Hi everyone, if anyone has installed one of these aftermarket led shifters, I'd really appreciate your input. I honestly think I've received a faulty shifter.
My led shifter arrived today from aliexpress and it took me about an hour to install... and then another 2 hours of troubleshooting...
Hey I just saw this, sorry. Love your videos by the way, they've been a massive help with my own retrofits.
I don't have VCDS/OBD11, but I do have OBD2 and my car scanner app gives me access to some coding and live data.
I'm going to be changing some adaptations tonight so I'll double check it...
Wait, they enabled Wireless android auto? Was this through updating the MIB2 or MIB2.5 software? My latest version is about 2017, but if I have to update to 2022 to get wireless aa then it's worth a shot.
Retrofitted the premium panels for all 4 doors + my glovebox. These trim pieces are plastic welded to the door card and break upon removal. Thank god for gorilla glue
Overall cost me about $90AUD or $60USD
I think I'll just upgrade to the latest official 06xxD firmware. We'll see if there's any noticeable changes. I guess this wouldn't allow me to unlock any SwaP though (i.e. voice control).
I think I could do the 08xxD upgrade if I had the right equipment, but I'm running on a macbook pro with...
Very useful website, thank you.
For my current version 6028D, which of the below could I update to?
Latest official firmware: MST2_EU_VW_P0642D (MU: 0764). Latest possible firmware: MST2_EU_VW_P0879D (MU: 0879).
I'm also looking to enable voice control, I see a Delphi method mentioned in the...
Are there separate models for the AID in the centre of pre-facelift instrument clusters? I recoded my infotainment theme from the blue TSI to the red GTI, and I'd like to code that small section in my cluster to match. Not sure if its doable on a comfortline TSI 2017 model.
I still can't believe they were going to charge $550 to replace the perspex. Suffice to say, I'm very happy with my $20 fix.
They also quoted me $705 to replace the plastic trim around the cupholders, which is an absolute joke. Rather than spending all that $$$ on a $5 piece of plastic, I just...
My current shifter is looking pretty worn (thank you previous owner), so today I went ahead and bought an LED shifter.
I bought the piano black shifter with perforated leather for $70 delivered. When finished, it should look something like this:
Which I'd consider a massive improvement...
My local auto store was having a sale on Meguiar's products so I picked up some PlastX today.
I went at the cluster with a microfiber cloth while regularly reapplying PlastX. Overall, it took me about 3 hours of watching Netflix while scrubbing back and forth to get it all cleaned up. There's...
Installed the screen today, I already had the original screen out so it only took me 2 minutes to disconnect my battery, plug the screen in, and reconnect the battery.
No issues whatsoever with the A variant, even the app button works. Well worth the $200AUD.
