Requirements
Steering Column Control Module
There are 3 types of steering column control modules, only 2 of them support cruise control.
- Lowline
- Supported Steering Wheels: Standard Steering Wheel (4-Spoke)
- Supported Features: Trip Computer (does NOT support Cruise Control!)
- Part Numbers: 8E0-953-549-F 8E0-953-549-S
- Midline
- Supported Steering Wheels: Standard Steering Wheel (4-Spoke), Sport Steering Wheel (3-Spoke), Multi-Function Steering Wheel
- Supported Features: Trip Computer, Cruise Control
- Part Numbers: 8E0-953-549-L, 8E0-953-549-N
- Highline
- Supported Steering Wheels: Standard Steering Wheel (4-Spoke), Sport Steering Wheel (3-Spoke), Multi-Function Steering Wheel
- Supported Features: Trip Computer, Cruise Control, Steering Wheel Heating
- Part Numbers: 8E0-953-549-M, 8E0-953-549-P, 8E0-953-549-Q, 8E0-953-549-R
Note: When replacing the steering column control module you may need to learn the vehicle identification number (VIN).
Installation & Wiring
In general the whole retrofit is just plug and play except that one wire needs to be added.
- Wire T16a/5 from steering column control module to engine control module (see wiring diagram specific your particular car/engine).
- Install cruise control capable lever (see parts catalog/repair manual).
Activating Cruise Control
- Change steering column control module coding.
- Activate Cruise Control in the Engine Control Module.
- See Engine specific Diagnostic Procedures, it's most likely a Coding or Coding-II involved.
- 2.0 TFSI and 3.2l FSE usually require a change of the Long Coding while all other Engines use Coding-II instead.
