There are many many different types of codings available on Volkswagens and Audi control modules. Especially on the MQB platform, the lighting options are almost endless and most all of it is in German so be very careful what you are changing. Control module coding for module replacement typically you will match the original coding and you are good to go. For coding options for your particular make and model you will want to find a forum listing out all the common and available mods for your particular platform. Window changes, exterior / interior lighting changes, alarm horn signal changes, door autolock changes etc. These coding adaptations or long coding changes can easily be changed with VagCom VCDS or OBD11. Just make sure you write down your original coding so you can revert back easily if needed. I've fixed more than a few customers cars coding that got a little too far down the rabbit hole with their OBD11 and major functions like headlights or brake lights stopped working because they had a software coding change that didn't match the hardware and they couldn't figure out how to revert back.
Thanks for the tip matt do you guys do coding for vw? A coding video would be great
