On a highway return trip of 620 miles I get 46mpg or 6L per 100km in my 2011 2.0TDI. I always fill it till i can see it and refill it at the same pump. Is the only accurate way as pumps can cut off at different levels, Ever since I put 41L into a 36L tank in my Patrol I have a healthy disrespect of ...

Re: Passat B7 Folding mirrors

could you stick a video up? Sorry got it off a guy on a different forum who doesnt want it posted to the world. Its easy to do but you have to have the same module that mine has. The old way of altering a byte from 90 to 95 doesnt work in my car. Doesnt need a video a school kid could do it in 5 mins

Re: Passat B7 Folding mirrors

I did mine today in a 2011tTDI It involves coding a byte in Module 47 driver door module and only works if the module is a GEN4 .c1b

Will fold on locking and can either unfold on unlocking the door or putting key in ignition

IT WONT WORK ON ANY OTHER MODULE
