Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    When you increased your DRL brightness - is that for when the headlights are on? Or for when they're off?

    I've also just done the "Enable DRL on/off" option via the entertainment unit, and also changed the throttle response (the mod where you say your car is an Audi instead of a VW - haha). Will go for a drive shortly to see if I can feel the difference.

    Will let you know how I go about the google maps mod. There was a fair bit to it, so I'm working my way up to it.

      i haven't yet enabled the traffic reporting capability on mine as i've heard mixed reports about it.

        Yes it does... It always tells me the route has traffic related delays of X minutes. It always re-routes based on incidents and road closures.

          I heard mixed reports about it aswell but so far I've found it to be actually quite accurate.

            • 15k Sevice & software update

              So i took my car in its sevice and a software update fix an issue particular to my build date to do with the disabled driver feature. No half of my mods dissapeared and its doing some things it never did before. Two example which immediately come to mind are the dash now reversts to the function it was on before eg radio station after a phone call is made evrn though the centre display keeps on the phone menu secondly if you open the passenger door the mirrors stay folded up. Will advise other changes as i come accross them. Also have to now redu several missing features such as TSA and interior led colours. All very strange

                  Wow that is very annoying!

                  I've got a backup of all my factory settings that I've placed into a single spreadsheet with different worksheets per control module, and I've got columns against each adaptation of what was the factory setting, and what my custom value is. This way it's easy to keep track of what changes I've made (plus they're easy to find because I highlighted my changes with a fill colour).

                          Arteon Ambient light &amp; LED Colour change

                          I kept the 3 factory colours in positions 1,2 and 3 - and just added my own. I managed to get a pretty good orange out of my wife's Skoda. For some reason when I did orange in my Arteon (Blue 0, Green 255, Red 255) - I ended up with white. There's a couple of colours I'm still trying to work out.

                          But.... I got a nice pink, purple, 100% green looks AWESOME, and so does 100% red. 100% blue is too dark to see on the dash, but looks good in the doors at night. (this is just where you go 255 in one colour, and 0 out the others).
