Default Just noticed my Air Con settings in MMI are reversed!

It thinks the driver is in the left seat, which is all kinds of wrong (in NZ). Presume this is because I have a French originated MMI controller installed. Ive checked the Car + Setup menu and no option to change I could find. Ive also changed the setting in a few areas in VCDS but to no avail.. how to fix?

Go to the MMI secret menu (car+setup)

Go to Diag Settings

Uncheck Linkslenker (this is the setting for left hand drive vehicles)

Restart the MMI

I had the same problem and another guy told me this and it sorted it.

Sweet thanks! I did see this but didnt twig what it meant. I like how the Germans make up new words for stuff! Linkslenker - English translation - bab.la German-English dictionary

It's not a new word, just a German one. Links is left and lenker is steering controls. So linkslenker = left side steering.
