Ed 30s have LC as the instructions on how to use it are in the Edition 30 addendum to the car handbook!  :happy2:

....Then that strongly suggests that all those posts claiming that VW considered and treated instances of LC and also logged them, as 'illegal', were a load of internet forum bollox.

I'd always said from the off that there is no way VW could enforce using LC as a warranty opt out when it's in my manual as a function of the car! :happy2:

Nissan did that for the GT-R though  :surprised:

stealthwolf:
YEah but I think nissan said to use the launch control, you have to tamper with something and then write elsewhere that to tamper with whatever it is voids the warranty. Therefore you have LC but can't use it.

RedRobin:
....

Launch Control seems such an easy feature to include in a DSG box of tricks.

animal:
SMG E46 M3 has it too, but using it also voids the warranty IIRC.

Can it be enabled on a DSG GTi? I see HPA can add it with their DSG controller remap, so I assume that for the time being through them is the only way?
