How?

Still no joy?

I've just checked - it's in the coding of Module 17 - Instrument Cluster (J285)

Remove 16 from the 3rd & 4th digits and the "press clutch pedal to start engine" nanny reminder will vanish and you'll get the normal DIS display when the engine's off. In the coding guidance it's described as "+16 = clutch pedal switch operation in FIS display".

As standard the coding in mine was 0023418, so I changed it to 0007418, job done.

Thanks, will do that today!

Enabling window open/close on remote press (can also close sunroof on remote but not open it).
Enabling rear lights on when DRLs on.
Changing pitch and volume of parking aid so that difference in pitch between front and rear warnings is more obvious.

Are you using a dual K-line lead? The RNS-E is actually on the L(K2) line so if you use a single K-line lead or a CAN only lead you won't be able to access it.

If you are using a dual K-line lead, then the L(K2) line may not be connected to your RNS-E - is it a retrofitted one?

it is the latest duel lead from Ross-Tech direct.

Not sure if retrofitted, we're they not all standard on uk cars?

Checked option code, factory fitted.

Checked option code, factory fitted.

Then you need to get someone to check the wiring - it will have been OK when it left the factory but looks like it's failed since then.

Fixed, was aftermarket iPod connection causing problems.

I just purchased VCDS from Ilexa (UK RossTech agent) & am having a similar problem, can't talk to the RNSE direct (module 37) or via the radio module.

Reading through the posts i see mention of a dual cable, the one I have only has one connector to fit the port under the dash. Where is the 2nd port ?

I also have an Ipod connection in the glovebox that is connected via the CD changer. Do I have the wrong cable or is the problem likely to be the Ipod conn ?

Thanks for any help,

Dave.
