A guide to enable EU specific features for AU Spec Tiguans

[Gladbach]

Interesting, I picked up mine on 1 May and no adaptive lane guidance :/

It's easy to turn on with OBDEleven or VCDS. I've activated it, but to be honest, I don't really see the need for it. The standard lane assist is good as a safety system to keep you from drifting out of the lane, but centering in the lane, while sounding cool, doesn't actually do much for you. It's good as a novelty, but you can't really rely on it as a semi-autonomous driving function as it often doesn't pick up the lane markings and therefore de-activates. The little lane assist icon changes from green to orange but it's easy to not realise it's deactivated until you start drifting out of the lane, look down and see that it's orange.

I've turned if off for now (via the discover pro menu). I might play with it again soon.

I guess I'm just trying to re-assure you that you're not missing out on much.

I live south east of melbourne, how can i get mine coded so i can get the lane departure warning working. I have adaptive cruise and the light in the mirror when there is a car next to me, but i want to activate the one where if you cross the lane it warns your that u are crossing the lanes, I think the steering is suppose to vibrate as well

Isn't that a standard feature? The Tiguan i test drove a month ago had it on as i tested it to see how annoying it is in comparison to the Subaru system. Neither like the yellow lines on the tulla freeway at the moment hahaha.

Thanks for reply. I've already ordered my OBDeleven and it should be arriving today. I'll activate it and try it on Saturday from Sydney to Newcastle and back. Lines are generally better and darker on freeways so it may work better, I'll see how it goes.

P.S. yes, I don't pick up the colour change of that icon in day to day traffic either but on freeways and speed set at 110km/hr I'm hoping it will never turn orange.

The steering does not really vibrate but you will feel quite a fair amount of resistance. The light in the mirror flashes and the steering wheel stiffens up.

It will only trigger above 65 km/h and needs to detect the lane markings for it to work. The lane assistance symbol should be green to indicate that it is triggered (it is orange if it is not triggered) and you should also see that it has detected the lane markings (in white). Note if you have your turn signals active it will inactivate lane assistance.

Hey Sharp, would you mind telling me where you ordered it from and the cost please? Also does it now have a menu system specific for the gen 2 Tiguan? Im an absolute gumby and don't want to muck around with coding,,, cheers Gary

Paid ~$100 for the pro version with express delivery. Paid on Monday received on Tuesday. I'm a newbie too but followed the instructions I found on forums and it worked!

Can OBDeleven be used to disable the engine stop/start function?

Sure can!
