I've just become the proud owner of a Polo 6R-my14 (tag on the passenger side pillar says "model R1, version 3F7"). When I hooked up my VCDS cable to the car (genuine Ross-Tech Hex+CAN, USB) using the latest SW, I got some real strange readings. The Auto scan works fine, but a lot of the status readings on the 09-Cent. Elect. module appear to be incorrect (i.e. many of the bit-checkboxes that should be ticked are not and visa versa). A fellow colleague on VWW has indicted that he also gets odd VCDS readings on his 6R (albeit he says that his problems are intermittent).
This was not a known problem when I raised the matter on the Ross-Tech forum but Uwe Ross indicated that perhaps VW had made changes to the BCM in their later versions of the 6R. He undertook to investigate further.
Before RT delves deeper into this matter and to help establish whether this is an isolated problem (or a more systemic issue), I thought that it might be advantageous to find-out if others are having similar issues with their cables.
From what Mr. Ross is saying, I guess it's primarily a question of what version 6R you have and whether the readings from the VCDS cable look OK (perhaps a good starting point is the 09-Cent Elect.module).
The BCM readings from my car are on post #74 on the following link (see last column in the table, look particularly at bytes 16, 19, 23):
I'd welcome responses-thanks in advance.
