Apparently no radars need to be installed as the front assist radar will do the job for ACC and even pACC. Only the stalk needs changing which will be a genuine part. Depending on warranty situation, I will probably only do this once my warranty runs out as I value my warranty more than ACC.

Hi all, so an update to this situation. As most of you said the dealer wasn’t able to fit this themselves which was a shame. In fairness to them, they did try to find a way internally to do it but every tech person/department they tried all said no. I did shop around retrofitters and found a someone who can do it at a reasonable price. The dealer has said they’re happy to pay for that amount. I’d say a fair result in the end.

Thanks for the advice. If that’s the price for a retrofit then I will certainly be asking for that in compensation if they cannot do it themselves. If it is going to void the warranty then I will wait another 2yrs before doing it. Regular cruise control is ok enough

I’ll push hard to ensure my warranty remains unaffected if I go via third party or I’d be wanting a far larger compensation. but surely they have the technical know how to do it as what if there was a genuine fault with those modules. They would have to test each one and replace anything faulty including updating any software issues

Really? I would have thought that would have been their first option over any monetary compensation. surely changing a lever and updating the software to recognise it would be fairly simple on their end?

Yep I have regular cruise control only despite paying for the drivers assistance package. I have found the brochure for last year and that package clearly states ACC. I have all the other extras like front assist so I am hoping all of the cameras and radars are there and it won’t be difficult for the dealer to retrofit it. Do you think I can also ask for compensation?

Hi all I ordered a Kodiaq last year which was delivered early October. I included the Driver Assistance Package which I am sure included ACC but this option is not available in the new configuration so I cannot double check. Does anyone know if that package included ACC

Hi, I have narrowed down my new car to these 2 - looking at L&K vs XCELLENCE Lux The Tarraco is considerably cheaper comparing like for like so I was wondering what additional features the Kodiaq has over the Tarraco? From looking online it seems the Kodiaq has a better sound system with the Canton and the rear seat back release (not sure if that is available on the Tarraco). However these are negligible so pending test driving both, I am swaying more to the Tarraco Any thoughts? Thanks
