BC suggests a type 2, so try get a type 2 highend other than AQ as some software versions of this have problems with cruise.

Stop worrying

You have a BG controller ordered which is for mfsw
You have a C version slip ring from me
You only need a mfsw loom and airbag cover if you didn't buy an airbag

ok had a bit of a headache with this over the weekend did me and joe!!

found i did actually need the multi function airbag loom...

also the slip ring we fitted doesnt seem to be working correctly, if couldnt register when my steering wheel was turning, we checked this through VCDS and the angle of the steering wheel didnt change when we where turning the wheel to full lock and back.

due to this it had caused my steering assist to fail and for some reason, turned my ESP off. so i had steering assist warning light and ESP warning light on my dash  :confused:

put the old CH controller on the error was still present, swapped the slipring back over to the old one again and after the left lock, right lock trick the errors went and my steering was back as normal!

has any1 experienced this before?

based on our findings as far as i can see the slipring is faulty and i will be in need of a new one!

basic settings need to be performed in most cases, when the controller is changed

Slip ring doesn't cause the steering fault, it allows communication with the steering wheel

The G85 sensor has photosensors that read the different size plastic tabs on the back of the slip ring as the wheel is turned

If the mfsw works and the horn then that would indicate that the slip ring is ok

I would try basic settings
