Some folks I trust did NOT recommend going to 2Q0980653C. The camera I have (picked up a couple years ago, just never got around to the install) is 2Q0980653 which they said is fine. I was advised not to go past 653B if I'm feeling the itch to update.You've got me looking at sourcing parts . Since there is on-road calibration, is the donor vehicle much of a concern? Not sure if it would be better to try to get a camera from an Arteon vs an Atlas as an example since parameters won't exist for the Golf.
Passat B8.5 parameters were recommended to me.
Just scrolled through MIB solution and there's software all the way up 653g now, not sure what that's coming installed in these days. I think 5WA cameras are on the MK8 (and other MQB-Evo stuff) and I haven't read of those being retrofit (yet, maybe). I'll ask around and see if any of those higher 653x firmwares are recommended.
More edits. If it's something you care about, there are data sets that allow 60+ seconds of Lane Assist without needing to tug the wheel. The 60+ datasets are available for pretty much every 3Q0 software version.
I have MK8 steering wheel with touch sensors. So with 2Q0 camera I'll be able to use those which means Lane Assist will only require keeping my hands on the wheel but not giving it tug every 10 or whatever seconds. For 2Q0 (in a car without touch sensors) the only 60+ dataset is for the Teramont (Atlas) with 653C.
