Brilliant psuraj, I have been longing for some of these tweaks as well on my GT, but have not had any time over weekends.

I was just wondering if the 'Needle Sweep' on ignition can be activated through VCDS. I would love to have this done along with the lane indicator flash increased to 5.

Sorry Vik0728, yes he did activate that also. I forgot about it. Thanks for reminding. It is all together a 15 minutes task including the full scan. We need to meet up and request Robbie again! Anyone else you know of? So we can go all go together provided robbie doesn't mind.

Link I just uploaded for you.

Hey is it possible to get the VCDS scan from Robbie of your car? i need to compare my Instrument cluster version both SW and HW to be sure if staging is due to newer HW or just a sw update.

my scan is

Address 17: Instruments (J285) Labels: 5K0-920-xxx-17.clb
Part No SW: 6RF 920 860 F HW: 6RF 920 860 F
Component: KOMBI H03 0103
Serial number: 00000000000000
Coding: 140A00

I dont have the scan log with me right now. Robbie has said that he will mail it to me as soon as he becomes free. 95% It will work on yours also newton meter. It is a simple selection in VCDS. It is not in the name of staging so please beware that is totally different. 1st gen GT TDi is nothing but a vento without a boot and stiffened front spings. Rest all is the same mechanically and electrically.
Have you bought the VCDS cable along with the software?

Hopefully - yes i have VCDS - with SW.

I tried staging and Instrument Celebration - no luck.

2 possibilities - i can have older Library files of my VCDS
or My instrument cluster SW is older version.

Can you PM me your details. I don't have PM feature. It is not Celebration or Staging for sure. If you can give me the list of options, I will let you know.
Rest all important things like tear wipe and emergency brake blink is activated ?

Cheers.Will send you a mail.We will wait for Robbie to become free and we can visit him along with some other people who also want important things which should be activated. We should make a mini meet for this I think.

For all the people who Have GT TSi and TDi, Vento and polo, there is a reference thread for all the various VCDS tweaks by Robbie. ESP setting is only applicable to TSi.

It is in Instruments >Adaptation >Indicator Celebration.
But I believe you need software version 12.12.2 for it. With version 11 the option was not available. Try it out. I do not have the log file with me as I am out of town, will send across the details once I am back.

VW Polo GT TDI: Initial Ownership Report

Guys figure out a place with decent parking space(preferably in koramangala) and if you can all coordinate I can get the VCDS tweaks for all of you together on the same day. I am free on 7th Aug and then again on 19th and 20th. Let me know.
