The VAG AMAROK platform is a shared ECU family used by 2 vehicles, with examples including Volkswagen Amarok (2009-2015) and Volkswagen Amarok (2016-2022) under the Volkswagen brand. CarCoding works with this platform; the app is available for iPhone, Android, and Windows and works with an ELM327 OBD2 adapter. The platform has 10 modules: AIRBAG 15, BRAKES 03, CENTRAL ELECTRONICS 09, CLIMATE 08, INFOTAINMENT 5F, INSTRUMENTS 17, NAVIGATION 37, PARKING ASSIST 10, TELEPHONE 77, and TRANSMISSION 02.

With CarCoding, settings for this platform are resolved at runtime from the unit part number (ODX). Examples include Horn without ignition, Automatic door locking, Automatic door unlocking, Retrofit heated mirrors, Wiper change mode, Rain sensor, Interior lighting on key removal, Coming-Home / Leaving-Home, Extra wipe after washing, Dimming LEDs with Turn Signals, Automatic headlamp activation in rain, and One-touch turn signal (5 blinks).

On Volkswagen Group cars the setting list is resolved from the car: CarCoding reads the unit's part number and fetches the matching ODX bit map at runtime. The list you see is the one your unit actually carries.
