shark_90 Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I'm sure an RS4 one is different as the buttons on the steering wheel are different and the wiper stalk doesn't have buttons on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Version4 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Ok, I'm still having problems Vagging into my instrument cluster module. (see my previous post in last page) Has anyone installed the Washer Level Sensor before adding the trip computer coding to the car? All the posts I see, the coding is done before installing the washer sensor. I installed the sensor and now I can't get into the module so here is what my friend thinks: the module is getting data it doesn't recognize so it is getting confused by it and doesn't know what to do with it. So it is kicking us out of there before we can enable the trip computer functionality. Is this possible? I will try to remove the ground connection from the sensor tomorrow to see if it will let me in to code and then connect it again. If anyone has any ideas they are more than welcome.

shark_90 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 <Stuff> Is this possible? No. There's no "data" it's just a simple ground. If you have communication errors then you have a K-Line problem in the car. Do you have an aftermarket radio? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Hi,I've just purchased a 2005 A4 S-Line 2.0 TDI (no MFSW) and it doesn't have much in the way of extras. I'm specifically after cruise control and wouldn't mind a trip computer with MPG, average speed, etc (currently just shows radio info and distance to empty). I've found a few useful posts so know it can be done, but most of the posts were old and not sure if the members who could help out (on the coding side) are still around. Anyway, I'm not exactly sure what need so could someone confirm and perhaps let me know where I can get the parts, if not from the dealer. For Cruise Control, I'm assuming I just need: 1.control stalk 2.lower cowling 3.someone who can recode the ECU Does anyone know how much Audi will charge for this? For the trip computer, does the whole cluster need changing? or will I just need a wiper stalk with the buttons on the end? Any ideas on cost for this would be really useful. Thanks! Ben If you don't have a multi function wheel then you'll need to change the steering wheel control module too which isn't cheap. Audi would charge a fortune, no idea how much. That's if they'd even bother. For DIS the cluster does not need changing. Just the stalk and one wire to the instrument cluster. If you wanted this doing or would like a quote, please give me a call or send me an email - you can find the details on Shark Performance - Volkswagen Audi Seat and Skoda Tuning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Version4 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 No, my nav system is an RNS-E. I unplugged the ground in the washer sensor and was then able to get into the cluster with no problems. I don't know what it was, but the sensor was fking it up. Now she's all coded and good to go. Thanks for the help shark. Though it is weird how that happened.... LJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4_marv Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 I've been informed by my friendly Audi parts man that the SCM currently in my car is a 8E0 953 549 N, which from reading previous posts makes me believe that it should be compatible with cruise... can anyone confirm? Is it likely that their computer may be wrong? I'm due in for some minor work next week, so I'll get them to check the part number when the car's plugged in if I remember, just to make sure. Also, I was told that the cruise stalk part number that I'd given him (from a previous post in this thread) might be wrong, as it began with 4E0, rather than 8E0. Is this true? The 8E0 item cost about £8 more IIRC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 4E0 is a crossover part as the same stalk is used in other application now. If you have an N module you'll be OK but if he's determined that by just entering the VIN then you do need to check with the computer to be sure as the parts system isn't often right.

S4_marv Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Thanks for the ongoing wisdom Shark. So presumably the 4E0 and the 8E0 will both work? Strange that they charge £8 more for the 8E0! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 To be honest I didn't even think the 8E0 part number still existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4_marv Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I had the car in at the dealers today for some minor work, and asked them to check the part no. of the SCM while it was in. They said that they tried, but that they were unable to check the part number, as apparently on their system you have to actually attempt to change a setting in order to get the part number... Doesn't sound totally right to me, but can anyone confirm/deny this? Anyway, the parts guy, who's been nothing but helpful, got in touch with Audi Technical HQ and they came back and assured him that I have the correct module for cruise. So fingers crossed when I come to actually order & fit the parts I don't find out that I need a new SCM!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vlaudix Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 I installed used, (but 100% working) steering wheel model N-version with CC stalk to Audi A4 B6 2003 TDI. I coded a lot of times according the instruction described in this thread (I found similar instructions on another forums too, even in Spanish), but…. CC doesn’t work. I haven’t got any errors, just can’t to proceed the adaptation of channel 081 for VIN learning. PIN code is requested every time. Can I setup my VIN to this channel 081 with Vag-Com 805 or have I go to some authorized workshop, who is using VAS5xxx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garythompson Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi guys hope you can help ,I have just fitted the cruise stalk and lower shroud to my 2005 sline 2.0 tdi i already have dis as an option. I have come across a problem when trying to code the steering wheel control module with vag com. I believe this is due to me having a S module fitted(is this correct) if so what model should i be looking for to fit to a B7 and where is the best place to get hold of one of these? please dont say audi stealer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4_marv Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Shark_90's one of the experts on this, and from this quote in an earlier post, it sounds like the S module will not work. ...I'm sure you need N, P, R or Q. Now and again the modules appear on ebay, either on their own, or as part of a full steering column for sale, the rest of which you could then sell on afterwards. It's always worth asking the seller what the part number is of the module they're selling. Local breakers/salvage yards may often have them in, or websites like breakeryard.com + others will take a description/part number of what you want, and a load of national breakers will then email you with quotes. Otherwise, they're circa £100 from the stealers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark_90 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 They're more than that - £116+vat. The S module is not cruise capable hence your problem Gary. You need to replace the module. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garythompson Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 yeah thanks guys, ill have to get on the look out , as it turns out i just missed out on a "q" on ebay complete with stalks that went for £55 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S4_marv Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 Unlucky, that's a good price. When I was looking a full set like that would go for nearly double that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comicguy Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Hello all! I'm new to this forum and bought my first Audi about a month ago. I have cruise control so I guess the only thing I have to do to get the full trip computer is to wiper lever and recode with the Vag-Com that I have. However after reading through the whole thread I am still unsure if I need to remove the wheel and which setting to recode. I have just managed to get my retrofit RNS-E to show navi info in the DIS, but I wonder if its possible to recode to see scrolling text of mp3 names in the DIS.

shark_90 Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Welcome to TSN Yes you do need to remove the wheel. You need to change the adaptation value in channel 19 of your instrument cluster (17) to x10xx from memory. As far as I know there is no way to make the track names scroll on the DIS with tracks played from the RNS-E. The only equipment I know that does that is the Dension Gateway 100/300 with an iPod or USB hard disc/pen drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolDave Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 I have just managed to get my retrofit RNS-E to show navi info in the DIS, but I wonder if its possible to recode to see scrolling text of mp3 names in the DIS. It isn't - in their "infinite wisdom" Audi chose not to scroll the track names. Hence why I use playlists so that I can choose what the 8 characters are, and make them more meaningful than just the first 8 characters of the filename.

chrisash32 Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Shark, I have just purchased a 2004 A4 1.9 TDi Sport and i am after the DIS and Cruise? How much would you charge for this? I have vag-com so should be able to get any info you would need first. Cheers! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
