Without sounding stupid, what’s VCP..?
VAG CAN Pro. Similar to VCDS but can also  modify firmware in control units etc. More than what VCDS can do.

I know this is a pretty old thread now but I’m hoping I can still find out some information….?

I have a 2008 Golf GT 170 with the folding optional mirrors as standard. Can I get the key hold folding done by just reprogramming or do I need a new module/s and wiring..?

Thanks
If you GEN 3 MAX N modules apparently it's possible with VCP... That's what I have and it didn't work though. Will put my Mk6 module back in this weekend and see if it works with that.

I had this done on both my Golfs (GT Sport and GTI Ed. 30) with these part numbers:

Address 42: Door Elect, Driver        Labels: 1K0-959-701-MAX3.lbl
   Part No SW: 1K0 959 701 N    HW: 1K0 959 701 N

Try a different retrofitter.  :wink:
Same part numbers as mine. What software version are yours? Did you code it yourself or take it to someone?

It was my friend who coded it. I don't know the software version but it was many years ago.

Success!

Got it working with my Mk6 module. Ran the VCP OCF and it works like a charm, programmed it to unfold with ignition on.

Can you do anything else with VC Pro, such as the engine ECU, or is just for central electronics modules?

I'm looking to de-immobilise a spare engine ECU but don't know what tools/software are needed for that?

VCP won't do immobiliser work. You need something like VVDI.

I had this coding done firstly on my 5 door GT Sport and later on my 3 door Ed. 30. It was just coding of the door module's firmware.

Hi, do you have the part numbers for the seat modules ?
