Gen3 steering rack replacement problem (VCDS)
« on: September 21, 2025, 11:01:08 am »
Hi,
First post here, hopefully in the right forum section.

I was hoping someone can advise or help, I am fitting a GEN3 steering rack to my ED30 next weekend due to g289 torque sensor failure.
I understand there is coding and some adaptations to do, one of them is to deactivate the internal steering angle sensor which would be done in adaptions - channel 9 in VCDS.
When I go into steering assist (44) then adaptions, channel 9 doesn’t exist and I cannot locate steering angle sensor on any other channels. Maybe a silly question, but does this channel become visible once my gen3 rack is installed/plugged in? This is the only roadblock I’m having, looking at other tutorial/posts everyone else has channel 9 visible in adaptions.

Thanks in advance!
