Hi guys, thought it might be good to start making a list of VCDS tweaks and mods for the polo 6c as i believe its quite different from the 6r. Anyone got any good ones?

Yeah I second this too! There has to be some decent VCD mods out there. Must admit, have been thinking if some of the Golf MK7 tweaks would also have some chance of working on the 6C's because its practically the same kit inside!

I found this thread on a Golf Mk7 forum, might be a good starter for 10 for you 6C guys to see what works etc?

I find sitting down with the VCDS software and going through each module and seeing what options are highlighted for you to tick etc quite interesting, although of course it will vary vehicle to vehicle.

Here are a few confirmed vcds tweaks. All in Dutch but chrome translates well enough to read.

This one will be an interesting one. Think it may just be a case of stocking the bloody thing in and seeing what options you have. From what i've seen online you can change basics like 'going home' and 'leaving home' timeout's on the actual head unit. There's bound to me a load more obviously. Is the VCDS S/W free to DL?

So, I found a huge guide written by a guy from Denmark, and it has all kinds including needle sweep (which I just enabled!) I will post a link to it at the top, and will translate it all and post a big guide in the next few days.
