How to activate the green menu on Audi MMI via VCDS

Model: Audi A4 B8 - Years 2007-2016
Part: Instrument cluster

Let's see how to activate the green menu on an Audi MMI using VCDS. We need to go to "select". The control unit to select is the 5F. Select "adaptations". The channel we are interested in is "06" or "development test mode". Enter "1" in the "new value" space and "verify value" and click on "save", it asks if we are sure. Confirm. We can exit. The MMI has turned off. Now we turn it back on and simultaneously press the "car" and "setup" buttons for 5 seconds. This will bring up the green menu. From here, it is possible to cause a lot of damage, so stick to what you can do from the "car" menu, especially the "cardevicelist" menu, and just look at the rest. When you have made a modification, a soft reset must be performed by pressing the three highlighted buttons in the video.
