The newer ones will work down to zero. You are correct in the the D3 models will only operate down to 30km/h.

So a 2007 touareg goes down to zero, but a 2009 A8 that costs double doesn't?

And there's nothig to do to it?

Any way to add extra options and packages :example parking sensors and account if u idon't have it

The ACC stop and go system uses 2 radar sensors, the parking sensors and also the lane assist camera. A much more complicated system. The regular ACC system doesnt seem to have enough resolution for low speeds. Its version of stop would be hitting the car in front of you.

Lmfao! I like the feature on long trips but you always have someone cut I front of you and it pushes you back quite a bit. For a good flow it works good though.

How do you use normal cruise instead of radar cruise? Still trying to figure that out in my w12

Wondering that myself.
Especially after ACC when blind and stupid for a bit on recent trip.

I believe you can change the coding and turn it off.

Ok, so i need a different ACC sensor then... schait...

Do you guys have a place to find newer part catalogs than vagcat.com, that only goes to 2005... that's over 7years old...

Maybe i'll just get myself a D4 W12, they only cost 250k+ here in finland as new, and a german used you could maybe import for a 170-180k, if you find a 100.000km+ car.

I'd love to retrofit everything that's possible, the lane departure system, mmi3g..... I'm a total gadget freak you see

I've done some crazy conversions for my older cars and boats, like installing and building EFI and COP ignition from single components, beginning from soldering the megasquirt board on carburetor engines, turbocharging, swapping drivelines, you name it, so i'm always up for some challenges.

Do a search for ETKA, and I am sure you will find a way to acquire it. This will have all the VW and Audi parts, and diagrams. Or do a search for ELSAWIN, if you are in need of all the VW/Audi repair manuals.

Poked around with the acc module today, and tested your schematics... didn't work

The weird is that your schematics say totally different than this, found from audiforums.us installations section

Both say that pin1 on the radar is ground(-), and pin2 canH, but then my ELSAwin schematic says pin4 = canL, your says pin3, and mine says pin12=+12v(acc/15), yours says pin8.

and on the gateway behind the glovebox mine says pin13=canH, your says pin12, mine says pin26=canL, yours says pin13....

where did you get your data from?
