Thinking about activating some hidden features for my Etron gt, would like to know if I can have that rear light effects by coding?
Anyone tried coding Etron gt with VCDS?

Interesting note.
The hood has to be open to "disable the firewall" and perform many functions, which is new to me.
The OBD website states it and VCDS indicates it when you use it.
I also wonder if it is in case the 12V battery dies while using VAG diagnostic tools.

Tried tonight using OBDeleven and on our GT Quattro you can't turn on the light animations using the quick apps and you can't turn on the ambient lighting either (which you can see is in the right areas of the dashboard and console). I guess its either for someone to unlock @OBD or long coding or a hardware issue. Made some other changes and adjustments but not the ones I really wanted!
Not sure if this has been posted yet ...
I was able to activate tire pressure view in the virtual cockpit using the following instructions.
- In Virtual Cockpit, Vehicle Functions menu, steering wheel menu button will show "Sport" menu and a tire pressure view is available here after following instructions below.
17 Dash Board
Long coding
Acceleration display
Old value: No
New value: Yes
Restart MMI after coding

Byte 10 Bit 2 "Acceleration display, Yes"
I tired this but only get the non-functioning G-meter to display.
I even tried checking the box in byte 4 bit 0 for TPMS but still nothing.
Also drove around a bit to make sure it wasn't dependent on the 15mph startup limit for the TPMS.
Do you have any pics of what the TPMS display in the VC looks like?
Yes
Does anyone know if either VCDS or OBD11 offer the option to change the default drive mode on startup? I remember doing this way back with my B8 S4 and vag-com(?)
I just want it to start in individual mode. Changing the brake regen setting would be a big bonus too...

Interesting. Did that then disable the non-functional acceleration display as well?
Not yet but working on it….. this was an option on both my b8.5 and b9 S5s…was nice.
Perfect!
Done.
So for VC TPMS you just need
Byte 11 Bit 2 "Tire pressure monitoring: BAP distance, Yes" in module 17 - Instruments.
Cool
One thing I've noticed is if I shut the car off with the TPMS displaying in the VC that when I return it has "reset" to like the default first menu item in the Sports Display and is now displaying lap times, and if I switch to Trip Computer that has also "reset" to the top of the list and is displaying date and time.
This does not happen if I shut the car off displaying say Long Term consumption. It stays on that item when I return and if I select the Sport display that stays at the TPMS too...like normal.
A minor inconvenience for sure, but noted.
Bonjour, situé en France, j'aimerais savoir si vous aviez trouvé une solution ? Merci pour votre travail.

Keep us in the loop!
I've had an A6 loaner and an A4 loaner (as you do with these cars...) and both seemed to start up in the last drive mode.
