mk6 gti steering wheel fitting advice

[.:GTI|SUNNY:.]

Sorry to bump this thread, didnt see the point of making a new one  

Just want some clarifications please

Just found this:

I dont have MFSW at the moment and tbh i dont want the buttons, so is it just a simple case of taking my MK5 wheel off and put the MK6 one on?

Is the process:
disconnect battery and leave it for 5-10mins
Take MK5 wheel off
Plug the horn connection to MK6 wheel
bolt on the MK6 wheel
connect battery back up

Using same bolts

is this right? as i did a wheel swap on my previous car and did this process

I've never disconnected the battery when fitting steering wheels to my A3 8P

i bought the mk6 wheel off of one of the many sellers now (mk6).

it appears that they are "falling" off of the ROCCO assambly line.

i got a new rocco R black trimmed wheel with the airbag , compeltly new for 300 pounds and he was willing to sell normal gti for 210.

the same price applies if you want MFSW or paddels.

Sorry to bring up an old thread,

I did search for a while to get the answers I was after. But this seems to be the most informative at this stage.

Just to clarify, There are no additional wiring looms required. Going from 05 mk5 GTi non MFSW (manual) to mk6 MFSW Steering wheel?
Simply, SW Controller, Slip ring and CC stalk from mk6?

I'm assuming there's some coding to be done the CAN-Gateway to let the car know you now have MFSW?

Otherwise just going to the mk5 MFSW I only need the controller? or will I need the slip ring too?

if you buy a complete MFSW the inside wiring should be included. regarding slipring check what revision you have, if A or B it need replacing with minimum revision C for MFSW to work

Any knowledgeable people there can confirm if this will work on a Touran along with a mk 6 MFSW and the steering angle sensor??

Or maybe this

1K0 953 549 CK

Or

1K0953549CQ

[Eddie-NL]

If you want a mk6 wheel with buttons

use either

1K0 953 549CH or 1K0 953 549CK

I haven't used CK, but on ross-tech steering controller list it says it does support the G85

However I had a BS and CB and they were supposed to support G85 on the list but didn't

Thx Eddie,

I bought a mk 6 normal mfsw with both arms and controller controller did't support the steering angle sensor 
Also do you know of any vehicles that does not support rear wiper function in the wiper arm?
The arm is fitted but wifey can't push it forward to activate the rear wiper??

Hi Jake

You probably have a CD version and the stalk came from a Jetta, Eos or Passat Saloon
So You would be best to get a CH controller and change the stalk to one ending with H or J

Sorry to re-start this thread, but it has loads of info in it.
Iam toying with the idea of fitting a MK6 mfsw  to my 08 Mk5.
Currently it is mid-line ,non-mfsw, retro fitted with cruise in feb2012.

1)Is my slip ring ok?
2)do i still need control module 1K0 953 549CH?
3)do i need a new harness? like in this link?

4)is any coding required?
5)could i fit this myself, is there a guide?  i can't do coding......should be ok with mechanical stuff & good guide....bit worried about handling airbag.......

1)Is my slip ring ok? Scan with VCDS and check which version you have
2)do i still need control module 1K0 953 549CH? Yes
3)do i need a new harness? like in this link? Yes you will need airbag loom to support Multi function
