    kamold: forgive my interference and I most certainly don't profess to be an expert on the Passat, but I note that Wynnston's details indicates that his Passat is a 2017 build.

    On the other MQB platform vehicle with which I am more familiar (Golf mk7), the boffins @ VW made substantial changes to the database architecture of the BCM on MY17 cars. Importantly for Wynnston's observations, the latest MY17 BCMs on the Golf do not report any code-string values. What has happened in the latest generation BCMs, is that the software switches that were in Byte/Bits are now in the device's adaptation channels.

    Is this a possible explanation for this problem? Has anyone made an admap of these newer BCM on the Passat and checked if the old code string switches appear in the adaptation channel descriptors (likely in German)?

    Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is on-line, in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the expertise of the wider forum! Thank you.
