    Hidden Diagnostic Screen?

    I read in an oldish thread about a hidden screen that allowed access to diagnostics such as battery volts, among other things.

    You simply need to press near the top of the home page on the touch screen and then enter a code.

    Does anyone know if this or similar is available on newer models? I have an MY14 D4 and the mentioned steps to access the hidden screen don't seem to work.

    Cheers,
    Scott

    I have a MY15 so may be different too. I can get to the system details by holding my finger on the Valet button until it appears (takes at least 10 seconds). If I tried holding my finger on the middle top of the homepage nothing happens. My understanding is that if you do get this diagnostic screen up the code to use is 753.

    Holding the valet button for 10 sec with the car running I get an E-Mode menu with a raft of selections?

    Yes the diagnostics screen can be accessed on a MY14 d4 by holding down the valet button for approx 30 seconds.

    Doesn't seem to be too many useful diagnostics (that I could find anyway). I was hoping for engine or drivetrain stats & battery stats. Mostly just related to the touchscreen itself. Did I miss something?

    Also, scared myself with "Touch screen test" button. Whole screen went white and when pressed you only get little dots. Then it wouldn't
    go away back to normal !! The missus is going to kill me. Turned it off and back on ..... Still all blank. Eventually managed to get rid of it by double-tapping screen. All back to normal now.

    Cheers,

    I used to play with my screen a few years ago,
    Best feature was leaving on the reversing camera,
    But once you turned off the ignition it defaulted back to normal screen functions
    again.
