So lets go step by step. 

1. First thing you have to do, is to remove airbag. 

Now when you released the airbag disconect yellow plug and remove airbag. 

Now you need to unscrew one bolt, and you will be able to remove steering wheel 

IMPORTANT:  Make sure that your steering wheel was in center position, (you can easily check because there is one marking so you can match them)

Next step, remove the cover to gain acces to the steering wheel module. There are two screws, remove them to gain access. 

Beneath the Clockspring is the electronic module (with the yellow sticker on it), which the Clockspring plugs into.

On the right side of the electronic module are two black plastic clips. You need to unlatch them with a small flathead screwdriver to release the electronic module below, causing it to drop and detach from where the Clockspring is plugged into it on the front right side (where the yellow sticker is in the 2nd picture). 

Now you can remove steering wheel module gently. 

It is the same procedure with both MFSW. To put everything in the place just do the reverse from what you did when you took whole thing apart. :) 

After you are done, the only thing is to code new steering wheel comands.

Go to VCDS,

1. Find STERING WHEEL

2. Now select CODING

3. Now LONG CODING HELPER

4. Now code your MFSW, if you want mute option on PTT(push to talk button) enable bit 3. 

Now, all you have to do, is to try it. 

* IMPORTANT

If you have wiper stalk with trip computer button, you have to disable it, because it will cause confusion for you module. So, disabled it, and choose option - no board computer over wiper stalk or something like that, you'll know it when you find it. :) 

* Notice for some cars, coding can be different. It could be, that you will have numbers that you have to eneter, but that is not hard at all. If you need help, you can contact me: kimi207@hotmail.com
