    Upgrading a A4 08 chorus to incl ami

    Wondered if anyone could give me a bit of advice on this. I've got the chorus system on my A4 B8 2008 and have the aux input in the centre console but don't have the small rectangular connector in the glovebox. TBH I cant afford the £300 ish for the full retrofit kit and I'm wondering if there...

    Activated the cornering lights using the app, spent the last few days waggling the steering wheel while in queues for lights and trying to see them turn on in the reflection of the car in front... Love it.

    Pretty much did exactly the same as you, great minds and all that. :) I did ry on my mates MK4 Golf yesterday but it was a year too early so it didn't allow any customisations by it did collect fault codes. Still a very useful app hopefully they will extend the customise options at some point.

    I didn't see the dvd lock but as I don't have it I don't know if the scan would pick it up etc. MODS: If the like breaks rules etc please remove. I just searched and read the reviews, not selling them myself honest. :)

    Carista App

    Damn that sucks, I did look around to see if any other apps had the same functionality but haven't found anything yet. One thing I did see is that if you have Torque running in the background it might interfere with another app trying to connect, might be worth killing all the apps on your...

    Carista App

    Just downloaded it and had a play. Seems pretty good I enabled the Needle sweep and the chirp on locking the car. for £15 for the dongle and the same for the software I'd say it's pretty good value.

    O/S front door lock not working off fob

    Had the same problem on the passenger front door, luckilly my car is still under warrantly but I did the same thing on a MK4 Golf, a complete pain in the backside and after I'd finished it I swore I'd never do it again. Does seem like its a weakness with VAG group cars.
