What did you do to your mk6/7 today?

[squirrel93]

Just get a mk6 tddi and it’ll never break down.

Oh, wait a minute? You have one

it’s getting on in life , it’s doing around 2.5-3k miles a month

Tried to do module programming with forskin but failed. Was looking promising for a high spec BCM swap, all good till going to save config and load then several failure logs and it stuck at 34%
Left it for about 10-15mins with no change in case it was just working in background then gave up and stuck original back in.
At least it does in and out codes all by itself .
Need to have a better play and a bit more reading up on the forscan forum.

We could do with an exhaustive list of what does what

It's a work in progress....

When installing the BCM it wanted the calibration file rather than the asbuilt and it seemed to pickup the original config of the new (s/h) BCM so thinking it's something to do with what sequences things are done but trying to workout the terminology difference between it and IDS for certain processes I'm not sure if I went about it all the right way. But the config menu is good I'll give it that. Once you've got the full version of foreskin that is, not one of the circumcised versions.

At some stage with all this coding and stuff I bet some clever sod will put a nice shell on it that is intuitive.

Be nice to have something like that

Would be nice to have an elm which would switch itself between MS/HS CAN cos it's really hard and inconvenient to keep flicking a wee switch

Be nice to be able to fit something that switches the ignition too

I think this forum is rubbing off on you Ned not so long ago your question would have been....... Does it have lights on it?

I've got 1 of those but there's no switch on it so I bought a usb 1 with a switch
