I've had my 2015 Golf TDI S for about 4 years now and decided I want to bite the bullet and add ACC and Lane Assist/Blind Spot monitoring at a minimum. I've tried to do my research but still not finding an answer to whether or not I need a different ABS module to pull off the ACC. Any help from the forum would be greatly appreciated. According to VCDS, I have ABS module 3Q0907379C.

Thanks!

Your ABS module should be fine.
Either way I'd still install everything, worst case scenario the ABS isn't compatible and you just need to retrofit a new one which should be cheap and easy.

Agreed that your ABS should be fine... but disagree on ABS retrofit being easy, haha, quite annoying on the TDI due to the emissions equipment. ABS module has to be removed from below, through the exhaust tunnel.

That's a midline gateway. It won't have pins 7 and 17 which are CAN bus extended. All the retrofits you mentioned are on can bus extended.
