You said above that is wasn't a MFSW _ I guess you got confused  :signLOL:

You may well need a new steering controller if you weren't MFSW originally.  I'm sure one of the guys who's fitted it will be along to help.

When I changed to the mk6 MFSW (no MFSW before) I had to change to this:
1KO 953 549 CH ( i ordered the BK but it didn't work with the slip ring)
Also you will need the slip ring 1KO 959 653 C (your car may have it)

And if you have C/C you can expect to lose it as we haven't solved that problem yet  :sad1:
