I only have one customization (Auto PDC front) that I had to do with long coding back when I did it. The highest level of caution is demanded in this area as who knows if a bit/byte published by someone was for a given firmware, but that changed in your later firmware. -> I didn't make this change as it already worked on mine from default but needle swipe is another one that required long coding.

As to your specific issues: When I did the switch-off speed, it was given in kph, so default was 10kph or 6mph. Maybe they changed it to mph in OBD11 now? Since it's an adaptation, I don't see any harm in trying 10 in yours and see what the effect is. As I've mentioned before, carefully record everything you change so you can go back if necessary. -> I tried 20 and drove this morning. Seems to be working fine... It keeps the camera on till 15-16 mph. Mine built is MY2017 - NOV 2016 Build.

For the pax seat, you mention my lines #2-#4. It's actually #2-#5 (it takes all four changes). Did you do all four? If so, my guess is that something has changed in your newer MY. If it were me, I think I'd stop and say close enough. If you can move the seat from driver side, is symmetry really that big a deal? -> Yes, sorry, meant to say #2-5. I performed the changes using regular coding (active vs non-active) and tested. Then went to check on long coding... the things were not ticked... figured it would change the long coding as well... so then I reverted the regular coding and went with long coding... they both had the same effect with only able to move pax seat not symmetry. It's not a big deal actually... I reverted all of the items to their original settings.

Changes I made were on Module 36/Coding

Easy_Entry_Fond -> Not Active -> Active
Easy_Entry_Front -> Not Active -> Active

Also, I wanted to know if you were aware of the following changes:

1. DRL staying on or dimming while signal (US vehicle)
2. Auto brakes engaging at stop at light so you can take your foot off. (Available in Lexus)
3. Enabling google map in US Q without Audi Connect

1. I've seen something on the forum about DRL dimming. I don't know if anyone's found a way to keep them on. You will have to search for it. Personally, stuff like that I don't mess with because I really don't care. I'm inside the car and what other people see really doesn't concern me. If it was designed that way to make the turn signal more visible, fine with me.

2. I have not seen coding for it. Two workarounds: (1) manually engage the parking brake. It will self-release when you step on the gas. But your brake lights will not be on. (2) If you have ACC, once you are stopped, you can engage ACC and it will hold the car until you touch the gas or tug the ACC lever, even if nobody is in front of you. Your brake lights will be on.

3. Nobody has found coding for this. They have it locked down pretty well; you have to subscribe.

It could be that the software/firmware is more updated that it doesn't allow for such things to happen. In any case, if someone on software: 0918 or above get the seats stuff working, please let me know. Mainly look for Easy Entry for seat to go back... Symmetry would be icying...

1 - Got it. I read that someone got it working on the european ones, didn't see anything for US. I just think it takes the look out of the vehicle. One eye shut!

2 - I will try the ACC. But again their will be a manual intervention every time you stop.

3 - Got it. Thanks!

In the MMI the only thing I can do is enable passenger seat. So today, like a fool, I set everything to active. Still nothing. Would try any options you have...
