Hi Guys,
Have been doing a bit of logging today just seeing different things and it seems I cant log 021 which is bank 2 knock sensors, nor can I see bank 2 lambda readings on 031.
Any ideas why im not seeing bank 2 at all?

Bank 2 is controlled by the second ECU which is at address 11 not address 01.

Ah right ok, so would you put in 131 for example or do you address it another way? If so strange that it would show bank 1 and 2 on the same block. Unless that means I do have to address it elsewhere.

Instead of opening the controller at address 1, you have to open the controller at address 11 - and then look at bank 1 to read bank 2
Remember VCDS is generic software for all VAG cars, and the RS4 is unusual in having 2 engine ECUs (one per bank).
So VCDS shows the normal assignments for a car with only one engine ECU, which is why it tries to show the results for bank 2 but can't.
