M-Track Mode

My only slight disappointment with M-track mode is that you can't use the fastest shifting parameters in SMG unless the DSG is fully disengaged.

d. If you don’t have a functional M-track symbol, and don’t want to solder the LED, set
“DTC_LAMPE” to “nicht_aktiv”
i. This will make the DSC system act like the non-M DSC where a single press
makes the DSC symbol light up, and a long press makes the DSC and Brake lights
turn on.

I have a 2003 (09/02 production) and it has the MK60 but my cluster doesn’t have the MDM light or even the symbol for it. Can I just buy a cluster from an 05/06 model and swap it out and have it work when i code track mode or is it not that simple? Does my cluster harness have the correct pins and wire for it etc?

i presume it's because it assumes you're on non-zhp oem calipers so it's calibrating abs accordingly. what would this mean for someone who is running a BBK. it isn't ZHP, but it's bigger/strong than regular non-zhp calipers...so should we leave the value at "typ_3"?
e.g. My brembos are slightly more front biased than stock, but my car is slightly front heavy shifting the bias rearward, so the non ZCP setting should be pretty perfect for my car.
A properly set up bbk shouldn’t feel “stronger”.

To clarify, you don't need to retrofit the light. If you don't have it, you code it so that single press brings up the center yellow circle/triangle with exclamation point (M Track Mode) and long press adds the "BRAKE" light to indicate that DSC is fully off.

There is a light in the cluster - in some cars its disabled and it can be enabled, in others it has to be retrofit. That arrow/cricle on the left. You can do the cluster test to see if you have it. And I believe if you do the cluster test and you do have the light that also means you have the MK60.

I looked into doing this on my car, but the cost just for parts was around $1k, so I decided that it wasn't worth it. I've also read a couple of threads that say the MK20 module is less intrusive and thus comparable to M-Track mode, but I have no clue if that is true or not. Also, I'm not sure how this claim could be quantified.

Might be the one situation where it's actually advantageous to have a RHD car.
