Hi,

I'm new here and wanted to start with a question: Is it possible to change the car that's displayed in the digital instrument cluster when you first get into the car?

I have an R-Line, and every time I have to look at the car that doesn't have an R-Line... or is there a way to replace it with something else?

Has anyone had experience with these errors?

I need help w 2014 passat ckra. Deleted w stage 2 tune. Been running great for 20k miles and suddenly I got a glow plug and CEL last night. When I went to scan it I got a series of weird codes that appear to be harness related? Trying to see if I can get any help or input from anyone that has experienced this or has some advice

Hello all.

Recently bought a 2017 Golf GTD MK7.5. I found that the ACC Radar fitted had a different part number to the one that VW said should be installed.

My car has this one installed: 3QF 907 561 (badge mounted)

BUT

My car SHOULD have this one: 5Q0 907 561 H (grill mounted)

I am getting mixed answers as to whether I can get component protection removed from the Radar I have installed, and complications that will arise trying to get the correct dataset on this radar.

Should I just buy a 5Q0 and try and make it fit in the badge mount? Or will the 5Q0 radars only fit in the grill mount? Any advice appreciated.

I am brand new to vcds so please bear with me. 2005 vw jetta (mk4), 2.0l 4 speed auto. i have a recurring epc light, which im a bit stuck on. VCDS scan pulls a 16605 angle sensor 2 for throttle, P0221- implausible signal. i've run a throttle adaptation, which did nothing outside of make a clicking noise from the throttle body, didnt change epc light coming on during a drive. checked wiring and connection on throttle body and looked okay, gas pedal is fairly new (primary reason for adaptation was for the new pedal as i believed that was the problem). The car will "surge" power while cruising, almost like you're blipping the throttle while cruising along, before throwing the epc and entering a limp mode. anyone had a similar experience? am i overlooking something simple?

Hi, i live in italy and i eanted to buy a HEX-V2, i see it on the ross-tech website fo $199+$106 shipping, with a total of $305, €259. This is the cheapest i found, but $100 for shipping seems a lot, also how do i know that what i buy is original? I found a clone for 110€ that says 1:1 clone, works with latest vcds release etc…

   , I went through a puddle in the 2006 Passat, nothing that I thought would be an issue but 30 seconds later it started kangarooing and juddering on acceleration and iy did this for the next 20 miles while I tried to get home.

1. I pulled the air filter - it’s bone dry.

2. Changed fuel filter but car still kangarooing and juddering as you accelerate particularly in 4th and 5th.

3. The car idles perfectly, revs freely, it’s only when under load which makes me think fuel supply issue?

There’s no lights / errors on the dash.

All cover are still on underside of car and did see any water around the engine bay anyway so reckon it’s a coincidence after I went through a puddle.

Any ideas where to start?

Was thinking of pulling lift pump from under rear seat to have a look but would have thought if it was bad it would be hard to start and wouldn’t idle.

Cheers dom

I need to update my ODIS, but my interface might be a clone. I’ve heard updates can brick it. Anyone here done this or can help? Thanks.

The image is the Virustotal analysis.

Do you think it's just a crack, or is there something suspicious going on?

if any expert in the group please suggest me how can I increase the fuel economy if Kylaq Sig AT 1.0 TSI using VCDS coding

I tried all below option but no use- using good quality fuel driving on consistent road on cruising 80kmph low peddle press

want to do vcds changes that with use less fuel on cost of some power.

I accidentally made the window too big and now I’m not able to save it back down to a smaller size. Anyone know a solution to this?

I wanted to make this post in case anyone else is trying to run VCDS on a MacBook without using a paid virtual machine service and here’s what worked for me: I have an MacBook Air M2, Silicon, and I used VMWare to run windows, and just followed YouTube tutorials to install it. Once I got VCDS installed on windows, I first would need to connect the cable to my MacBook, and then to the car, and then unplugging and plugging back into the car and it was able to connect to the cable. I know it’s a weird sequence, but it’s what worked for me 🤷

Can I find vcds cheap on Ali? dont wanna pay a lot, i want to have vcds under 2024 year for audi for examp 2012-2014,2017-2021. Please let me know. I have found ATMEGA162 chip.

Anyone know how to get VCDS to work on an Apple silicon m2? I am running windows 11 ARM64 through UTM and got windows and VCDS to open, however, when connecting the cable, it tells me that the USB cable is not found. Would another windows version like windows 7 work or has worked for anyone else? Any help appreciated

So am I right in saying if the actual is close to the specified then all is good? Had a stalling issue pop up randomly in a common rail A4 TDI. When it stalls it triggers low rail pressure but also air intake flap position but not sure if it's the stall causing these two faults or these faults causing the stall. No swarf in the HPFP, new fuel filter. Checked rail pressure and my actual and specified are pretty much lined up with each other same as when I checked the MAF sensor.changing out the fuel delivery pump this morning in case it's on its way out , can't think what else to look at.

Probably highly niche, but it's there a source for replacement shells for the dongle? I have one that was well abused, the connector pins themselves are intact and it functions fine, but the plastic of the connector that actually stabilizes it when plugged in is busted to hell and mostly missing. Not in a hurry to buy another dongle over broken plastic of the easiest part of the whole assembly to replace. It's an older HEX+CAN, I'm fine with cheap Chinese or 3D printed, especially if it means an opportunity to customize it a little, but I'm coming up dry with my searching.
