What cool things can I get done to my car with VAG COM this weekend

[Aimez]

I have had a trawl throught the VAG COM section but 90% seems to be about how to get it and use it and then about error codes
This weekend a fellow SCN member local to me is gonna plug it and see what we can do.
What have you guys done, can we headlights on when unlocking car, what else only have this weekend and need to make the most of this op!

i believe you can turn on an audible beep when unlocking / locking, i will see if i can dig out the code for you.

is it possible to enable the headlights when u turn the alarm on??? as my fiancees fiesta has that feature, i know someone here has enbaled the confort wiper, so everytime u put your car into reverse the rear wipers goes on ;-))

I have done the beep when clicking car (didn't want ot for unlocking), cumfort rear wiper (if you have wipers on and select revese the rear wiper will give you 1 wipe clicky), disabled selective locking (all locks open with one click of remote).

Mine's always been like that?

comfort rear wiper, hazards and/or a really pants beep when you lock and unlock, disable 10mph auto lock, disable double press for unlock all doors and that's about all I can think of.

headlights or foglights when unlocking I thikis a unless you want to install a relay between the interior light and the headlight switch wiring.

Thanks guys wasn't really expecting much response.
hmm well he thinks he can do the lights but maybe this is cos he has done it on his Altea. Not bothered about the rear wiper think it would irritate me! So can I get to specifically beep only when locking? I would like this as if my back's turned I get paranoid as I didn't see the indicators flash so end up unlocking then re-locking it. Don't really want it on when unlocking though no need.
Think I will keep the 10mph lock on may one day need it as annoying as it can be when you have passengers trying to get out! But the one click for auto lock sounds great I always forget when I have passengers or need to put stuff in the boot!

Yea, you can choose which one you want or to have both.

exactly!

Its very easy to do.

 

[Aimez]

well hopefully he will know how to do this and the one button unlock as that is all I want unless anyone can think of anything else?

 

[Damoegan]

To disable Selective Unlocking

Turn on ignition, start up VAG-COM

Go to "Select control module" from the main menu.
Select "46 - Central conv."
Click on "Recode - 07"
The number in at present will be a even number, add one to that number to make it an odd number then click "Do It".
Remove keys from ignition and lock the car - the next time you go to unlock pressing the unlock button will unlock everything.

You can stiffen up the steering if you find it too light. I did this for a few months but ended up putting it back and then I appreciated the lightness much more It's in the steering assist module but I can't remember the settings. It's in the Vag-Com forum somewhere.

I cant conect to my steering wheel for some reason

 

[veezee]

I have done the beep when licking car

I'm surprised all it does is beep
