I just picked up a TDI for my wife. Nice car.

I have a VAG-COM already for my Audi, but there are NO long coding helpers with the Ross Tech software yet.

Has anyone disabled the seatbelt chime on the 2011 yet?

Thanks,

Sam

There sure is long coding helpers on the latest version of VCDS. Are you using an actual Ross Tech Cable?

Yes - I bought the cable from Ross Tech 2 years ago for my Audi. I've used it many times, including having to use to change brake pads when I go to the track. I've also used it on a GF's Passat to disable the seatbelt chime and enable remote window/sunroof operation.

On the Touareg (2011) there are none of the pre-labeled bit changes (tick boxes), and I don't see an obvious way to change anything without a long serires of trial-and-error.

I have version 10.6, the lastest version of the software.

Anyone have Vag-Com luck with the 2011 model?

Hello from snowy Russia!

I own 2011 TReg (new one, also called NF or 7P), and have found some tricks with VAGCOM. You will need the latest 10.6.3 version, as it has more labels and descriptions.

1. Module 17 (instruments), 10-Adaptation, and than choose Seatbelt Chime from drop-down menu. You may set it to disabled if you dont need those sound

2. You may also add oil temperature to dashboard by selecting (in the same drop-down menu)
configuration of driver information system - oil temperature - active

3. RNS-850 is actually the same is Audi MMI 3G. So you may use all codes for it, like video in motion
VIM login-code generator for MMI 3G

or enable green (hidden) menu
Module 5F, Adaptation – 10, channel 6, set 1 instead of 0. then press SETUP + CAR for several seconds.

You may even enable Offroad navigation mode on a car without TerrainTech by setting diagnose - settings - offroad navi to 1/2 - enabled in that hidden menu. Also there's some wifi network availible in RNS-850, but I haven't found how to use it.

At the moment I'm trying to send as much as possible scans of different Tregs to Ross-Tech, as it would help to improve label-files in next versions. Please do the same with your Tregs. I believe, there is much more possibilities to enable, like enabling Dynamic Light Assist or Proactive occupant protection system (seems like these are software options)

Have fun!

Thanks for the help. I don't think I looked under the 10-Adaptation menu, so I'll give it a shot.

Also will try to send maps to Ross-Tech

The Deactivation should be done via Coding, feel free to send me your Auto-Scan and maps via Email and we should be able to get you some more details on this topic.

BTW: I'd suggest you use the new Beta version for this purpose.

Ross-Tech: VAG-COM: Current Beta

It's a feature alot of Audi's have, Google it. It allows you to view/reset DTC's, turn on hidden things such as offroad menu's, access hidden things such as WIFI in the RNS 850. Don't ask me what the wifi does or how it works i'm still learning, but there are tons of things this thing can do that we can't understand just yet. Oh you can access Nav version numbers and such, it's basically a menu giving you access to some of the most basic things the car has and does.

I tried these suggestions - the green menu worked, but I was not able to see the oil temp anywhere. During the Vag-Com session, when I would try to toggle the value for "configuration of driver information system - oil temperature" to active, I would receive a message stating that the value was out of range. Any clues/suggestions about that?

I'm experiencing the same issues as morecarl.

2. When changing the oil temp to active I receive the same out of range message

3. When trying to get the video in motion function to work, I get to the end and need to reboot the MMI. I can't figure what the "3 - top right" button is on the 2011 Touareg. There are no buttons around the control key.

4. Green menu - I have been able to change channel 6 to 1. But when I press SETUP + CAR nothing happens. I'm not sure if the green menu is enabled.

I have the ignition on without the engine running. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

oil temperature cann't be enabled on some Tregs. I don't know why and what it depends on, but sure - not production date

for RNS850 reset press simultaneously 5 buttons: Nav+Traffic+Climate+Phone+Knob

to enter Green menu - start your car, wait a minute or two, open Radio mode and only then press Car+Setup for several seconds

also, visit
T3 VAGcom tweaks - myTreg forums
as there are many people, who confirmed this tricks
