Thanks to john(hufcforpromotion) I received my new MFSW today got it fitted quick time may need to play with the vag com abit more cos the highline button doesn't work?  all the other buttons apart from the obvious phone button cos I dont have factory bluetooth work fine.



Thanks again John for the bargain steering wheel.

About 2 mins to change the wheel and 30 mins to change the controller and code it up.

i'd be interesting in knowing which buttons aren't working. Some of mine dont you see. Mute button doesn't work, the star. And when im on the audio menu in highline, the up and down buttons don't change track. They should right? I hope its an easy fix with vag com. Btw..i.ve retrofitted highline and mfsw.

Scott that would be like chopping my nads off If I couldn't mod my car... :sad: there will be some thing I can find to do.  My wheels are getting refurbed on Saturday going for the Seat leon FR wheel colour with a satin clear coat,  Then ill be on the look out for some oem xenons and then the recaro seats from the S3.

It never ends :evilgrin:

JPC the only buttons that dont work on mine are the phone button and the highline button,  not sure on the highline button but I dont have bluetooth so the phone button I can pass on not bothered about that, but the highline should bring the setting menu up for the highline when pressed and held for a lengh of time???must be a vagcom thing but I only changed the coding in controller 16 to 2012 and every thing worked.

Would you be up for fitting a new wheel to mine?

I keep thinking about this one..........

I have midline, so what buttons would actually work????.

On my A4, volume, scoll radio stations & CD tracks, & phone button which has been livened up with a piece of Parrott kit, multi cann I beleive its called, I had it done when the car was only 6 months old.

I guess an Ed30 whell would be about the £250 mark.
