VW & Audi Coding Library
Common VCDS coding for VW and Audi, sorted by car and written step by step. Every entry lists the exact cars and module it applies to. Reference only.
Read this before you code anything
Reference only. MK6IX doesn’t answer coding questions or troubleshoot coding, by email, DM or phone.
Back up first. Run a full Auto-Scan and save it. Copy the original coding of every module you change, so you can put it back.
Check that it applies to your car. Options change with model year, market and module part number. If your car doesn’t show the option exactly as written, stop.
No guarantee. Procedures are provided as-is, with no guarantee of compatibility or results. You code your car at your own risk.
No safety delete codes. We don’t list changes that turn off seatbelt warnings, stability control or other safety systems.
