Using v3 (latest version)  
Using a bub engine in 2011 scirocco mk3 so  
Still pq platform  
Mk5 r32 Dsg gearbox  
Can keypad for gear shifter emulation  
Cannot start the car as it says put the car in P or N on the dash.  
Dash shows in P as does emu when looking at logging for Dsg

Holding brake pedal doesn’t make any difference, brake pedal shows as pressed ok in emu software

Anyone have any ideas? I don’t want to have to fit a oem shifter to resolve this ideally

When you install V3 3.047 there is a directory Base maps and base map for Audi R32 BUB  
You can use it as reference.

There could be a problem with the coding between your car and your DSG.  
In VW car it is very tricky to swap components between cars.

However with black this message should prevent the engine from start and the gearbox from work.

Pretty sure it’s down to the car coding. Does the original ecu need to be connected to do a usb2can scan to get the coding? Is there any other way to find this as the car is already converted and wired with emu

You can try to power on the OEM ECU on the bench and just read the CAN.

However there could be coding conflict between DSG and the car.

I’ll try that. Thanks  
Shouldn’t be any conflict as the Dsg was a option in the car also, it ran fine on standard ecu for the r32

So the DSG you have installed worked with the OEM ECU in this car ?

Only with emu and trying to emulate shifter I’ve had issues

</div>

So if you have good coding it should work.  
What are youre DSG settigns in EMU BLACK ?

What errors DSG reports via VCDS ?

Haven’t had time  
To bench the ecu yet

Just to make sure. Did the gearbox work properly with the Scirocco ECU ?

Go to the menu/Tools, select option VW coding and select file scirocco.txt.  
The following window appears:

As you press Yes it will automatically fill out the coding and other DSG options.

Ok but why you cannot start the engine ?  
Can you send a log from emu cranking ?
