hey
do you have the steering column control module (steering ECU).
only interested if it is the 'R' version of the part 8E0 953 549 R.
or, if the car has a multi-function wheel and cruise control it should be fine.
let me know if and how much etc!
thanks
pdt.
Okay, you will need to use the software to access the control module.
When you do, you get a screen up and it will display the coding number - should look like '06651' or similar.
You then click on 'change coding' and then where the old number/code is displayed, input the new number, as per...
Hi
The best way to start to get an answer with this is to provide the value for the current coding.
Assuming without it though, you need to +32 to the value to enable the 10mph lock and an additional +1024 for the chirp.
So..
existing value + 32 + 1024 = new value
Use VCDS to change the...
Hi all
apparently this is quite common.
The contacts in the bumper need to be cleared of moisture.
Pull them out, clean the contacts for the wiring and apply some grease...
Does the trick...
(although from memory is a bumper off job)

hey rob
with these sort of things, I would not trust any of the dodgy stuff off eBay.
I bought my cable from NHN recently - opened the box, downloaded the software and was up and running in minutes -- no fecking about with anything.
I even have it running on Mac OSX!
Spend the money - it...
Thanks...
I have ETKA, but must be missing something (user error!) to work out dependency and functions of individual parts etc in the program...
oh to be a newbie...
Hi all
I finally got to play with VCDS and my B7 S4 today!
(thanks NHN!!)
I did an autoscan to check out the part number of the steering control module.
I have 8E0 953 549 S in the car.
Can this handle cruise control coding?
Or, am I up for a new 'R' model one?
If the latter -...
Hi all
I am thinking about doing a retrofit upgrade from non MFSW to MFSW and have a wheel that has the paddles on it...
Does anyone know if you can remove the shift paddles from the 3-spoke MFSW on a B7?
*my S4 is manual hence why i don't want the paddles!*
Cheers

Thanks Cockney Boy...
Beer tokens indeed! I have some of those available and a very nice place to cash them in nearby!
I am in West London (Hammersmith).
I am also in the process of accumulating (as my wife calls it!) all the bits to do the cruise control and the RNS-E (single to double DIN...
Hi Dazmo
Yep - did it all today.
My S4 takes 9 litres of oil!!
The dealer wanted £136 for the oil. I bought it myself for about £80. I also bought the oil filter and pollen filter and did the same thing!
worked a treat... saved quite a bit for essentially exactly the same thing! (and I got...
hi all
i am thinking about changing my 3-spoke wheel to a MSFW 3-spoke wheel.
Has anyone done it and is it actually do-able?
I did search, but couldn't find much on the topic, only people going from B6 to B7 steering wheels.
Are there part issues? I have heard all sorts of...
