So, apparently Vag Can Pro can enable the 'green' menu in the A3 8V.
VCDS apparently cannot.
Does anyone know why this is? It seems like we should be able to change the same codes in VCDS to achieve the same result. Is it a matter of not knowing the security code?
These are the instructions to enable the menu in VCP (translated from German):
Connect control unit 5F and enter the Engineering Mode
STG 5F -> Personalization -> Developers messages -> Active
STG 5F -> Personalization -> STG reset
The Hidden menu can be accessed via the shortcut key LEFT BACK and lower key. To exit, press MENU.
