Yep, I have.
It gives a little bit of tyre slip if you take off quickly in a situation where you might normally lose traction - in the wet for example.
Not enough slip to really to light up the tyres, or anything silly like that. It feels like it delays the traction control at low speeds.

Are these tweaks all for Petrol only,
or also possible on TDI Tiggys?

I regularly pull out of a steep driveway into traffic. I found the car would bog down in wet weather, this seems to reduce that. I might get one wheel spinning a few quick revolutions as I crest the drive from a standstill and the car keeps steady power to the road and constant velocity. Maybe a placebo effect but I’ve had the setting on about 2 years and haven’t felt any need to change it back.
I agree with spacemannz.
Before when turning onto a main road from a small side street the engine would seem to bog down which was exacerbated by the poor low speed throttle response.
This VCDS tweak just ensures there is cleaner progress. I have not noticed adverse tyre wear since activating the setting 2yrs ago and neither have I wanted to turn it back to stock.

Is anyone else with OBDeleven V1 dongle having issues with their app? I couldn't update it in my tablet so uninstalled it. Now I'm unable to reinstall it. The original download link from a few years back does not work...
I'm using an android tablet with version 5.0.1 so meets the minumum standard of Android 5.0
