PDC over CAN was the way I'd assume it would work. There is a tick box in VCDS on the Audi module for 'electric tailgate present'. If I get chance tonight I'll try some different coding.
Hazzydayz will fit an OEM electrictailgate, not sure on 6.1 but on a T6 the tailgate needs replacing too. The cost is eyewatering. There are aftermarket kits that you can fit for a lot less money such as autoeeze Power Liftgate Retrofit
There are a few on here who have gone this route.
You need to run a wire from the tailgate module to the PDC module and add a couple of relays. I haven’t been able to get this to work, could possibly be to do with needing some parameterisation of the tailgate module or PDC module...
Take a look at the basic equipment and convenience systems. These will cover the rear wiper and heated screen and the central locking. Make sure to look for the models with tailgate variants. These will give you the connection points of all the rear lid electrics which you can trace back to...
As far as I know there is no coding or settings for the soft close unit. The actual door lock in the tailgate is responsible for flicking the door open to start the rams. There are a few settings in central electrics relating to the rear lid lock mechanism. It sounds to me like the soft close...
The struts are what open the tailgate, you can't change them. It does state that Version 2 is compatible with an electrictailgate so you should be OK. It wont lift with bikes attached though.
...They are connected now but don't seem to be communicating with the tailgate module.
I'd be eternally grateful if anybody with factory fitted electrictailgate and access to VCDS could provide me with the following coding and adaptation maps
09 Cent. Elect.
10 Park/Steer Assist
6D Trunk Elect.

I’m going straight from work. Guess I’ll be there around 5:30 so I’ll grab some food then and maybe a power nap before you all come drooling over my lighty up mods :cry: :whistle:
Like the others say M’laud, gutted for you. I’d definitely be fitting a new tailgate that could be fitted with...
