siberian,
You might as well be speaking in Greek...
However, to do my part to help us T2 guys out, I ordered the vag-com.
It should be in my anxous little hands by Wednesday...
The rear fogs are already wired up, so that is my first test.
Also, did you get the DRL option to show in your settings with the new code???
 
I am now part of the solution, not part of the problem…I hope!
Got the vag-com today and played around a little bit.
I was able to enable the DRL option in the MFI!
I was able to enable the rear fog lights! I already wired them up and I’m happy to report that they work as advertised with the little green icon on the spedo too!
I was able to disable the seat belt warring, both aural and light!
I switched my xenons to non North American and now the front fog lights stay on with the high beams. Not very significant, but a cool option.
I was able to add the TPSM disable to the MFI!
Like I said, I only had about 15 minutes so I don’t have the long codes, but I will get them and report back.
Thanks a lot Siberian, as I used the codes you provided to get me started.
The long code helper is pretty self-explanatory! Like Siberian said, it almost easier then short code because you have hints and options built into each BYTE of long code that is used.
One thing I need to figure out is how to get the gear indicator next to the D or S when driving like a pre 08 Touareg. I’ve seen pictures of it so I know it can be done, just have to figure out how…](*,)
 
Does anyone know what the "Assistance Driving Light" is??? I do not think its a Fog light, as fog lights are called fog lights...
This is a vag com option and I cant figure out what it is doing.

I changed my instrument panel to Europe mode and the digital KPH display can now be selectable to MPH in the MFI...that is a cool little find. This also gets rid of the NAV acceptance screen crap!

I figured changing the instruiment panel to Europe mode would give me the gear display next to the D or S while driving, but it did not. I also tried AU, SA, JP, and GB with no luck.

If anyone with an 08 or later T2 in Europe (or really any non North American) can get a scan of thier Touareg and share it with me I would be very happy!!!
 
NAKID,
That is what I thought too, but I selected the "Hi Beam with Assistance Driving Lights" option and I do not notice that anything changed.
They do not come on with high beams on or the fog lights on.
This vag-com thing is fun....
 
Pics of my adventures vag-com.
1st is the rear fog light
2nd is the rear fog icon and also the alt speed display in MPH not KPH. Notice how big the alt speed number is now!
3rd shows the DRL option in the MFI
4th shows the Cruise Control icon on the MFI, it truns green when a speed is set
5th shows the alt speed option
6th shows the TPSM disable option

My module 17, Instruments is the same as you discribe. It will not accept anything other then 0 or 1.
I think I remember seeing someplace that you can go into the security portion of module 17 and play with milage, and service interval.
I am going to look for that write up and will let you know, as I was working on the same issue.
 
Yeti, from what I understand the older TPSM was pretty bad.
I not had one proplem with my TPSM. I only gave myself access to disable it in my MFI for the cool factor.
Everyone around Club Touareg seams to be singing the same tune as far as the new TPSM being much better then the old.
Like siberian said, you can also change the pressure value with vag com if needed.
I assume his troubles stem from the extreem cold temps up in AK.
As promised I checked out to see if the TPSM light stays on with the system off...I'm happy to report that the light does not stay on. So you can shut it off without looking at a fault or TPSM light...
Just my 2 cents...
Sean
