Cruise control
« on: September 05, 2020, 08:21:52 am »
I have a Mk5 GTi 2006 low line, no cruise control, I'd like cruise control, can this be done?
Also I've upgraded to a golf R Mk7 steering wheel that has all the full multi function buttons, is it possible for the to work for the cruise if it can be installed?

Can help with regards to the steering wheel query however I had a MK5 GT-Sport on an 08 plate and I got cruise control fitted to that by my local VW garage.

Looks good.  AFAIK it needs an custom module to interface the two - https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,87812.120.html

You can probably still retro-fit cruise by changing the stalk to one with mk5 one with cruise., which sounds like what Eitheen88 had done

Yea after reading a little bit more I didn't realise that it it's just a stark swap and vag job, I'll just do that, just assumed the mi5s with multi function steering wheels had it in them like the newer cars.

Anyway, appreciate the replies.
