VCDS will not tell you whether the BCM is low, mid or high. The physical pins on you BCM will tell all.
Do what I did (which I mentioned in post #20) and just photograph the pins. Study the pictures by zooming in and just down which pin #s you have and compare them to the tables of pins and their functions (which I assembled and also linked to in my post #20)
I thought I had a low BCM because I have an S, but it turns out I have the high BCM.
Hmm, my BCM is a midline and vcds (17.8.1) told me that I have a midline, also I searched the part nr on google and saw it at the pins haha.

(I will try to explain it as best as possible with my form of English lol) To get the BCM out of the car. Remove the lever of the car hood (there is a clip on the back, you can get that clip out with a screw driver)

When that is done, you can click the door sill panel of, and the side of the fuse box / light switch.
Now you can remove the torx below the steering / fuse box and remove that plate. Behind the fuse box there is the BCM, unclip the two clips at the bottom then you can it bring a bit to the left (LHD) and pull it down. When it almost hits the foot rest you can pull out C, B, A plugs.
It looks harder then it is.

In VCDS you can find the SW / HW under group 09 cent electronics. Or just do an autoscan and post it.

For my car with the mid bcm, I hope that this one will fit 5Q0937084CF.
Will know it probardly tomorrow when I got the VIN of that car..
. The second time took 5 seconds.
