CarCoding is an app for iPhone, Android and Windows that works with an ELM327 OBD2 adapter. It covers the VAG GOLF6 coding platform, a shared ECU family, shared by 1 vehicle in the facts, with the example vehicle Volkswagen Golf 6 (MK6) (2008–2012) under the Volkswagen brand. The platform has 12 modules: ACCESS KESSY 05, AIRBAG 15, BRAKES 03, CENTRAL CONV 46, CENTRAL ELECTRONICS 09, ENGINE 01, GATEWAY 19, INSTRUMENTS 17, NAVIGATION 37, PARKING ASSIST 10, STEERING COLUMN 16, and TELEPHONE 77.

With CarCoding, settings for the VAG GOLF6 platform include Rear Wiper installed, Cruise control setting, Speed limiter installed/active, Central locking behaviour, Unlock doors when turned off, Lock vehicle at 15 kph, Tilt Mirror in Reverse, Comfort functions, Automatic Comfort-Closing windows, and Comfort functions - keyfob. Other examples are Special Handling for Audi Models Active and Alternate Parking Light Function active. The settings list is resolved at runtime from the unit's part number using ODX.

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.
