N57 with 6hp works only on Manual, n54 with 6hp paddles won't work at all.

This car has N52N engine not N54 or N57

So You should mention that in first place, we are not magical minds readers. So with with n52 probably same situation as n54, paddles won't work at all.

Hi on bїшшёяfest there is a topic where they change resistors on the paddle electronic board. After they changed the resistor value it seemed to work.

I can see change when pressed paddles on SZL but could not show on Instrument cluster
