Thanks for confirming will book some time w my dealer. Given my MIB2 firmware is 'cracked' is there anything I should ask them to do while my car's in? My understanding is the feature/swap codes haven't been officially added to my car so if they do anything with the MIB2 I'll be worse off, but...

Hi, I have a 2015 S3 and have successfully completed the MIB2 retrofit. This led to some of my steering wheel buttons no longer working so I fit an FL steering wheel and needed to update the gw firmware to allow the new buttons to work. Unfortunately flashing to the 'AM' firmware resulted in CP...

Hi Sandra - could you enable me as well please? Tia

Experiencing the same issue here - I'd describe it as a continuous popping/rumble, and once the amp/sub gets stuck in this mode it doesn't easily "snap out" of it. My 12V trigger currently is the power wire for the rear camera module - seems like this powers the amp on before the MMI turns on...

Possible to do this via ODIS or VCDS? I've just installed an aftermarket sub/amp and looking to enable the knob. Thanks!

If used clusters don't get approved for retrofit by vw anymore, how come prices are still high? Clusters in US are USD 700+

Sorry don't have a good source - I used one from this thread - https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/index.php?threads/gateway-firmware-update.405797/#post-7876547 but unfortunately it activated CP on my gateway for some reason so I'd seek out another. probably something to do with my car/odis and not...

flash to latest GW firmware (AM)

Nice - please let me know if you know of someone who can do the coding remotely as I'm in the US and have struggled to find someone to help. Thanks

Huh, I'm waiting for my set of buttons for an identical swap, hope they work for me. What gateway do you have? If not high you'll need to replace that I believe.

I heard it is still possible, you being in the UK hit up DJ Alix/VagCarCoding.co.uk and he can help you out. Just need someone w ODIS to code your immo and remove CP from the cluster. The request goes up to VW to approve which can take a bit of time. Also need to roll up (can only roll up, not...

Ok looks like I need Left and Right switches 81A951523A What's interesting is I swapped the left 81A951523 (these are listed as w/o tiptronic, so prob not meant for paddles) to the right 8W0951523F (VC) and the left paddle works. So for completeness sake, it may be possible that 81A951523 Left...

gah I was hoping you wouldn't say that! guess I'm on the hunt for a set of buttons or complete steering wheel. Maybe VC retrofit ends up being path of least resistance if I can't find a cheap set of buttons :)

Also wondering if there’s an issue with the buttons or related wiring. I started with a complete VC steering wheel and only replaced the left button pod. White harness connecting the 2 pods (and right pod with the clock spring connector) stayed unchanged - maybe both pods and white cable need to...

Hi there - I retrofitted MIB2 and then the FL steering wheel onto my PFL S3 and unsurprisingly the view button didn’t work. Purchased the correct menu/back buttons as I don’t plan on retrofitting VC and those also didn’t work. So I just flashed AM fw and got CP active on the gateway and still no...
