Love this steering wheel. My dad's FS has the four spoke, and I have to say I love my 3 spoke wheel much better.

Congratulations.

Can someone tell me what setting do I need to do in Steering wheel control in Vagcom to switch to 3spoke steering wheel? I updated mine but heated function doesn't seem to work. My old wheel has heated steering wheel.

I will post an instruction of how to remove the airbag and steering wheel if anyone is interested.

With a 2010 GT Speed, don't you already have a 3 spoke wheel? I'm thinking you might be referring to the 2018 3 spoke? Here are two pics. First is a 2010 GT Speed; second is a 2018 GT. If this is the switch that you're looking to make, I personally don't know the answer. This thread was about switching over from the original 4 spoke wheel to the one in the pic of the 2010 GT Speed.

OK, so if you're looking for a 3 spoke as in the first pic, to replace the original 4 spoke as you say you have, then yes, the switch should be pretty much plug and play and bolt up. I did this switch on mine and air bag connects, plus accessory connects all matched.

Most of the 3 spoke wheels I've seen out there for sale do not have the heated wheel feature. If you car has, then you'll want to look for a wheel that has the button; otherwise, the space will have a blank. The wheel should still work, but you'll need the button to make the feature work.

One other small detail, when I switched over, every thing functioned as it should have except the cruise. I fixed this by recoding the steering wheel via VCDS.

Yes. I have been assuming you are in NA. If you are in Eur then I cannot guarantee that everything will work. Maybe, but I only have experience with North American cars.

So i changed Mine too 3 spoke. Everything work except Cruise Control. I can switch on and Off that It. Vcds simulate that all Switches works.

My coding is 000012. 1 is for 6 Switches and 2 is for electr adjustment. What i have to change.

32 worked for me on a NA car. I do not know about an ROW car. It's easy to try. You can always go back to 12.
