VW T5.1 Cruise Control Retrofit Enhances Driving Comfort
Cruise Control and MFSW Retrofit on a VW T5.1
Transforming the Drive – the OEM Way
Some vans leave the factory with key features missing. This T5.1 was one of them. We fixed that by installing genuine Volkswagen cruise control via a stalk, paired with a fully functional multi-function steering wheel (MFSW). No aftermarket boxes. No messy coding. Just OEM-level integration—exactly how it should be.
Why Upgrade?
Ever found yourself gripping the wheel on a long motorway trip, wishing your T5.1 could hold speed like a newer van? This upgrade solves that. The retrofit included:
✅ Factory-style wiring and coding—no shortcuts
✅ OE cruise control added via stalk
✅ MFSW upgrade with full button functionality
Full VAG Diagnostic & Integration
We didn’t just bolt things on. A full diagnostic scan was carried out before and after fitting to ensure seamless communication with the BCM and instrument cluster. Using VCDS and VCP, everything was coded properly. No warning lights. No limp mode. Just smooth performance.
The correct adaptations were made in the ECU and steering column module. We also updated firmware where needed to unlock full compatibility with the newer wheel.
Proper Removal & Clean Installation
The original steering wheel and airbag were removed using correct safety procedures. Wiring was routed through factory grommets and finished using Tesa loom tape for a neat, rattle-free result.
This isn’t just a retrofit—it’s a transformation. You get genuine Volkswagen functionality, professional coding, and a van that finally drives like it should have from new.
