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,

          One does the dials and one does the bouncing balls under the Km/h (can't remember which does what), from you picture.

                Sorry Goublin, not having VCDS, I don't have the step by step, however....

                Ross-Tech: VCDS Tour

                shows the screens for VCDS.

                just assuming from the main screen, the below;
                [SELECT]
                [17 - DASBOARD]
                [ADAPTATION - 10]
                [CHANNEL] and look for both Display Depiction and Tube Version.

                not sure of the actual channel names in VCDS. Someone with more experience may jump in.

                hopefully, this will help.

                    • I had previously done the R dials: Tube_version: variant_4
                      This morning I did the Arteon style background:
                      Display depiction: Version 3 this changes the highlights to gold, however the highlights on the central screen are still blue. Does anyone know if there is a way to get them to match?

                      Thanks,

                      • only way I know is to do the AID colour mod from NZ_GolfR, and set to Version 4 for Display Depiction. Then you can have it what ever colour you want. 65000 odd different colours. You just have to set all 10 colours for it to work.

                        There might be another way that i'm not aware of though.

                        • Not sure if this has happened to anyone else..
                          The Passat was @ Werribee VW getting a potential oil leak looked at (seems to be false alarm, phew!).
                          While there, they claimed there was some directive from VW to update a door controller or something along those lines.

                          I didn't think anything of it, but since they've done this, the comfort open/close no longer works..
                          I've checked VCDS 17.8 and it reckons it's all enabled, but nup.. I've tried both remotes and got nada for open/close.

                          Anyone come across this or have any ideas besides taking it back and complaining? I had to tweak to turn that stuff on in the first place.

                            It sounds lik you just need to run calibration, it can happen after a controller is flashed and reset or the battery is pulled. For each window, put it all the way down, then pull and hold the switch until the window comes to the top, keep it there for a few extra seconds once it's up. Then repeat the same process once more. Once done it should behave itself. If not, take it back to the dealer.

                                I followed the directions and I seem to only get 1 choice. I can also only select All Areas the Footwell or the Doors. All of the RGB settings are defined and the directions have been followed exactly.

                                Has anyone had any luck getting it to work with their Passat?
                                Hey bud did you have any luck on this one?

                                Its bbecause you havent added any colours into your system, you can add up to 10 from memory.
