Default Partial VAG-COM options...

***Still working out the suspension details as it is very very tricky on the D3.

Audi A8 (4E/D3) Chassis VAG - COM Options and Codes.

The 2003 + (2004 + in North America) utilizes the latest Fiber Optic system (MOST) to incorporate multiple electronic functions throughout the vehicle. There for you will require a HEX - COM + CAN or HEX - USB + CAN cable
from Ross-Tec (www.ross-tec.com) to access the majority of components.

Please note - before making any numerical changes, copy and save the original coding before doing so.

By making any changes, you are doing so at your own risk.


Instrument Cluster - Control Module #17 (Instruments)
The following procedures will allow you to adjust various parameters associated with the instrument cluster.

Begin by selecting # 17 (Instruments) under the tab Common and then selecting #7 (Re-Code). The options for the cluster are in a 00xxxxx format.

Example: 0016401. This will remove all warning chimes for doors, trunk lid, fuel filler cap, and hood, but still provide an optical warning in the MFI. The warning chime and light for seat belt reminder will also be removed completely and the needles for the instrument cluster will be illuminated when the exterior lamps are off.

Default 2nd tire size is interesting...

If you wanted to fit large wheels and oversized tires - with a larger tire OD for ride quality and gas milage... Wonder how large a tire OD you can dial in?

Default Im not quite sure about that one part...

Note the binary value of 16...Well all of our cars are quattro. I have TPMS. According to that coding I should have a value of 17 but mine was set at 16 from the factory.
