Traffic Jam Assist

[Jap]

There have been two cars in NZ that have had TJA enabled by the dealer, no one else seems interested in following up in NZ which puzzles me. Can ayone from NZ shed some light on why they haven't had TJA activated?

I drove a brand new Adventurer today to see if TJA is or isn't enabled and I came away puzzled to say the least. ACC is certainly active down to stop and when the car in front moved away the motor restarted but the vehicle did no move off without me pressing the resume button. I could not test it extensively in heavy traffic as this was at a rural dealer and they don't have traffic jams in their town. The three second delay was also not present or maybe it was but the motor restarted after more than three seconds stationary. As for self steering we were not in an area where I couldn't positively say it was working but it seemed to be. When the button on the end of the blinker stalk was pressed ALG did not appear in that list but I don't know whether it should have or not.

Ok the acc works down to 0 mph, and when stopped for 3 seconds it will not move off on its own, but if the car in front moves the stop start starts the car but does not move off, that's how the ACC works, this is not TJA

Also when you press the stalk you do not get ALG on the list, only lane assist, the ALG is pre selected in the mib as an option to work alongside lane assist

Hope this helps

Hi Adz11
My gut feel is still negative as I think you need additional modules in the electronic control box. Better minds on this forum can provide more specific info.

Not so sure about that as the members from NZ who had it added just had the standard lane assist, front assist, side assist, rear assist and ACC,
It looks like one of the modules firmware was updated and some options in the long coding were changed

OK, stating the obvious the Adventure did not have TJA activated which is what VWA has said, the Tiguan does not have it but then we get conflicting advice from at least one new owner. Having just re-read the thread the post confirming TJA in a car has been removed, I can see a quote from it but not the original post.

In Australia ACC was rolled into AID and not available separately.

Hi mate, having spent most of the arvo in the car, I can confirm that it definitely has TJA - as per the manual, there is no option to 'enable/disable', it is simply active when Lane Assist (with ALG) and ACC are operating on the highway and traffic drops below 65km/h... Works perfectly too, brakes and steers to a stop & goes again too!... The new media screen is awesome too - almost the size of an iPad in the dash!

Very happy with the car and worth the wait!

Hi folks. I got the backup of my ACC module done will email those who request it. I have discovered an error in OBDEleven though. When I access long coding on the ACC module and try and change anything I get an “Something went wrong. Try again” error. Going into manual long coding allows me to change options but most of the descriptions are missing ie byte 7 shows only “...”. Only a few of the options in the long coding helper shows up in manual long coding. I am working with OBDEleven on this.

This is in the manual of my18 Tiguan

Manuals are useless, they are not country specific and list every feature under the sun. My manual (MY17) has TJA too.

Oh ok. Anyway TJA has been confirmed by my friend who works for Vw dealership, and by a forum member who picked his my18 up yesterday.
