A about a year ago (before ever using OBDeleven, actually) I cleared a check engine light in my 2021 Jetta GLI Autobahn 6MT using a generic OBDII BT adapter with the TorquePro app.
From that point onward, the behavior of the start button changed.
Prior, all I had to do was briefly tap the start button once and the starter would automatically turn over until the engine fired up. Now, I need to hold the start button down while the starter turns over until the engine fires.
I took it to the dealer and they opened a case with VW who in turn told them the button is functioning normally and there's nothing that can be done to change it back. This issue has come up in various VW forums and other places on the internet but there doesn't seem to be any kind of a fix. My assumption is that the issue must lie within the vehicle software somewhere because my dealer also replaced the starter button itself, but this resulted in no change.
I am curious if there are coding or adaptations within OBDeleven to change this back to the way it worked before??
