in this thread?

Hi,

no I haven't managed to enable the warning setting but I don't think the warning is relevant. If you have the DAP package then lane assist is actively steering for you rather than the basic lane assist which gives you a warning only. So if you have Adaptive Lane Guidance which is the most advanced lane assist option, I'm not sure why the warning would be needed or even useful.

would not know what it does to the lane guidance behaviour if we can't bring that option up to try ... otherwise anybody that has that option can tell us its function

Thanks for posting the ALG activation instructions.

Is there any other step that needs to be done?

OBDeleven first timer here. I followed your instructions but the menu on my imfotainment system doesn't show ALG, even after turning the ignition off and on again.

No that was it. Make sure you press the green ticks to accept changes. Maybe try the adaptions section and change the point of intervention to early. But I didn't have to do this

[latearrival]

I did press the green tick & got the coding accepted message. Would you mind telling me more about the Adaptions setting?

laterarrival. after playing around with these ODB, please show it clearly ....

Sorry guys. User error! In my haste I had chosen "early", not realising that the option was "early (setting via menu)". Now off to test it on the freeway...

EDIT: Just took the Tig for a spin down the freeway and ALG works as advertised - the car stays between the lines rather than zig zagging between them (or hugging one). Given the constant requests to return your hands to the wheel though, I do wonder what use ALG is, apart from the sheer novelty value.

Thankyou. Works perfectly.

TMC Traffic
Can be enabled via VCDS or OBDEleven. Works perfectly. I have tried this with my Tiguan.

[FONT=verdana]Information Control Unit
Fee-based traffic information (TMC)
Change value from 65535 to 1024Coding:

Ensure that Traffic and RDS is enabled in radio.

[/FONT]

Could anyone who has done this successfully please tell me what their RDS setting looks like? In my Radio Settings I have a "RDS Regional" setting with a choice of "Automatic" or "Fixed". But should there be a "Radio Data System" checkbox? Or is what I have, the only RDS setting?

The whole point of enabling ALG is the control it gives UNDER 60KPH where in conjunction with ACC it is hoped TJA will then become active.

To answer my own question, for anyone else that's new to all this...

The only thing I had to do in the car's Radio Settings menu was to ensure "Traffic Program (TP)" was ticked and then, under Advanced Settings, that "RDS Regional" was set to "Automatic".





The traffic information didn't become immediately available - TMC was crossed out in the TRAFFIC menu - but became available at some point later. I'm not sure how long that was, maybe an hour or so.

Yes, that makes sense.
