Another cruise control compatibility question? Sorry!

BEA 600 003 A - Cruise control kit for Octavia Mk2 & Superb (3T)

Will this fit a '07 Octavia pre-FL Tdi PD 140? I don't have maxi-dot but I do have the right stalk with a rocker switch on the end and have two trip computers (one that auto resets after 2 hours, the second needs to be manually reset) using the stalk switches).

From reading many posts on this forum I think the answer is yes.

What I can't find out is whether I need to upgrade the steering controller (1K0 953 549 BC) or whether I will need to use the wire in the kit?

Anyone confirm either of these please?

Anyone?

I could do with a quick answer please before I lose the opportunity to get the kit at a decent price (hopefully).

Not sure on the steering wheel module, but the cruise control kit is the right one it also fits a VW caddy... just a pointless little fact there lol

Thanks Grizzle.

I'v just managed to decode the Ross Tech website page on steering wheel controller modules and it looks like it's pretty clear:

Control module: 1K0-953-549-BC

Slip ring type: Type 2

Software Level: SW 0070

Variant: Midline

Steering Angle Sensor: Yes

Notes: #1

#1: Does NOT allow Cruise Control Retrofitting, in such a Case you need to replace the Steering Wheel Control Module.

But it also says:

• Variants
  
  • Lowline: No additional Options/Features
    
  • Midline: Cruise Control, Board Computer
    
  • Highline: Cruise Control, Board Computer, Multi-Function Steering Wheel
    

Which suggests that the 'midline' displays have cruise control support!

Even more confused now...

hi kbphoto

yes you will need the midline control module then once all connected you

need to program it all in using vag com

[KBPhoto]

I have a midline display!

But my control module doesn't support cruise.

If I wanted to add MFSW I'd definitely need a high line compatible controller.

What about adding Maxidot later? Is that the high line display?

Really confused.
