When you add rear speakers, you then Can code it with VCDS to make the fader appearIn my T6 I think I only have 2 speakers wired to the standard head unit one in each door. When looking through the settings in the stereo I noticed there doesn’t seem to be a fader option to move sound to rear speakers.
Can rear speakers be added to the standard head unit with front/ rear fader?
I have sat nav and reverse camera. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯️
Cheers
Hi Deaky, I found Module 5F but cannot see "byte 4" or how to access it/show 4 speakers. Do you have any additional wisdom to share with me regarding how to find byte 4? I started wondering if the stock head unit in the T6.1 even has the fader option, I was going around in circles last night trying to find what seemed like a unicorn. Thanks, MarkModule 5F byte 4. Change it from 2 channels/4 speakers to 4 channels/ 6 speakers.
Those instructions are for T6, I'm not sure on how it's done on T6.1Hi Deaky, I found Module 5F but cannot see "byte 4" or how to access it/show 4 speakers.

From memory there is a capacitor across the terminals of the OEM tweetersNo-one?
Yeah, there is. Does that effectively reduce the range enough that you just wire them on the same channels?From memory there is a capacitor across the terminals of the OEM tweeters
Yes it acts as a basic high pass filter across the tweeters.Yeah, there is. Does that effectively reduce the range enough that you just wire them on the same channels?
The stock T6.1 h/u has fader function, the discovery unit appears to be causing fader activation issuesHi Deaky, I found Module 5F but cannot see "byte 4" or how to access it/show 4 speakers.

Hi,
Hoping someone can help....
I have the latest Discover Media Unit (MY2021) and I'm trying to activate the rear fader for some sound, as the fadar looks to be default front only at present - no rear sound :-(.
I fitted some rear speakers (2 way focal 165 AC - 4 ohm) and wired them to the spare Channel 1 and 4 outputs on the quadlock - in glove box - with correct pins.
I have adapted channels 1 HT and TT, Channels 4 HT and TT from Inactive to Active - but still no sound nor fader - I suspect due to B106813/B106613 Fault codes present (RR & RL Treble speaker O/C).
Adapting Just Ch 1 TT and 4 TT - leaving 1 and 4 HT active - results fault free - but no sound. Interestingly, when clearing faults - I do get a (momentary - one second ish) noise from all front and rear speakers.
I've read a fair bit on the rear fader ctrl being a little hit and miss/difficult with new units, though hoping that I may have a simple case of wrong impedance here (the 2 way focals).
Tempted to upgrade the front's any case and test the fronts in rear (guess in series) or do I simply need some specific rear speakers to satisfy HT and TT channels?
Grateful if anyone can help.

Just wanted to say thank you @Deaky - I used this advice with a local VAG specialist and their VCDS and it helped me out. Much appreciated and will make journeys in the T6 with the kids much more bearable. - all the bestModule 5F byte 4. Change it from 2 channels/4 speakers to 4 channels/ 6 speakers.
