  1. eBay cable and software?

    So did anyone ever get any further with this Leaving home coding for the non auto lights cars?
  2. eBay cable and software?

    I enabled it in the car menu and tried several times with the light switch in all positions but still no joy.
  3. eBay cable and software?

    +1. Let us know how you get on. I got as far as enabling leaving home in the car menu but unable to activate lights when unlocking vehicle. My lack of German has been a stumbling point here when trawling the coding options.
  4. The Definitive LED Bulb Replacement Parts Guide

    I can certainly vouch for these ones that do the front map lights, boot and footwells. I had to trawl through the posts and these were recommended and are indeed perfect error free reliable white LED's I have had installed for some time...
  5. Coded rear daytime running lights on, now interior lighting is on constant - normal?

    I have this coded on both my Leon & my Audi and love it for several reasons - 1. It saves me having to manually turn the lights on and off when it gets cloudy or dusk. 2. It allows me to run front DRL at full brightness with rear lights instead of them dimming. 3. I like having the speedo...
  6. Easy Connect Infotainment system going nuts

    This is interesting as I too have had a strange issue with my system that has happened 3 or 4times intermittently over the last 3 months. Whilst driving the radio volume will suddenly drop to a set level and it is impossible to turn the volume up any higher either using the radio volume...

    I am still trying to persist with this leaving home setting so I had another look this evening. I noticed that even though I have made the adaption changes mentioned in the previous post, I notice that if I go into coding and look at byte 0 there are very few ticks against any of the bit...
  8. eBay cable and software?

    I have tried all these settings this evening and also adjusted setting (9) that read "leaving home Zeit per BAP" which I set to 30 seconds for leaving home. It has added the option to my menu but has not illuminated any lights on unlocking. It also makes no difference if the light switch is...
  9. eBay cable and software?

    Think I am done now - Today done the enable chirp on lock/unlock and added in car Menu of on board computer. Also added in car Menu enable/disable of DRL's option. Tried adding into DIS "litres remaining in fuel tank" display but could not find that option anywhere.
  10. VCDS - How To Guides - MK3 Leon 5F

    There are no motors . I had mine apart to change the bulb. The normal fog beam lights up the corners the same as when the cornering lights are enabled. All cornering does is switch on the fog briefly when turning the wheel or indicating under 20mph. fortunately mine were already enabled...
  11. eBay cable and software?

    Just made the first mod this evening using the excellent guide from the forum. Enabled rear DRL's which means my front DRL's can also run at full brightness with rear lights and the added benefit of an illuminated dash and speedo at all times. (I have the halogen front DRL's which I switched...
  12. eBay cable and software?

    @RCOPUS When closing the virtual machine it asks if I want to save or power off. Do I need to select save or just power off the virtual machine. Will the license expire after 30 days and prevent me using the virtual machine? I don't understand this snapshot thing you mentioned in an...

    Hi guys Just to let you know I have now also successfully got VCDS software and lead working through the virtual machine which would not load previously on my windows 7 laptop. This is the OBD2 factory software. When closing the virtual machine it asks if I want to save the state or power...

    Thanks to RCOPUS just got my virtual XP machine up and running as per the excellent tutorial. Tomorrow night I will see if I can get my VCDS software and lead up and running through the XP virtual machine as I does not like my windows 7 laptop at all. Great to hear everyone else is now...

    For some reason the laptop I am trying to load the software onto has crashed and I have been trying to create a restore point all evening. If I ever get it up and running again I will try this virtual machine option. The frustrating thing is the number of hours that go into trying to get this...
  16. eBay cable and software?

    I have today tried to load the software from OBD2 factory seller and surprise surprise no device driver found and VCDS program tries to open and then closes straight away with an error message saying ensure internet connection turned off. I am completely disconnected from the internet, have...
  17. DIY LED interior lights

    Exactly the same happened to me with these same cheap LED's Put them in my map lights. They started flickering at first , got extremely hot and then literally fell apart in 2 pieces where the solder had melted. Put the old halogens back pending order of working LED's. Price is certainly an...
  18. eBay cable and software?

    Mine has arrived today from OBD2 factory seller. I will either try to install tonight or tomorrow. I already have a working version of 12.12 on my laptop but discovered it is the FREEWARE version. I had terrible trouble trying to get the driver and cable to work together but the seller...
