Have finally got this excellent piece of hardware working! It's a well known retrofit and well loved upgrade for the TT Mk1 8N. If you're new to ColourMFA you will see that it's an upgraded centre screen which brings tons more functionality at your fingertips. The standout features (for me) are the diagnostics and animated high res. LCD (must code out and remove the OEM red or white screen) .



In the above video you'll see all of these features on the long test drive:
  • current speed
  • average speed
  • travel time
  • distance traveled
  • remaining fuel in liters
  • power reserve
  • boost pressure (for turbocharged engines)
  • engine temperature
  • intake temperature
  • oil temperature
  • on-board voltage
  • engine torque
  • current consumption
  • average consumption
  • oil level (in mm)
Display of data on the current trip and accumulated data (BC1 and BC2):
  • average speed
  • maximum speed
  • average consumption
  • mileage
  • travel time
  • fuel consumption in liters
  • maximum boost (for turbocharged engines)
Appearance customization:
  • selection of the background of the main screen (from preset)
  • disable unnecessary data output
  • setting the logo displayed when the ignition is turned on
  • upload your own logo
  • setting parameters displayed at the top and bottom of the main screen
  • selection of gear display mode (automatic transmission)
  • selection of a car picture for indication of open doors
Diagnostics:
  • reading data by group
  • reading errors
  • erasing errors
  • viewing error transcripts
  • support for KW1281 and KWP2000 protocols (K-Line and CAN)
  • plotting graphs on the screen according to the data in the current group
Display of standard warnings and fault messages:
  • high coolant temperature
  • low coolant level
  • low oil pressure
  • generator malfunction
  • the need to replace brake pads
  • etc.
Additionally available (not covered in the video):
  • power measurement
  • measurement of acceleration time
  • setting your service interval
  • parking mirror control (A2, A4, T5, B5GP)
  • OPC data transfer for RNS-E
  • choice of interface language (Russian, English, German, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, etc.)
  • choice of units of measurement (European, American, English)

Nice, so this can be fitted to the 8P chassis too?

yep of course - as you knnow all the modules are pretty much identical between 8J/8P so it's same same but different ;)
 
molto bella, complimenti all'ideatore; Volevo chiedere se montando questo sarà ancora possibile accedere a quello originale in cui sono presenti funzioni che magari su questo nuovo si perdono, quali: possibilità di nuovo attivazione/disattivare il suono di apertura/chiusura dell'auto, possibilità per attivazione/disattivare la drl, regolazione del suono del sensore di parcheggio, regolazione dell'orario di accensione COMING LEAVING HOME, funzioni di consiglio auto per risparmio carburante, navigazione veloce ecc! in poche parole installando questo nuovo FIS si perde qualcosa delle funzioni originali o no?
