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,

  • Do you have Main Beam Assist?

    Read in the manual that there is a feature called Main Beam Assist where it can automatically turn off your high beam so it doesn't dazzle oncoming traffic. I have got a 140 TDI Highline with the Active Corning LED headlight as part of the luxury package, however, I can't seem to find any symbols on the high beam stalk that indicate how to turn the feature on, or do I even have it?

    Anyone?

    It's not enabled in Australian cars. You need someone to enable High Beam Assist with VCDS or OBDEleven. It's still not that good though. It's a little hit and miss and it's designed to only work on speeds over 60ish km/h.

        There are a number of threads within the VCDS coding section regarding this.

        I wish it was active from the factory!

        Myself personally, I can not get it to work!
