Really appreciate advice re. coding in new steering wheel / cruise control

[ksr]

Hi Folks,

 

Really appreciate your advice before I commence some OEM modifications. I have a Dec 2011 Superb 1.4S (so no additional spec., apart from dual-zone climate and auto lights)

 

I have purchased:

• multi-function steering wheel,
• 'highline' steering wheel control module,
• the connector wire for the wheel,
• cruise-control indicator stocks (correct one, without rear wash/wipe)

 

I am planning to go ahead and fit all these pieces. I have a genuine VCDS cable, bought from Nigel Hobden, and can download VCDS onto my Surface Pro.

 

What I'd like to know is, is this the correct approach? Fit all the items, then go in and code them?

 

Would really appreciate advice from any who know VCDS, or have made similar modifications.

 

Thanks, in anticipation,

 

Regards,

 

Kenneth Ross

Yes you will need to fit the items before coding. VCDS is good but not that good that it can communicate with items that are not there!!

 

Remember to update the CAN gateway list to let it know you have a MFSW fitted.
