Anyone help with VCDS coding to remove the annoying warning when the ignition is on and you open the door? I'm running an S3 8P 2011 plate.

Like to get the seatbelt chime out too.
 
Unsure about the ignition warning

however i managed to remove my seatbelt chime and warning

Taken from the Ross-Tech site:

[17] - Instrument Cluster
Seatbelt Chime May remove the light as well

  • Found in [Coding - 07].
Unlike the 09 and 46 modules the Instrument Cluster uses conventional Short coding. The coding is the sum of numbers that need added or subtracted from the proper position(s).

Look at the fourth digit in the coding ( xxx?x ). Use the values for the desired option and put it in the fourth digit location to get the new coding.

The coding chart will appear in a pop-up balloon while connected to the vehicle. The actual coding may vary for some modules however this is a example from a 2010 US market A3:

0 = No Seat Belt Warning
6 = USA and Canada NAR-NEW (including passenger - permanent visual warning and acoustic warning active every 30 seconds)

So, if your stock Soft Coding is 0016058 and you want to remove the seatbelt chime, put in a new value of 0010058 .
