not true, there's software out there that lets you use the climatronic system to bring up stats, not sure how many stats though.

if you have climatic there's no use - and I'm not sure it's even on all the cars.

ps you don't need any software, it's built in to the climatronic display by standard

Yes, but all the previous articles on this topic are aimed at the Audi/Volkswagen original Climatronic system - this newer one obviously has rotary controls and is from a different manufacturer.
