Retrofiting mfsw steering wheel
« on: January 28, 2016, 01:32:26 am »
Hi there, need some advise.
I'm Retrofiting mfsw to my 06 gti non mfsw, the question is what steering module do I need? Is it the one ending with CH? Or is this just to upgrade to a mk6 mfsw?
Thanks in advance

CH covers you for both mk5 and mk6 wheels so is the best all rounder to get.
Other highline modules are fine also but with the negligible price difference these days, you may as well get CH.
Used to have Edition 30 - number 009 and a GT TDI 140.
Now have an S4 B8 Avant (stage 2)

Can I just say that the alignment of the wheel wasn't refitted like how it was removed as it was a spline or two out of place and the marks didnt match up when refitting. just my observation Raz

Good video though  :happy2:

Must be the camera angle  :laugh: at least you know how too and it's a piece of cake really thanks to you people can fit their own ones in. programming is debatable  :signLOL:

I still want to fit the cruise in mine but laziness kicks in.

Another little tip that I like to use is to put a marker pen line on the head of the bolt each time it had been re-tightened. A simple way of keeping track how many times it has been off  :happy2:
