Correct the fuel consumption display
If the displayed consumption differs from what you actually fill up, the trip computer reading can be calibrated.
Hidden features and retrofits for the Volkswagen Passat B7 (3C/36) 2010–2015
41 features for the Volkswagen Passat B7 (3C/36) 2010–2015: what it does, duration and price from. Workshop in Waddinxveen, remote across the Netherlands.
Final compatibility is confirmed at diagnosis.
Display 8
Infotainment start-up logo
Choose a different start-up screen for the infotainment system, for example the logo of a sporty version or of the sound system.
Display only; nothing changes technically.
Condition: RCD 510 / RNS 510
Speed limit from the navigation map
The navigation system shows the speed limit from its map data on screen. Handy as a reminder; road signs still apply.
Map data may be outdated; road signs take priority.
Condition: RNS 510
Needle sweep at start-up
At start-up the speedometer and rev counter needles sweep fully out and back once, just like on sports cars.
Only visible with analogue gauges.
Oil temperature on display
The oil temperature appears in the instrument cluster display. Handy to see whether the engine is warm before accelerating hard.
Condition: MFA+ cluster
Parking distance on the screen
Besides the beeps, the infotainment screen shows a picture of the car with the distance to obstacles around it.
Requires parking sensors; on some models front and rear.
Condition: Park distance control with RCD/RNS 510
Refuelled amount on the display
After refuelling, the instrument cluster shows how many litres were added, so you can easily check your fuel receipt.
Video in motion
Videos and images from a USB stick or SD card stay visible on the screen while the car is moving, so the passenger can watch.
For the passenger only. The driver must not watch video while driving.
Condition: RNS 510/RCD 510
Lighting 10
Ambient lighting setup
More colours and your own brightness for the mood lighting in the doors and dashboard, selectable on the infotainment screen.
Only if ambient lighting is fitted from the factory.
Condition: Ambient light LEDs fitted
Cornering lights via the fog lamps
When turning or steering at low speed, the fog light on that side switches on, so you see where you are going in the dark.
Only with front fog lamps.
Condition: Front fog lights
Daytime running lights – Auto position only
The daytime running lights then only come on with the light switch in Auto. We discuss in the workshop what suits your car.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Daytime running lights – adjust in menu
The daytime running lights appear as a setting in the vehicle menu, so their behaviour can be chosen deliberately. The final setting is agreed in the workshop.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
DRL while indicating – adjust
You choose whether the LED daytime running light on the indicator side dims, switches off or stays fully lit.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Condition: LED DRL
Fog lights with high beam
The fog lights can stay on when you switch on the high beam.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Condition: Front fog lights
Motorway light – activation speed
Sets from which speed the headlights automatically switch to motorway mode for a longer beam.
Condition: Light/rain sensor
Poor-weather / all-weather lights
Releasing the fog-like dip or all-weather mode on matrix or LED headlamps that already have that mode in software. Without the right lamps we will not code an extra beam.
Extra light when reversing
In the dark the fog or cornering lamps come on when you reverse, so you see more while manoeuvring.
Condition: Front fog lights
Coming/leaving home with fog lights
When unlocking or locking, the fog lights or rear lights light up as well as the headlights, so you see more around the car in the dark.
Only with factory-fitted fog lights.
Comfort 6
Comfort-indicator flash count
A short tap on the indicator stalk gives the number of flashes you prefer, for example five instead of three when changing lanes.
Windows and sunroof via the key
Holding the button on the key opens or closes all windows (and the sunroof) at once. Nice for airing the car on hot days.
Mirrors folding on lock
The door mirrors fold in automatically when you lock the car with the key and fold out again when you unlock. Handy in narrow streets and car parks.
Only possible if the mirrors fold electrically.
Condition: Electrically folding mirrors fitted
Close windows when it rains
If a window or the sunroof is left open while the car is parked and locked, the car closes it automatically as soon as the rain sensor detects rain.
Only works with a rain sensor; we check this first.
Condition: Rain sensor fitted
Remember seat heating
The car remembers the last seat-heating level and switches it back on after starting, within the time window the manufacturer allows.
Condition: Heated seats
Extra wipe after washing
A few seconds after washing, the wipers make one more sweep so no drips are left running down the windscreen.
Convenience 6
Doors locking from a set speed
The doors lock automatically once you drive off above a low speed and unlock again when you switch off the engine.
Mirror dip on reverse
When you select reverse, the passenger mirror tilts down so you can see the kerb. It returns once you drive off.
Depends on mirror and door module version.
Service interval setting
After servicing we reset the service reminder correctly and set the right interval (fixed or flexible).
SFD release for protected modules
Newer VAG models only allow coding after an online release per module. We arrange that session, for which the car must be online; if the release does not come through the function cannot be coded and we charge nothing for the attempt.
Start-stop – remember last setting
The car remembers whether you had switched the start-stop system off, so you do not need to press the button on every trip. The final setting is agreed together.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Condition: Start-stop fitted
Sunroof fully open from the key
The sunroof slides fully open from the key instead of only tilting; the blind behaviour can also be set.
Only with an electric sunroof or panoramic roof.
Condition: Sunroof fitted
Access 1
Doors unlock at switch-off or in P
After auto-locking, the doors unlock again as soon as you remove the key or, with DSG, select P.
Sound 2
Acoustic lock confirmation
A short tone when locking and/or unlocking confirms that the car really is locked.
Requires alarm siren or suitable horn.
Condition: Factory alarm fitted
Reverse-gear beep off
Removes the short beep when you select reverse; the parking sensors keep working as normal.
Only with factory parking sensors.
Condition: Park distance control
Assistance 1
Hill hold – hold longer
Hill-start assist holds the car a little longer when pulling away on a slope, which is especially pleasant with a manual gearbox.
Only within the factory settings.
Safety 2
Brake lights flash in an emergency stop
In an emergency stop the brake lights flash rapidly so traffic behind you is warned earlier.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Seatbelt reminder – adjust
The seatbelt reminder can be set differently, for example for work where you often get in and out briefly. We discuss which setting suits you in the workshop.
We agree the exact setting with you in the workshop; you sign for it at intake.
Performance 2
DCC damping in Individual
Giving the adaptive dampers their own setting in Individual instead of tying them to Comfort or Sport. Only works with factory DCC; you cannot code this onto passive dampers.
XDS differential lock adjustment
The electronic differential lock (XDS) intervenes more strongly or more gently when accelerating out of a bend, for more grip or a calmer feel.
Depends on ESP software version.
Retrofit 3
Cruise control retrofit
A cruise control stalk or steering wheel buttons are fitted and the function is enabled in the engine control unit. Relaxed driving on long trips.
Not every engine software supports this; we check in advance.
LED number plate lights without error
After fitting LED number plate lights, bulb monitoring is adjusted so no "bulb failure" message appears.
Use only E-approved LED lamps.
Rear-view camera retrofit
A genuine rear-view camera with guidelines on the infotainment screen, coded as if fitted at the factory.
Price and feasibility after checking your equipment.
Condition: RCD 510 / RNS 510 / RNS 315
