What kind of speeds have you tried? Might not work under a certain speed

Hmm, very strange. Possibly a faulty switch then - have you checked that all the buttons work using the measuring blocks on VCDS? Otherwise are you sure it's wired up properly at the plug on the bulkhead?

Finally sorted, turns out it was a faulty clutch switch even though vagcom saying it was ok. Just drove down to Lincoln @ 70 mph returned 65.1 mpg well happy :D .
