Default Tried that..

The VOICE CONTROL module does not respond at all. I checked off the Voice Control box in the CAN Gateway->Install List settings, but that didn't help either.

I think this may be a physically seperate module that isn't in our US Spec car.

Could be wrong, though.

Default ...but if you absolutely HAD to disable the TPMS (for example if your winter setup had no sensors)..

...according to this post, subtract 512 from the value in Chanel 61 of the Instruments module.

Of course, do this at your own risk, and again, it is illegal to disable this :^/

Default Great job figuring this out! Thanks. I'm new to this site and I can't believe ...

how much I'm learning about my car. Everyday someone has something new to try/fix.

Default Well, most of it from right here on AudiWorld...

been an active member (in the C5 A6/S6 forum) for about 4 years now, and it is amazing how much info is at our fingertips.

Of course, my experience with the VAG COM is really from just experimenting, there is really nothing you can do that will harm the car as long as you write down the original codes. Some things are trial and error, some things have already been tested and known to work.

As time goes on, I'm sure more and more VAG COM mods will surface for the B8 platform A5/S5.

If you ahve a laptop already and can afford the $350 price for the genuine VAG COM cable from Ross Tech, I highly recommend it. There is nothing better than finding out why you are getting an error light without having to rely on the dealership all the time.
