Adaptive Lane Guidance

[Jap]

Hmm, I may have gone into the coding for the front assist module and changed something to get the different options in the menu with obdeleven

Thought I had TJA, but didn't.

The below was just the Passat discussion

VCDS/OBDEleven enable traffic jam assist?

Was I bit confusing

[Ozsko]

I have an MY18 206 wagon, below 65km the lane guidance stops working. ACC will operate down to 30km/h and stop-start as long as I'm only stopped for a few seconds (approx 15).

Doesn't appear TJA is in the MY18 206's.

OP:- The lane assist should keep the car in the centre of the lane. If yours is roaming side to side, sounds like it's a trip to the dealership to get it fixed/reset.

This confuses people, LANE ASSIST is only a warning that the car is getting too close to the lane boundaries, ACTIVE LANE GUIDANCE sometimes called DYNAMIC LANE GUIDANCE actively keeps the car between the lane boundaries. LANE ASSIST causes the car to ping pong between the lines if the driver does not take over control. TJA cannot be had without ALG but can be activated with VCDS, TJA cannot be activated by VCDS alone.

Someone needs to do a video of this as every video now up on YT is wrong, misleading or deficient in explanation.

They've already concluded as NO TJA IN AUSTRALIA FOR PASSAT.

What will a video do?

Deficient in explanation and understanding

I was not aware that Passats did not have TJA in the current production, Tiguans, Golfs, Skodas etc have it. A video that had all the information surrounding TJA properly explained and shown would at least remove some of the questions surrounding it. Even if Passats do not have TJA activated it can be done by coding in Australia.

TJA doing it's thing...

How did you get the speed limit in the dash?

This isn't quite how it's working in my car, with Lane Keeping Assist on the car will self steer away from the lane boundaries when it gets to close i.e. it's not just a warning. There's also the Lane Departure warning where the steering wheel vibrates.

With Adaptive Lane Guidance (that's what it's called in the manual and menu's) the car steers itself constantly, ALG is enabled on MY18 Passats from factory. I find the constant steering annoying, if you are trying to give a semi a wide berth the car fights you for example. The same with trying to leave a bigger gap for a motorcycle approaching from behind.

I've tested this further and decided it only weaves on some roads, single lane it seems ok but on a multi lane like the Bruce Highway leaving Brisbane it does weave if left to it's own devices although it's very gentle and a passenger probably wouldn't even notice.

Cheers,

Jap is UK based but it can be enabled here via OBDeleven or VCDS.
