Hi everybody! I'm trying to compile a list of VCDS mods for the new A3 platform, similar to what has been done for other models. This is the first iteration, it would be great if this could be put as a sticky and the first page got updated with new codes or validation of the current ones.

I have not tested any of the codes, I'll be doing that in a couple of weeks with a friend's A3 1.2T.

FULL LIST: (UPDATED FEB 01/2014)

If certain module is locked, you should go to "Security Access" and enter the proper code:

Daaaaaaaaaaang! :cool:

Once I get the FAQ for the forum set up, this will be the first thread to go into it. I don't imagine we'll have a whole lot of development here until we get the US cars on the ground, but you've already saved us a lot of time. Thanks! :thumbup:
 
#7 ·
Thanks!

From what I've read, to activate the alarm beep on lock option on the MMI you have to use VCDS, at least in some A3s as the option is disabled. Also Beep on unlock does not seem to be configurable via MMI so far (I'm sure the option is there but hasn't been found).

If you have access to a non-LED headlamp car, can you poke around a bit and see if there's a way to get the running light diffuser to also serve as the turn signal? I know it's integrated into the diffuser in the LED headlamp, and I know the xenon headlamp has a dedicated filament turn signal, but I'm not willing to completely write off the possibility that Audi puts a dual-color LED setup into the diffuser in all headlamps and just deactivates the turn signal functionality in non-LED cars.

Traditionally, mirror dipping has been dependent on power seats. I hope they can buck that trend and hook it up for the S3, which won't have power seats if the super sport seat option is selected.

A model year or two of the 8P had the ability to adjust weighting of the steering via vagcom. Sounds like the weighting of the 8V is borderline even in Dynamic mode. Odds it'll be adjustable? The Drive Select parameters, are they at the high/low of an unseen range already or is it possible there's adjustable wiggle room with the right coding?
 
#17 ·
I can't speak to coding, but I can say that some review I read recently claimed that weighting is at a BMW level in the most aggressive mode with Drive Select.

Ok, here we go, I had the car today. It was a base 1.2T version, with the only upgrade being Xenon headlights/rear leds and Audi Sound System with subwoofer. Not a great number of modules to play with, and also VCDS 12.12 didn't have most of the labels, specially in [09] Central electronics. Also most of the labels were in german, so it was difficult to understand.

Here's the autoscan (the car had some errors as they tried an external chip):

Some interesting stuff:

1) There appears to be a direct option to enable torque steer compensation (like I did in my GLI) when you have more power (options still not decoded):


2) There's an option to change tire diameter, so you can use wheels with some difference in circumference from stock (options still not decoded):


Not being able to understand module 9, I can't tell if there's an option to enable turn signal in the led strip. Also can't tell from the outside if there's such an option inside.

Most of the options in my list didn't have the related hardware. I did get the needle sweep working, oil temp in the DIS, seatbelt warning off (don't ask).

Laptimer didn't work (because of the monochrome dis I assume), mirror dip didn't work, no fog lights, start&stop... not really a good car to do some research.

I'll be getting to play with a 1.8T in the following weeks so I might get more done on that car.

anyone play with either of these two above?
especially #2?
I need to get in there and change my tire size, but nobody knows anything about decoding this feature.
thx

My friend came back today and we tested some other functions (not enabled from factory):

1) Alarm chirp when locking
2) Alarm chirps when unlocking
3) Menu option to enable disable 1) (no option found for 2)
4) Visual confirmations for comfort closing
5) Mirror dip on reverse (had to configure it also)
6) Confort cycles to 5 blinks

As I told before the car is an 1.2T base A3 with Xenons, so most options are not there. VCDS has no codes for the long coding in [09], and most strings in Adaptation are in German so you need to guess or use google translate.

I've updated the list on the first post.

I have been able to get several items working:
-Lock/unlock chirps
-Mirror dip
-Blinker to 5
-Oil temp

Just curious what this actually means: "Visual confirmations for comfort closing". Where is the "visual confirmation"?

Anyone have luck with enabling ADS via VCDS?

I've just lowered my car and can't seem to readjust the headlights. It keeps asking me for a security code to change the values on the headlight level sensors if I try and change them back to 0.

Any ideas how I can try and realign my headlights to not be aimed down all the way?

My car came from the factory with no start and stop feature. I don't even have a button for it.

Do you think that if I perform the reverse instructions detailed above I can activate it? I wouldn't be able to turn it off from the dash, but that doesn't bother me.

Here's a couple I've found on other forums and tested:
Security Codes
=========
[03] ABS Brakes is 20103
[09] Central Electronics is 31347
[10] Parking aid is 71679
[13] Auto distance regulation is 14117
[44] Steering Assist is 19249
[A5] Frt Sens. Drv. Assist is 20103
============================================

Disable LEDs with Emergency Brake On
[09] Central Electronics -> Adaptation ->
Channel (6) - daytime running lights activated additionally … -> Active
(daytime running lights-Tagfshrlicht-Tagfahrlicht Dauerfahrlicht bei Handbremse abschalten) - Active
=====================================================================

ACC default distance setting in MMI
[13] Auto distance regulation - security 14117
Adaptation: Option For Presetting of time gap
Change 0 to 1
Save
Reboot MMI (Menu + Push Touch Knob + Top Right Corner Button)
you now have the option to change default distance in the Driver Assistance Menu
=======================================================================

Comfort Closing of windows/sunroof
09-Cent. Elect
Security Access – 31347
Adaptation – 10
(2)-Access control 2-Comfort opening – make Active

(7)-Access control 2-Funk Komfort oeffnen – make Active
(6)-Access control 2- Funk Comfort schliessen – make Active
(27)-Access control 2-Menuesteurung Komfortbedienung einstellbar – set to Adjustable

Some of these will be active already on some cars.

I forgot to mention the two I'm looking for :
1. How to disable these amber corner lights that are US only
2. how to get what gear I'm in to display when in D/S mode. It only shows in manual mode here in the US.
 
#28 ·
the US cars won't have the start/stop feature and i don't think setting it up in vag-com will allow it to work, but it would be very cool if it did.

this thread needs to be stickied!!!

I can confirm implementing the comfort closing, passenger-mirror-tilt-on-reverse-gear and 5-blinks-on-turn-signal-tap features in my U.S. 2015 A3 Premium Plus.

Looking for pointers to enable the Audi Drive Select for steering and throttle shift-points, since it should be pure software in the '15 A3.

Thread certainly deserves to be stickied and many thanks to the posters and confirm-posters so far!
