Hi. What does it look like if I have the original Virtual Cocpit Counter, but it is damaged? there is communication with its electronics, but the display, indicators and buzzer do not work... Can it be replaced with a universal one like yours?

OEM can still mirror the inbuilt sat navs onto digital cockpit

[@autoapna]

Yep - it can show the built in navigation. But can’t show Waze or Google Maps is what I meant.

Why doesn't the digital cluster appear in the same group's Audi B8 and C7? 😢

[@MrPlayboy28]

On the original digital cluster you can't get the Waze map view but you get its directions. On Android Auto any map app gets its directions mirrored to the compass on the cluster. On CarPlay only Apple Maps but you also get remaining distance, distance to the corner/roundabout and ETA.

[@autoapna]

You do get directions with original VW maps on this as well. I’ll make another video soon explaining all the features

[@MrPlayboy28]

​@@autoapna Nice! I was just sharing how the OEM works so it's easier to compare. On the OEM one you can only see the actualMp if you use the built-in navigation. Unfortenaly you can't mirror Waze and Maps as with that one...

Hi, first time coming across your channel. Is there a chance you can show a detailed video of how you removed the motherboard and the whole motors for the needles and how you connected everything up. Im asking as I've seen some tutorials where others have broken some bits off, making the motherboard unable to go back into the old housing. Im also currently adding some mods to my car and was thinking of paying for a VC, but the prices I've seen on FB or Ebay are not worth it.

[@autoapna]

So regarding breaking off the board. Nothing needs to be broken off. Just removed off. So if you ever need to go back to stock. You can do.

[@dentonalewis00]

Great video. Have you had any problems with the unit since fitting it

Have you compared it to the oe digital dash. It looks low resolution on this video compared to my digital dash on the mk7.5r, like the oe is 1080p and this one is 720p. Is it maybe just your recording device.

[@autoapna]

It’s pretty clear. You can’t see any pixels on screen. Not sure what the res is on the original but this is HD. Also surprisingly the UI is more responsive than the stock one. I tried the UI on a MK7.5 GTE with stock VC
