Just got my cable from Nigel, great service. Vcds is brilliant!

So on my A3 8p I have;

Enabled alarm chip on arming
Set the rear fogs as tail tights
Set comfort closing by remote for the windows
Adjusted my wildly inaccurate fuel computer
Enabled speed readout on my radio
Increased tail light brightness by a few percent
Set tear drop wipe for rear wiper
Found out my car has an auxiliary heater!
Fine tuned the cam timing belt
Adjusted and smoothed my engine tick over

Probably a few other things too that I've forgotten!

A fantastic piece of kit, well worth getting for anyone handy with cars.

Anyone got any other little jems this software can do?

Did you activate this or was it already enabled in VCDS, could do with heat instantly, my A1 had one and i miss it :sorry:
 
No it was already there and enabled. Just didn't know they had one! Guess they are probably standard on the diesels.
 
may sound a silly question but what is the rear tear drop rear wiper?

It's where after you have turned off the rear wiper it delays the last wipe for a few seconds to catch any dribbles.
