6R0 937 087 AB / AD / AE? I don't know, ask in drive2 or Team-BHP, these BCMs High are currently sold for the 6R-family in Russia, Malaysia and India.
I have searched, but this info is not available, you should ask some owner with VCDS to check the installation list in the GW.
Yes Master, it would be really interesting to find a bcm high model having 65 address in GW installation list. Another thing is that my car came fitted with cruise control on left stalk. Then we have to find a bcm high model which supports both TPMS and CC. :roll:

I will try to get help from drive2 and other forums. Inputs from Firegrafik and benzinkopf might throw some light. :lol:
Hi ,
my car is a seat toledo and has High BCM 6R0937087R instaled.
It shows address 65 as available in the instalation list.

On the other hand i read that you had problems activating Direct TPMS with BCM High so you forced to change it with BCM Max.
So I am pretty convinced that mine won't work too. Do you know if BCM Max 7H0937090D would have worked ?
I am trying to find a cheaper alternative to work with some other retrofits because 7E0 is way too expensive even used right now.

Hello til3tsio.. welcome!

My understanding is this:

Even though few BCM High have address 65 in gateway installation list, for eg 6R0 937 087R, 6R0 937 087AD etc.. they won't support Direct TPMS. Internal gateway of these BCM is not capable of relaying tpms data to cluster, even though it perfectly reads all the information ( tyre pressures, sensor id, position, temperature etc..) received from tpms module. I verified this by checking in VCDS advanced measuring values in address 65.

Hence need BCM Max 7E0 937 090B/C/D/E or 7H0 937 090D. Please note that 7E0 937 090 BCM Max doesn't has address 65 in gateway installation list!


I believe that these BCM Max mentioned above have superior internal CAN gateway both in terms of hardware and software, which supports Direct tpms on compatible clusters.

Tip: You can buy 7E0 BCM Max at a relatively affordable price from Russia. :wink:


I hope this helps you..))

It helps a lot, thanks. :D
I have bought a used tpms module and connected it temporary today just to check if it was working.
Needless to say that nothing came up to my instruments cluster, so you are correct.
If you have any suggestions where to look for a bcm I would appreciate it.

My IC SW version is stock 805 iichel.

I had thought of upgrading it to 1xxx sometime back for RTA, but after installing BSA radars, the RTA menu appeared automatically along with blind spot menu in cluster and also Park assist menu after installing 1K8 module.

If you enable Byte21 Bit6, channel 25 goes from 0 to 1.
I think I remember making the parking lights (Bixenon Headlights LED modules) work with the brightness of the DRLs, I'm not sure.
I think I remember that in combination with Byte12 Bit0 (which enables the 4 parking/side lights permanently -Scandinavian lights-) a new function was achieved in my xenon headlights that I don't remember now ... (I wrote it in a forum post that I can't find now :lol: )

You'll have to do some research ... please inform us of your findings.
A hug.🤗🙏

edit...
I have verified that some VW T6 (PQ25) have it activated.

Master Namaste🙏

Did some tests with BCM adaptation channel:25 ( dual side parking lights.)

I activated byte21, bit6.. nothing out of ordinary happened. I did play with Byte13 bit 1 and 2 , and also Byte12, bit1.

Here are my observations:
1. Activating Byte12, bit1 activates both front& back park lights with ignition ON.

2. Byte 13, bit 1&2 are interesting. I had both bits activated before test.

If Byte13,bit1 disabled, bit2 activated, one side park/ side lights with stalk still work.

If in Byte13 both bit1&bit2 disabled.. one side park lights with stalk stop working.

Interestingly, if byte13, bit1 is activated after initial deactivatation, then byte21, bit6 automatically gets activated( channel 25 goes from 0 to 1 )

I think Byte13, bit1 and byte21, bit6 are somehow related, thats all I found after doing tests.

May be my tests results are not definitive as I did tests on my aftermarket headlights and tail lights. :mrgreen:

I think its better to test these bytes/bits with OE headlights to unravel the mystery behind it. I will put back my OE halogen headlights and tail lights in free time and the tests again and report back. :wink:

I guess you'll need to bribe a moderator for that.
