What can you do with VCDS (Ross-tech)

[paulbroere]

I have ordered a Ross-tech HEX V2. I read on this forum it can be used to lower the Taycan.
I’m curious what (other) functions can be programmed or altered via the VVDS.
Does anyone have experience with it?

I was debating that or obdeleven, which is similar and allows you to lower the car as well. I ordered the obdeleven

Update, obd11 doesn’t work with the taycan

Does this tool allow to turn on Rear lights (along with front DRLs) - Porsche Taycan 2023 model?

Thanks...

Anyone can help if VCDS HEX-V2 can do any of the below?

I am mainly looking for... coding the below:

1) Turn Rear Lights ON along with Front DRLs
2) Change Turn Indicator flash count from 3 to 5
3) Start Car in last mode used (i.e. Range, Sport, Sport+) rather than default Normal
4) Increase length of Front seat backward movement - when exiting car for an even easier exit..
5) Increase vibration on steering wheel - when car drifts onto side lanes, LC/KLA,etc..
6) Decrease/ Increase brightness of Front DRL

What features for the tacan are available in OBDEleven?
Other than diagnostics.. what Apps (Coding features) are available?
Would you be kind enough to list or screenshots, please?

Not sure i'd be doing anything to lower my car further given the $11k to fix a 3mm scratch thread...

I am currently away from home, but will see what I can find out when I get back.

For me when i go to chasis control with obd11 it didn't let me do any adaptions, all I could do was read and clear codes

For what it's worth, I have the 3 VIN license one previously (Hex V2) that I used to code my TT-RS. I tried to use it on my 2024 RS E-tron GT to code things like rear DRL, but the only module I was able to communicate with was the CAN BUS module and no other module. It may be different on other model years, but specifically for my 2024 with a 2/2024 build date, it cannot communicate with the other modules, even with the Frunk opened.

Is everybody popping the front trunk before attempting this? Seems pretty common it’s necessary before changes can be made.

I did pop the front trunk, didn't make any difference for me with obd11.
