Default VIM (video in motion) on A3 S3 FAIL!

So I tried to make VIM work and failed. The code generator from:

VIM login-code generator for MMI 3G

The codes it kicked out didn't work.

I'll do more research and report.

Another question, to our EU brethren;

Does the A3/S3 in Europe still allow video to work while driving in the 8V model? Canada?

Does not work in Canada. I'm interested in VIM as well.

HI,
Simply look for someone with VCP near you. This SW is able to unlock VIM in MQB-Based cars. Or buy a dongle from kufatec.de, which does the same.

Regards,
Mati.
