VCDS (VAG-COM) codes and programmable options for Golf Mk7

[Jazrod]

Thanks, Don.

I will do the tweak when I get my car back. VW have reset everything and I need to redo every single one now -_- haha.

Just picked up my new MkVII GTI, love the car, can't wait till I finish running it in

Would be great to hear from anybody with VCDS in Melbourne area (pref. nth or western suburbs but happy to travel further) who can do a few tweaks for me such as seatbelt warning disable, TMC enable, alarm chirp enable & any others you might recommend .... of course more than happy to pay the going rate, beer/cider 6-pack whatever

Very handy feature on my old MkV Golf was windows up/down via remote fob. Because I bought the car 2nd hand and it had the feature I assumed it was a factory default but now I know it's not.

It'll do it with any tweaking. Just hold down the unlock button on the key fob for around 5 secs, and hey presto, windows go down!

I thought it was a factory feature...

Have you done the all the way down and all the way up thing on each window?

Ignore me, I might be going senile

Well that was strange. I have it working now but I needed to enable it as per page 73 of the manual ... I don't remember disabling it but then again I am getting old

Don't worry about me Eaglehawk, I might be going senile

Anyway I'd still like to do a few other tweaks (eg. disable seat belt warning, enable TMC, enable alarm chirp) so as per a few posts up, if you're in Melbourne with VCDS and wouldn't mind helping, would be great to hear from you

I'll PM you my address so you can send me that six-pack

Pepita: hi and congratulations on your new car - Good choice!

Are you sure that you don't already have TMC enabled? I had understood from others here that our very good friends at VW Australia had decided to implement this facility in later model mk7s (i.e. beyond the my 13 model and early release my14 models). Have you tried enabling TP and RDS in your radio set-up menu first. Then wait a while and then press the "Traffic" button.

I'd love to but you didn't tell me an option needed to be enabled in one of the menus of the car

I too have activated everything on my MY15 GTI, delivered late August this year. Unfortunately, the traffic warnings do not work without a recode of some sort. The dealer confirmed to me that VW Australia say that the traffic warnings are not enabled in Australia. Frustrating....
