I appreciate this is a Newbie question ... but how do you access Vagcom codes ... do you special equipment? If so who does it in Brisbane?

ZMan if your car is only a week old like mine you should be able to enable traffic without VCDS. There is a video in the SD card thread - it's two settings in the radio menu which you change and voila!

This is absolutely right! I just went to the car and check again, and what you need to do is go to Radio > Setup > Advanced Setup and turn on RDS, which will then allow you the check the Traffic Data box. Once that's done, press the Traffic button and voila! You now have traffic information.

Interweb = 1
VWA Dealers = 0

Wow thanks anduril. That worked a treat and I got traffic info working.

Ross-Tech provides a hardware+software interface for VW cars, that allows you to interface with the car's systems and apply changes to some settings - as a dealer would.

See this thread for a list of people with the interface who can help you.

Just checked the tracker apparently mine arrived on the Carmen in Melbourne and was 'released' yesterday. So I guess it's on a truck to Brisbane now.

Received my 90 tsi comfortline dsg and are loving it.So glade i got the assistance pack with the radar cruise .Drove to my local chinese restaurant and used the cruise control most of the way. It follows cars at a set distance and even brakes and stops when car stopped at traffic lights in front of me . Then a car stopped to turn right and my car slowed and i moved to left and my car accelerated and i passed and moved back to middle .Very happy with all the features .
