The buttons will never work mate :sad1: this is the thing we was on about not so long ago, the clocks are too old and will only work with either the stalk or the older button set with the 2 phone buttons and the source button.

Unfortunately this scuppers our plans of swapping :confused: has they will not work in my car I would have the same problem has your having.

Kalu was on about this to me before and basically the early clocks only have 3 bytes for the buttons ie volume up/down, phone hangup/answer and the okay button the later clocks had 4 bytes the added byte was to control the menu button.

? Not at all?

For this to happen would it not be a case of

Slip ring
Controller
Loom
and new clocks

Or are you saying simply.......NO go regardless?

If you fit the following

C version Slip ring
Highend controller
Mfsw / Airbag loom

you will have a working multifuntion steering wheel
The Menu Button won't work, just use a long press on the UP button to change settings
Audio and Navigation menus (to get out off you will need to switch the Radio off)
The phone button won't work if you don't have the phone kit

Yes, are you so desperate for a working menu button.

972 clocks are very rare

I recently fitted some, and the guy went to VW to buy then new for £426 :scared:

The wheel will work with your car, just not the menu button.

you will have control over the volume, access the trip computer, change CD tracks

but you need
1x Slip ring C
1x Highend Steering controller
1x MFSW / Airbag loom

if you want the menu button then you need to change your clocks to ones ending 972

Convenience option in highline is only available if you fit MAX CCM
1K0 959 433AR or 1K0 959 433CB

All of the info you require is in this post, please do not keep posting asking what you need
