My Mk 3 SE L 2.0TDi DSG shows a state of charge after pressing the distance re set button for a short while. This state of charge always shows - - %.

 

Is there something I need to enable to make it give a reading?

No it should display the SOC% without anything being enabled. Sounds like a faulty SOC module. Best visit a dealer and have it checked.

Mine is the same, and there have been a few similar reports. I think someone suggested that it didn't work straight away on new cars.

So it may kick in after a few (?) miles. :wonder: 

That is the largest signature I have ever seen 

I'm probably wrong. According to this post it might be because the sensor isn't connected properly: http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/369781-state-of-charge/#entry4364146

I'll ask the dealer when it goes for its first service in a couple of months.

I think I've solved it.

 

The forum instructions on signatures is cr@p but john999boy has provided invaluable help and now it's more like what I was trying to achieve in the first place.  - I just hope it meets forum standards.

 

Would you believe - making a Word document to look how I wanted the signature  - save - screenshot of this - crop in a photo editor (Serif PhotoPlusX8) if you're interested  - save - then upload to Photobucket - copy image code - open Briskoda to my profile and edit signature - pray. Two hours of my life I will never get back.  

 

Now back to the SOC!
