Audi Throttle Mod?improves the throttle response.

This mod improves the throttle response by changing the engine branding from "VW/Seat/Skoda" to "Audi". In my opinion it's the best performance mod you can make one step short of remapping. Research shows that some drivers who've made this mod on other MQB platforms (Golf Mk7 from memory) report some errors in the dashboard.I test my Passat B8 and my friend's SuperB,it really made the different.
VCDS:
Select 01-Engine
Enter Long Coding and change the first byte from 01 to 02 (i.e. uncheck bit 1 and check bit 1)

You will probably receive any error message in the instrument cluster - this is OK. Just cycle the ignition and away you go!

@everyone who reads this:

I would be VERY cautious to make changes to your engine coding, just because someone on a forum with only 3 posts says it's a good idea.


@CloudLv: can you show some source with the other experiences?

I tried to be the Guinea pig for this. When I went to adjust the long coding with OBDEleven it kept giving me "Function not available" so nothing yet.

Coding took. I'll see what it does really quick.

[EDIT] : Feels a little more peppy around mid range to me. I'm pretty sure that did change the pedal curve. Nice tip.

What is this actually doing though? How was it found? Does it change anything else besides the throttle curve?

How does it break your cruise control? A friend of mine is also a golf VII GTI. He is also mod it. The cruise function is a little different from the original one。Cruise Settings are displayed on the dashboard by pressing the I/O key of the original factory. Did this mod you must press the wheel I/O botton and then press the wheel + or -,the cruise can be shown on the dashboard,you could set the speed what you like.

Could be, but it's still a good idea not to mess with stuff without having more info than "this works". There are multiple examples of 1 simple code change causing major issues to a car, that couldn't be undone with VCDS (for instance, byte 18 of the Golf 6 BCM could f*ck up a lot of things).
