Made the switch. What a difference! Plug and play and use of all steering wheel controls.

did you have a 4 spoke wheel before because if you did,you should really go into the steering control module and update it otherwise you may experience intermittent operation of switches especially cruise.

Thx B Tech, will look into that although I have enjoyed it for the past 2 months without issue. Will open the steering wheel control module at some point and update the settings via Vag com.

Very very nice - can I ask cost and the source of the new wheel. Did you do it yourself ?
Cosmetically, this is the biggest difference between my old Bentley and my bosses new one.

Its on eBay. Don't think I can post link but simply look under Bentley steering wheel. Yes was a quick 15 min install. Really adds that new vehicle smell and one could justify the cost as a $200k savings over the cost of a new car (+-).

It is indeed listed in eBay and the cost is approximately $4k. The description makes it sound like "plug and play".

I'm not sure about your area Digger but over here I can select searches in either the UK, Europe or Worldwide.
It's an E-Bay setting to the left of the screen.
