Do you need this specific software, or can the Distance to Empty be done with VAG.COM?

I will be ordering one over the weekend.
Hopefully it doesn't take too long to come from the UK.

Bit confused by some of the comments here?
Did the NZ R32's not come with cruise?
And why does the cruise light not light up when you activate your cruise control? is that something common with the GTIs and other Mk4 Golfs because I get a light on the dash when I enable my cruise control.
For me the only real useful feature is the enable distance to empty in the trip computer.

Nice find! Ill have to look into this i rection. I bought the auto window up/sunroof close on lock module from ebay a few months back. Cost me $40 with delivery. Its a use once only module and plugs straight into your Vagcom plug. Takes about a minute to complete. Best wank option ive ever bought!

hey Nashan, where off ebay did you get this? what did you search for? Im having trouble finding it. All got is a wiring kit for cars that dont have an auto option

To enable DTE I assume you use the cable and the software on a laptop to make the changes. Are the changes enabled via a menu or are there instructions on what values to program into the Prom, or do you need to know assembler? BTW, where is the port located to plug the USB cable into, under the dash?

Thanks for posting this!
