Force gauge/screen on the S3 2017 virtual cockpit ?
Hi experts,
I am from Montreal, Canada. I am new to the forum. I have been reading for months and months. Now I have ordered my S3 2017 and it's getting on the boat this January 16th. I took:
I had a quick question though. Is there a force screen or panel in the S3. I have a friend who has a 2016 GTI. They do get it. I was wondering if we could enable this panel if it's not there. The RS3 also get two radial percentage panels to display boost. Can we activate this with OBD ? Thanks in advance |
Congrats on your car. Daytona Gray is a spectacular color.
I don't know of a g-force display on the S3, but I haven't looked too hard either. There is a boost display, at least on the Virtual Cockpit. I'm in the US so it's possible that Canada gets different features than the US, so keep that in mind. |
I don't believe there is any sort of g force display, at least not that I've found so far on my 2017 S3. As noted above there is a boost gauge that is displayed on the virtual cockpit screen.

Nope - no G-Force meter on S3.
Slightly different question though: can the MMI display tire pressures? |
The 2017 S3 with Virtual Cockpit does have the G-Force meter, it just needs to be enabled via VCDS/VAG-COM or a similar tool.
This worked for me in VCDS: 17 - Instruments Coding > Long Coding Helper > Byte 10 Enable bit 2 Display 'Acceleration' https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...1990716d55.png https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.aud...2cde44d733.jpg Hope that helps. |

Yes the g meter works great.

why are the values different for each direction? are those max values? are those stored values based on a recent drive? how does it work?
That's just cause the car was off. Once started they all go to zero. Numbers change to current g value and the center white circle moves around. |
