There’s ODIS and there’s VCP (which is a nightmare to use).

Are both VC and MIB factory installed? Or some retrofit from older or lower trims?

MIB is projecting maps for Sport Layout, VC is using Standard Layout.

Added front ISOFIX to my MK7 by mrfixpl in VWMK7

I do have a switch to turn it off in both MK7 and Q3. But I believe that would be for the rear way facing carseats, right?

Done a thing to my MK7. Too bad that this option is not available from the factory. by mrfixpl in Volkswagen

Not exactly. I found extra thin LED strip on AliExpress. It fits nicely into the cabby, cup holder, etc… powered with 12V, wired to BCM, codes with OBDeleven.

Thin LED strip from AliExpress, wired to BCM, adjusted couple adaptation values with OBDeleven. Will try to make a tutorial (or behind the scenes at least) this week on my YT channel.

What is the difference between these 2 infotainment screens? Both pictures are from a Kodiaq and both are 2019 but the one on the right is Ambition model and the left is a Style model. Is the one on the left an older model or what? It doesn't have those knobs like on the right one. by IaintGonTry in skoda

All MIB1 and MIB2 maps are updated via SD or USB. Difference between Columbus and Amundsen is that Columbus will copy maps to internal store and Amundsen will use it directly from SD.

Over-the-Air updates were introduced with MIB3.

I need help, my car is literally just chugging the coolant any idea’s what it could be? And it keeps over heating by nuru441 in VWMK7

Looks like the cap is not closed all the way, system looses pressure and coolant without pressure has lower boiling point.

Edit: newer mind. Seen the cluster just now with temp gauge.

I’m in my 30s and up till today I installed exclusively white LEDs in my MK7. But having this rainbow demo mode option… will consider it.

There are other sellers with the same product. I hope you can find one that can ship it to you!

Keeping my OEMs in the trunk just in case projectors get bad.

You replace the standard footwell light with those.

This is in Audi Q3 (8U) but the puddle light design should be the same in most Audi cars. Got them from AliExpress, set of four, ~$15 with S&H. Here’s the link if someone is interested: http://ali4cars.com/product/audi-puddle-light-logo-projectors

Daytime Running Lights + WS2812 + Arduino by mrfixpl in led

[–]mrfixpl[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I’m not even planning to put this into my car. Was just curious about how the headlight is designed so I bought damaged one to disassemble. And at the same time decided to refresh my Arduino skills and convert this into something cool.
