Experiencing 9 GTI Hidden Features w/ OBDeleven Device

[@CameronAlford]

The pro pack comes with 200 credits. That’s PLENTY so don’t feel like you have to spend more money. OBDeleven does the all the coding necessary for you to make these tweaks, that takes time and they charge for that service. They make it easy for you. Hope this helps 👍🏻

[@CameronAlford]

Do you like highly focused tutorial videos like we’ve been posting. Or do you wish they were less professional feeling and more just hanging out? I really want to take this channel to the next level but I need to get the views up to do that. I’ve been struggling with exactly how I can make that happen. So I thought I would ask the source🤔 thank you if you are reading this, I appreciate you being here. It means a lot. Any advice/critiques/recommendations welcome here.

I think charging people "credits" each time for the ability to tweak each individual "feature" is super janky.

[@mohitme1234]

Especially at 5:50. I would run out of credits just trying different settings

[@cordelldejager]

It’s not at all.. normally you must learn how to code this in. They all made it easy for us and put these “apps” in it wich are features wich are pre-coded so you don’t have to code it yourself. Ofcourse you have to pay for that service

[@XxSmokeeyxX]

You're welcome to spend an hour coding the features yourself free of charge.

[@noahhastings3326]

How do you get credits?

[@iownyounoobs]

@@KMFDM781 Long coding is completely free with the OBD11, at least the older one that I have. You CAN spend credits to buy "apps" that do the coding for you with one button. Its more of a convenience thing.

[@JacesOwnWorld]

Pro tip: VCDS doesn’t require purchasing credits to do things like OBD11 does. Plus VCDS shows a lot more diagnostics for those who are looking for diagnosing things with their VW. OBD11 is great for those who just want to change a view the most popular things, and it’s a great price, but the majority of people who purchase it don’t buy credits once you run out of them.

[@buddysshop1860]

VCDS is superior

[@Peylix]

You're not required to purchase or use credits if you have the pro licence. Coding is free. It's the quick apps that charge. Though.... They just moved their pro licence into a subscription based model. Which IS dumb. Makes me glad mine was grandfathered in. VCDS is far superior on many levels. But I saved a bunch of money with OBDeleven vs having to shell out for a cable. 90% of people don't need VCDS anyways. Most functionality that is superior over OBDeleven are things many won't ever touch.

[@buddysshop1860]

@@Peylix unless you find a used cable for cheap 👍

[@Peylix]

@@buddysshop1860 true. But the only cheap ones I have ever found are the older cables that don't work with MQB cars or the single vin cables. Or multi vin cables with only one spot left.

I love the way you take a vehicle and go down the 'rabbit hole' like you do. It allows for all of us to learn what is possible with certain vehicles without having to take the plunge. Won't lie - you have me looking at GTIs as a daily - in a DSG no less considering I only have owned vehicles with a stick; it's weird to consider an auto regardless of DSG or not. Great work and awesome videos.

[@JasperHovenga]

5:30 Super happy with that function on my Skoda Scala as well. I just have to push the button for 3 seconds though to open all the way, and just one second for closing. I don't need to hold it untill they completely down / up. So for closing, i just walk away, because the windows close completely without holding the button :)

[@2qwik4u]

Cool video. Have you thought of switching your gauge cluster to the digital Active Info Display? It's even easier than on your Mustang. I'm sure lots of folks would appreciate that tutorial.

[@augmentedjustin835]

to get around the soundaktor thing without messing with any of this, you can just go into your settings on the gti and setup a custom driving mode and set everthing to sport and leave engine noise on comfort. with a stock exhaust setup if you have it set to comfort you really don't hear the engine at all.

[@Vaguh]

OBDeleven has a lot of great options. I think the name is a nod to the port name OBD2 aka OBDII, which looks similar to OBD11.

[@Vaguh]

From what I've seen, the dsg cpu adapts over time to the quality of the transmission fluid, you want to do a dsg reset when you do a dsg fluid flush.

[@manzelli1981]

I love my OBD11, but 1 thing about those credit-based tweaks: it might have changed but I don’t think your tweaks are data logged if you use the for-pay tweaks vs going into the adaptation channels for the modules you want to adjust. So, if you set up Urban Joke tails, but decide you like the 5-brake light look better, you need to figure out which lines of code changed when you bought your Urban Joke tweak, and manually update the coding. And the coding is in German. Great product but definitely a rabbit hole situation.

[@nikozafiratos749]

You just spend more credits and return it to your default setting before doing custom long coding...

Cameron, did you ever have any issues with your rear collision warning/blind spot detection?

[@taylorjones2268]

Throttle response, set to Audi is a game changer for driveability. it makes the throttle inputs linear, rather than ramped as it is standard and makes the trans feel much less laggy from a stop as a result. You can also change engine response to AUDI coding which is a poor mans tune, doesn’t give any more overall power, but will make the car feel more responsive at lower RPM. It can mess with your ACC though, so some long coding may be required to get this back. If you aren’t proficient with long coding, don’t touch it.

I see allot of these features in my head unit? Is this because of an update in the MIB2 firmware?

So if the MIB says it's active do you still need the OBD11 to ACTUALLY activate them??

[@HatsuneM1ku01]

If you have an s trim with mib2 it might not work since it’s an older model. You need the mib3 in the se and autoban trim. You’ll notice you don’t have the gauges on your radio display either where the mib3 on the se and above trim, have a sport page with gauges and lap timers etc. the problem with obd11 is it’s supports mib3, not mib2. Basically tye entire headunit of mib2 and mib3 are completely different and would also take rewiring and re coding the whole car to install or upgrade from mib2

[@rmgrimshaw23]

I have allot of features in my MK& but i wish I would have shopped around a bit more and grabbed an R or at least a 7.5.

All other settings could be changed back to my preferences i.e. UK mpg, Miles (not KM), C deg rather than F (temps), etc etc. That was the only way I could make it work. If I went directly from UK to Rest of the World settings, I couldn't get the digi-speed display!!
