Adding cruise control to Euro VW TDIs, here's how to do it.

Adding cruise control to Euro VW TDIs, here\'s how to do it.

For all you European TDI owners.
All VW TDIs have cruise control functionality right there in the ECU as standard.
To use it the functionality needs to be unlocked using VAG 1551 tool, and a new indicator stalk needs to be fitted. Total cost is about £100 GBP if you do-it-yourself.

Instuctions on how to do it are here.

Fred, should this info be archived on the site, or included in the FAQ or something?
You could just rip the text from above and put it on your site. No copyright issues, I am the author.

Great stuff Christie!
I hope Fred CAN archive this and all the other genuine tech stuff that gets posted.

I hope folks realise how much time and effort goes into posts like this.

Yes, I'll be adding it. I'm going to re-open the FAQ to start updating some stuff in it. First I'm going to have to figure out an easy way to keep updates in both online and offline version. Please remind me if I forget to add it.

Thanks,

Fred
