I guess it depends on the level of driver assistance, i.e. the functions they actually perform by factory design... without someone subsequently knowing how to code/add more functions and go from a simple BSD to an LCA that interacts with other units of the vehicle.

I don't think anyone can offer a highly accurate answer on this, there are several levels of driver assistance depending on the evolution of the multiple functions that these radars can perform.

BSD Plus, LCA Plus, LCA Plus Evo x2 elves in each corner of the car...

#BSD installation


I have some pictures of the process with the online connection.

This is what ODIS saw:

And this is the error. It is in Greek Language, i translate it in English

The following error occurred
ERP0617E

Software configuration (encoding, adjustment/calibration, parameterization) could not be calculated. Check if a car-compatible control unit or spare part is fitted. If fault continues to occur contact the Support department for support.

ERP0617E means that sw of the control unit to replace/install doesn't match with data on VAG servers for your VIN.

If VW applies new rules/inventions for diagnostic protection, etc. no personal retrofitting that requires connection to VW servers will be possible, i.e. you pay (as usual) and they imperatively dictate what is your level of mental slavery (...mental at the moment, then you will have to bend your back and really dig, or you will be the subject of some kind of medical experiment... 😁).

I've run some tests on my mini test bench with the 2Q0 'B' BSD/LC rear radars. They support many parameters from different platforms —PQ, MQB, MQB2020, KL15/KL30— but they don't support the MQBevo platform parameters dedicated to your SK Octavia. I've tried ODIS and VCP, and in both cases, the writing of these parameters for MQBevo fails.

OK Fernando, thanks for the effort. So at the moment there is no solution for the retrofit project I am doing.

I've been looking for dynamic turn signals on the mirrors for a long time. I've installed them on my Polo and I'm very happy with them.
The day before yesterday I discovered this (finally) and I couldn't resist, I ordered them today.

I hope they are of good quality and fit properly.

Curiously these dynamic turn signals are especially effective and striking at roundabouts, often preventing other drivers intending to enter the roundabout from doing so while you are driving through it.
IMHO, the worse the headlight turn signals are, the more advisable it is to install them.

Hello,
i am back after months of absence.

I did some search for the BSD and those radars for my car.
There are people who did succeed this retrofit.

Some insisted that for my car the suitable radars are those with index - G
So I gave in and ordered used radars with index G
My retrofit project is officially reopen.

I think it's good to randomly modify some factors in the procedure/equation to avoid getting the same results. I do this often with disparate results... sometimes good and other times not so much.
Hopefully, everything goes well this time. Good luck!

You are right.
We will see.
By the way the Dataset file is the same for both radars with index G and H ?

Are you sure used radars will do CP on mqbevo?

"As long as they're not stolen, you're ok"

That's the answer I got from another forum.

I seem to remember that among the datasets I sent you were those dedicated to G radars. The same ones we saw in the Drive2.ru thread.
You'll have to pass the CP first and then transfer the datasets you have available. I don't know how VW has currently defined the procedures.
Personally, these VW circumstances matter little or nothing to me, I'm almost 100% sure I'll never use them again.
hmm... so I pay 40,000 to 90,000 euros for one of their products, and they have the power to decide on it... I'm afraid not.
In general terms, this world is full of very serious mental pathologies.

I'm going to buy a small donkey, which are also highly rated these days, this way, I'll have more time to watch ads on my f-smartphone while I'm traveling from one place to another. The little donkey already knows its way around, so a navigation system isn't necessary.

This contradicts what I know about mqbevo and these radars specifically. But I'm happy to be mistaken.

I know what do you mean and i don't know what to say.
All we can do is wait for these radars to arrive so I can test them.
