Will this work with just the Bolero or does it require the Amundsen or Columbus? (I will have the colour maxidot)

Excellent - any idea what this bit is from http://www.stemei.de/pages/coding/seat-leon-5f/verkehrszeichenanzeige-aktivieren.php

 

1. Show channel Valid additional characters select
2. Value corresponding to customize default: 00100111

Thought this was a 'pay extra' add on? Not bad if you can activate it by playing about with the computer.

Is this just the vRS, or does the Elegance have the ability to activate it?

That bit was already coded on mine can't remember the exact adaptation but it's below the "Display end of speed limit symbol" adaptation the default value on mine was 00100111 I'm not sure if changing this modifies what signs can be displayed, however as it's in binary I wouldn't know what to change it to without experimenting. Mine shows all speed limit signs and no overtaking, I haven't driven passed other signs I would expect it to show.

 

The manual also states an option in the infotainment to enable traffic signs applicable to towing and this is below the option to enable/disable traffic sign recognition, I have not got this option below the enable/disable traffic sign recognition so there must be another adaptation to enable.

You need Lane Assist, Colour Maxidot & Columbus.

 

Don't think anyone has tried an Amundsen with it.

Ah, you need to have lane assist already. I see. Oh well, just means i have to look at the road now :think:

[andyvee]

Yep, it uses the Lane Assist camera

[Dodgy]

Would love to know if this works with Amundsen (assuming the car already has lane assist and colour maxidot)!

 

How much was the traffic sign recognition as an option?

[andyvee]

Don't think it is an option :-)

[gullyg]

What are the risks of trying to enable it? I've got lane assist, colour maxidot and admundsen and wouldn't mind someone trying as long as the car could be returned to "as is" if required.

Problem is I'm near Edinburgh.

[andyvee]

All changes can be reversed easily so no risk.

[JamesVRSmk3]

I'd like to know this too. I have Lane assist, colour maxidot but not Columbus.

[andyvee]

Find someone local with VCDS, preferably with experience of coding the O3 as it takes a while to get used to.

[Dodgy]

Don't think it is an option :-)

 

Was sure I'd seen it listed as a fairly expensive option, but I think the option included a bundle of Columbus and lane assist. Could be wrong!

Sod all of this stuff (coding, Sat Nav etc), I just the cheap option of road sign recognition. Mk1 Eyeballs.

Thanks for your input.

[andyvee]

Some good news - I have just coded this on a vRS with Lane Assist, Bolero and standard Maxidot - AND IT WORKS!!!!

 

Photo to follow soon ........

andyvee, still time for you to be nominated for most helpful member of the year award. You get my vote

[JamesVRSmk3]

Brilliant news thanks - That's the exact spec I have although thinking of amending my order to a colour maxidot.

[fewie]

Do all vRS models come with lane assist or is it an option currently on hold? I'm hoping mine comes with it So I can have this coded.

In the uk it's standard.

Thanks again Andy you are a legend!

 

Here's Traffic Sign Recognition working on my vRS with Bolero and standard B&W Maxidot:

 

 

There's also another page on the Maxidot if you want it 'full-screen':

 

[gullyg]

Out of interest does lane assist have to be enabled?
