Good post for those looking for VagCom codes.

BTW, if anyone is in Houston and needs access to a VagCom, let me know via PM.

I have a question for you, what is the Valet Mode you can activate via VAG-COM? Does that actually do anything.. And have any of you adjusted the range of your headlights as I have lowered my car and they seem a bit low. And last question, my side lights work only when I leave the blinker in either left or right and turn the car off. This is EUropean style setup, but any coding to change to have them light up with the LEDs.. THanks in advance.
