VCDS Tweaks

Let me check this tonight on VCDS. I want this one bad Thanks to both of you for trying to help Don and Jap.

Would it be in German?
Röhrenversion

That's the problem. With OBDeleven I guess you have this "tube version" option, but if you are using VCDS like me and a few others there is no "tube version" under adaptation. We only see "display depiction" which does not help to get the R clocks.

Tube Version shows in the latest Beta of VCDS.

nope about Röhrenversion, I am using vcds 17.8.0. I will try to check with never version.

Hi Peps New Arteon owner interested in turn on some of German model features which are locked out. Happy to shout ya a carton of choice here on the Gold Coast.

So I wanted to enable the RGB colour change option for the instrument colours as per post 248 on this page
Mk2 Tiguan VCDS Tweaks

I followed the directions and I seem to only get 1 choice. I can also only select All Areas the Footwell or the Doors. All of the RGB settings are defined and the directions have been followed exactly.




Has anyone had any luck getting it to work with their Passat?

Hi Wynnston

Cold Boot MIB Unit
Hold down left button for 10 seconds (or so)
Wait for restart


Reset Background Lighting Setting in MIB
with MIB on, goto the below;
Menu > Vehicle > Settings > Factory Reset > Background Lighting > Reset

Then go into the Background Lighting settings, and the 10 colours you chose should be there.


This worked on mine

Hope this helps

Awesome!!! That did the trick. Now I'll set it to the funky display depiction 3 and it will look sweet as

Thank you for your assistance!

Once my OBD11 arrives next week looking at turn on some of the self drive functions which are on the European Arteon. Such as fully automated adaptive cruise control, which automatically slows the car down according to the road signs and gps data eg bends etc. They are already recalling my car because the self driving function which pulls it over to the side of the road was turned off accidentally for our market. Any passat b8 out there interested to see if you can wake up this stuff in your cars ?

Yes, of course. Will attend carefully, since the Arteon features seem very interesting. Good luck and happy New Year!
