Hi.
I’m having touble saving long coding changes, done to my cars.
I’m changing the code and saves, without issues. But next time I read the code it hasn’t changed!
Been trying to adapt rear camera and air suspension on my A6 2010. On my A4 2014, I’m trying to change front light settings.
Same problems on both cars. Long coding changes will not be saved!
What am I missing??

Thanks for reply!
Please enlighten this newbie how an autoscan would be helpful in this case.
Autoscan of all systems or just the one the I try to make changes in?

Some updates. On my A6 I have MMI and access to the green hidden menu. Tried make the correct adaption settings in there, for the rear camera and air suspension....and finally that worked it out. When I check the long coding with vcds it now has changed....
Why wouldn’t it just change when I tried through vcds directly?

Problem still persists on my A4, which dont’t have the hidden menu to go in and make changes in...

Well, a scan would tell us a lot about the car you are working on, as well as the version of VCDS and the interface...

Removed.  Data from a clone/pirate copy of VCDS is not welcome here.

Well, I suppose the same reason why Engine can't be reached in latest scan.

If Uwe says you've got a clone copy of VCDS then that's what you have - he's the founder of Ross-Tech so he should know :thanks:

You've been sold a clone so ask the seller for a refund and if relevant report him to your local Trading Standards for selling fake goods.
