The Polarfis is a powerful plug-and-play device that transforms your VW or Audi’s Multi-Function Display (MFA) or Driver Information System (FIS) into a comprehensive vehicle data center. By tapping into the car’s CAN-BUS system via the Body Control Module, PolarFIS provides real-time access to over 40 critical vehicle parameters, eliminating the need for cluttered aftermarket gauges. This device offers a wealth of information, from real-time speed and engine vitals to detailed diagnostics, all conveniently displayed on your dashboard. Crucially, PolarFIS bypasses factory algorithms, delivering unfiltered data for accurate insights into your vehicle’s performance.
Why Choose PolarFIS? Real-Time Data and Enhanced Control
Unlike your car’s standard display, PolarFIS provides access to raw, unadulterated data, bypassing the smoothing and buffering often applied by factory settings. This real-time information is crucial for accurate monitoring and diagnosis, allowing you to identify potential issues before they escalate. The 2016 edition features a sleek black casing and extended KESSY range for vehicles with keyless entry and start. However, it’s important to note that this model is incompatible with 2011-2014 Jetta Sedans (S, SE, SEL, and TDI).
Beyond data display, PolarFIS unlocks hidden features and customization options:
- Video in Motion (VIM): Enable video playback on your stereo screen while driving.
- Bluetooth Compatibility: Seamless integration with OEM and Fiscon Bluetooth systems, creating a dedicated “Advanced PolarFIS” menu.
- Discreet Operation: The display can be turned off for service appointments and reactivated easily.
- Customizable Units: Choose between metric and imperial units for temperature, speed, and volume.
- Steering Wheel Control: Navigate menus and access information using your steering wheel controls.
