this is great news. both you and djalix will be helping out so many people with this.I'm in North London most days, and have ordered a car with mag ride. Happy to drop by and let you play once I get it. It'll be a facelift model though...

I contacted the SRTCan makers and they confirmed that the activation of ADS on audi a3 8v not working. Finally the only option for A3 8V is the official activation by the dealer.I have found some update about SRT CAN connect.
The cable is a simple cable EL327 USB / RS232. In the specifications is required to read and write both of OBD2 CAN-BUS protocol. To use this cable have to purchase credits and therefore you can connect to their server to perform the coding. Connecting to the server is done through an application after you have logged in with the login that you get after you have purchase credits.
This is what is described on their Russian website :
1000 credits 20 EUR
3000 credits 55 EUR
5000 credits 90 EUR
10000 credits 170 EUR
For activation of ADS you need 2000 credits.
On a Italian site is this confirmed that it works for activation of ADS on a Q3 with MMI RMC.
Great! When is your car due?I'm in North London most days, and have ordered a car with mag ride. Happy to drop by and let you play once I get it. It'll be a facelift model though...
Your guess is as good as mine! My order placed in February has been cancelled by the dealer, and with facelift announcement the order book was closed. New orders don't open until May. So I'm effectively back at square one.Great! When is your car due?

Very useful indeed. I still cannot understand why Audi would not have this enabled from the factory (like lesser cars have)Glad to help Forbzeeee - good to hear you got it working I find that mod particularly useful.
Cannot be done. Radio / Screen is either on and up or off and down.also can you figure out the pop up screen code? a lot of us would like to adjust the screen so it stays close every time we start up the car. I personally don't mind the radio staying on but prefer to have the screen stay closed till I press the button to open it up.
Radio / MMI = 5Fdoes the radio module show up in the vcds selection?
20103, If requiredis there a code needed for it?
I don't know the answer I'm afraid but the joy of VCDS is that you can try it, if nothing changes then just undo it?
Have had issues when trying to return / revert some changes in the past but updates to VCDS normally resolve this, eg:
v14.x (I believe) used to activate No Voltage Display and after testing could not change it back, Request Out Of Range. Had to wait for v15 before being able to revert the change.
Never had a problem changing back myself and have used VCDS many years and on all sorts of VAG vehicles.
This change produced no results that I could see / find on my car, hence why I wanted to revert, and don't believe it's related to Battery Level to be honest as there is a dedicated adaptation for that which I am still trying to work out the prerequisites for.Did that change actually work to display battery state of charge in the cluster? I would really like to have that.
How NOT to mess up with VCDS http://www.vwaudiforum.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=170072
A little bit of coding done on my A3 Sline last night. I did the alternating indicator mod, acoustic lock/unlock, added the lap timer function to my dashboard and also changed my start up screen!
What changes did you do so this happened. I like it
Is that legal?
Something interesting to note in the new 16.5.0 Beta release notes
- Support for Six-Digit security access codes
Only a million possible combinations, assuming they're using base-10. How long would that take to crack?Something interesting to note in the new 16.5.0 Beta release notes
- Support for Six-Digit security access codes
Easier / less time to work out 5 digit codes. A complete 6 digit code range will prolly take up to 8 hours to scanI take it that's a bad thing ?? Uh oh !
Well... after approx four hours of total travel time and approx 6 hours of security access code scanning (99999 number combinations) I now have all the codes for 14 - Susp. Elect. within the 5 digit range. Scanning of the 6 digit range is prohibitive at the moment due to the time it would take to complete but if the 5 digit codes I have found do not produce the desired results then I will revisit this project and try to work something out.
A HUGE thank you goes out to jungle650 for not only welcoming me in to his garage and allowing me access to his very well spec'd S3... but for all the great conversation as well. He is truly a top bloke!
So what did I find? As with the 03 - ABS there is a General "Control Module" Security Access Code and then Adaptation Channel Code. Code... Singular?! Yes, but I am not surprised by this given the number of available Adaptation Channels and the number of useful channels (bold):
*2013/14/15 Vehicles all contain the same hardware and software.

I had no time to complete any testing so any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Have fun!
