Power Steering Coding Help

1
Hi everyone!

I'm looking for help finding the correct coding for the electro-hydraulic power steering module on a 2011 Audi A1 8X.

Vehicle details:
  • Audi A1 8X
  • 2011
  • 1.4 TFSI (CAXA)
  • DSG
  • PR code 1N4
  • VIN: WAUZZZ8XBB060309

The original power steering pump/module (6R0 423 156 B) was defective, so unfortunately I was unable to communicate with it and could not
read the original coding before replacement.

I installed a remanufactured TRW JER162 unit which is identified by diagnostics as:
  • 6R0 423 156
  • Software version V272

The replacement unit came pre-coded as 10110.
With this coding I had a fault related to what I believe was the steering angle sensor and the steering system did not work correctly.
After some searching I found coding 11250 online. This coding is accepted by the module, the fault code disappeared and the power steering is now working without any stored DTCs.

However, the steering still feels noticeably heavier than I would expect, especially at low speeds.
Does anyone have access to the factory coding for this vehicle or know the correct coding for a 2011 Audi A1 8X 1.4 TFSI DSG with PR code 1N4 and power steering module
6R0 423 156 B?

I would also appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience with these TRW electro-hydraulic steering units and whether there are any additional adaptations or basic settings that should be performed after replacement.

Thanks in advance for any help.
