1. 08 Auto HVAC
2. Long coding
3. Byte 4
4. Bit 4-5 use drop down box and select “10 Recirculation Air settings (after ignition cycle) stored

For those of you with towbars installed, do you have the following in your Central Infotainment Display?
If you go to Menu --> Vehicle --> Settings --> Drivers Assistance: Do you have trailer recognition sub-menu?

(YouTube)

It wasn't there originally for me but I coded it in the Trailer Module:







There are a few other trailer related settings I was going to code but didn't want to do too much before actually trying out something on the towbar. I just want to know if Trailer Assist where you use the mirror adjuster can be used to place the trailer whilst reversing.
Will eventually get more time to find out the answer if someone else hasn't already beaten me to it.

Yep I have it. I can't wait to try it though. See how good it is

Just interested in knowing a few things about your vehicle.
What are the specs of your vehicle? Trim level and model year?
What towbar do you have? VW Genuine or Westfalia or other?

i have a 2017 facelift golf with trailer assist factory fitted, if that's any help (I can look at the codings Monday (uk time) if that's any help)

Hi Jap

Please could you post your codings & adaptation channels so I can compare. I followed these instructions on my MY17 Tiguan R-Line:

Activate Trailer Assist - VCDSSchweiz

I had the genuine trailer electrics installed by dealer, so car knows when trailer plugged in, but Trailer Assist never worked. After altering the above coding & adaptations, I now get a message that Trailer Assist is available and to press the Park Assist button when the car is in reverse - once I do that, a picture flashes up showing how to control via the side mirror selector/adjuster, but then an error message comes up to say take control of the steering wheel as Trailer Assist is not available due to the reversing camera being obscured.
I have no idea why this error occurs, as the camera is clean, I have removed the jockey wheel & re-routed the trailer plug out of view in-case it is getting confused.

I did have a problem with the final adaptation change, as Klemme 15 does not appear in the drop down list??

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
