Hello everyone,
I wanted to reset the DSG (direct-shift gearbox) to its default setting on my VW Passat B8.
The problem isn't that everything is well described on the Ross-Tech website; it's something else.
Unfortunately, I can no longer access the measurement data blocks on the B8; I'm only able to get into the advanced settings, which isn't very helpful for me right now.
To perform the initial setup, I would need to go to the "Initial Setup" tab and then initiate each individual process.
Is there a guide for this from Ross-Tech?
I will add an Autoscan later this evening  .
Thank you very much in advance!

Hello,
Can you please post a Screenshot of what you see in the DSG control unit information?
Best regards, Rainer.

Hello,
I actually expected that the procedure for the basic settings in VCDS would be self-explanatory after selecting the dropdown menu as shown in your Screenshot, but I'm not sure.
I'll follow up and let you know.
Best regards, Rainer.

At Ross-Tech, everything is described perfectly, so that's not the problem. |
Do you happen to have the link to the description?

Yes, it's actually quite self-explanatory. However, even with the link mentioned above, there are a few things you need to be aware of. That's why I wanted to make sure I understood everything before proceeding.

Okay, so I tried the basic setup today. Everything went well. There were no errors reported afterwards either. The subsequent test drive was also completed.
Thank you very much!
