Hi, Got a problem. Recently had a new Can-bus adapter connected to my aftermarket head unit which now enables it to stay on until I remove the key. This now works fine however when I remove the key and the unit switches off there's an immediate zap sound which comes from the speakers. I had the...

Recently had a couple of issues fixed by Audi but a number of problems (which they created) have since arisen which they don't seem to have an idea as to how to fix just yet. This forum has a lot of knowledgable people so I'm hoping you guys can give me an idea as to what may have happened. I...

Ok, got a problem which has been annoying me for months and I'm hoping someone here has come across the same problem and found a resolution. I've got a Pioneer F10BT with the GPS installed under the dash of my A3. I'm finding that the vehicle location displayed on the nav is generally a...

hi, had some Focal 165VR splits and an amp installed and I'm finding the sound is not as loud as the OEM set up and not as punchy. I really need to turn up the sound on the head unit to get it to the level I usually have it on. Also noticed that if I fade the sound to the front so that only the...

Hi, got a pioneer head unit with bluetooth but the parrot microphone is something shocking, people can hardly hear me no matter the position of the mic. Wondering whether the Audi mic would fit into the pioneer head unit and are the any good and if so any cheap places to get them as ebay doesn't...

Hi, I've got a 2008 1.8TFSI DSG and noticed that on hot days the cars shifting is really bad. When accelerating from a standstill there is a big shunt (like a really bad manual change). Once moving it is OK but then again when coming to a standstill and stopped the cars revs bounce like its...

Hi, I have an A3 2007 and a couple of months ago I had a pioneer nav unit installed and I've had constant problems with radio reception. FM is Ok for the most part but tends to get interference from time to time but AM is really poor. There is constant buzzing/interference sound. Does anyone...

just saw this on vortex, are these pre-facelift? Also anyone able to transcribe here especially re cost and complexities? http://www.mobile01.com/topicdetail.php?f=286&t=1072177&p=1 cheers.

This might be a silly question but I've always wondered why the towing eye (at the back of the car) cannot be used to attach a bike carrier (for those that don't have a tow bar) or why a company hasn't designed one to work with it? I wouldn't imagine it being a strength issue if it is designed...

just wondering does a remapped car (on a performance setting) always use more fuel than a standard car. For example cruising down the motorway would if be using more fuel or does it only use more fuel when you really give it gas. can you have a chip only apply it's settings when in S (on a...

Just reading some info on the DSG on wikipedia and it mentions that when stationary it is recommended that N gear be engaged. I always just keep it in D. Does anyone else put it in N and is it really recommended? wikipedia: N position of the floor-mounted shift lever means that the...

Just wondering if anyone has had their A3 1.8TFSI remapped? I know it's a relatively "new" engine and I think Revo's the only one who has cracked the "code" and release a remap? I'd be interested to hear people's opinions as their isn't much available info on the forums

Hi, Just wondering if the two air vents on the dash connect to the window air vents? I'm looking at running a cable from the window to the dash. Do you think there would be any problems with this? Cheers.
