[vRS front fog bulbs]

Which way you used to change the bulbs? Did you remove the bumper or wheel well or belly plate or just the plastic part under the fog lights?

 

Just the plastic part under the fog lights. Use your mobile phone to take photos if you want to see what's inside 

[VCDS coding for rear plate led]

True but at £250 for VCDS I found paying £34 for the LEDs more cost effective.

 

Yes, that's true 

 

A friend of mine has VCDS and I haven't to pay for it.

[VCDS coding for rear plate led]

I doubt that, it's more likely the error free bulbs tried weren't right.

 

 

Could be true and only expensive led bulbs work fine but, after coding with VCDS, I fitted these for 3,5€ and no problem:

Awesome work.

 

I read that if you have Front Assistant radar this should be recalibrated when the bumper is removed. Does anyone know if it is true?

Done

[VCDS coding for rear plate led]

I fitted canbus error free LED number plate bulbs and don't have an error.

 

Spanish vehicles does  :(

 

Can be due to a different configuration depending on the country 

[VCDS coding for rear plate led]

When the w5w bulb in rear plate is replaced with a led bulb (even if it's canbus error free) an error is displayed in the Infotainment. It's possible to use VCDS for using led bulbs:

 

-> Controller 09 - Central Electronics

 

-> 16 - Security Access - enter 31347

 

-> 10 - Adaptations

 

Change the 2 channels listed below

 

(1)-Leuchte25KZL HA59-Lasttyp 25  -  set to: 43 - allgemeine LED

 

 

(6) Leuchte25KZL HA59 - Dimmwert AB 25  -  set to 127

 

 

Here you can see the difference between Led (left) and halogen Philips Blue Vision (right):

Done!

 

 

Be careful when removing the plastic because you can break the seal (I broke the first one). Use a thin piece of metal for easy removal.

IMO the better is to start a new one and add the link here for reference.

Thank you xpower!!  :clap:  :clap:

Maybe it works if you follow the non-vRS configuration:

[vRS front fog bulbs]

Spanish version uses only the exterior bulb for cornering and when you turn on the fog lights four lamps are lit. Maybe it could be changed with vag-com.

[vRS front fog bulbs]

I'll use halogen bulbs. Blue effect (5000ºK) for cornering and Yellow (2500ºK) for the others.

[LED indicator bulbs]

any progress with this issue? I want to change bulbs too

[vRS front fog bulbs]

You have to pull them straight backwards from the foglight. Off is one thing, i did not manage to get them back on. Can`t see any problem driving without these plastic locks.

Thank you ahaavi, excellent image! I guess it's for security reasons. I'll try to remove it this week.

[vRS front fog bulbs]

Hi all,

 

Has anyone changed front fog bulbs? I could access the bulbs by removing the plastic under the fog light but there is a plastic part that I do not know how to remove. I recorded a *poor* video with my phone.

Any help is appreciated
