    SQ5 Keyless theft protection??

    Just came across this: Choice of 2nd vehicle made me decide to share here!! Interesting solution. Not sure about the double tap thing tbh! Anyone done this yet? Or similar? FYI. I have no affiliation with anyone in, or connected, to this video. And while it could all be 'smoke and mirrors'...

    New A1 Audi Connect Connection

    We’ve got an S-line 30. Great little car. Considering the 3-cylinder 1.0 engine, it goes ok. Handling is reasonable although ride a little harsh at times. Seats and equipment pretty good too. We’ve gone for the B&O which we think is worth it.

    SD Card

    @J4CK You can format your SD card on your Mac then drag’n’drop files (MP3, etc) on to it either in folders, which the car recognises, or just all at the top level. On your Mac you will have an application called Disk Utility. You can use this to reformat the SD card in the right format which...

    SQ5 2018 SQ5

    Yeah, checked just after I read your post. Nothing I could find. I assume it will show on the app not just web site? Edit: just checked there too; nothing showing.

    SQ5 2018 SQ5

    @q5man do you know which vehicles the recalls impact? We took delivery August last after really lengthy delays but I believe yours it a bit older?

    New A1

    @KenL Cheers. Wasn’t 100% on the contrast roof at first but actually gives the car a unique look.

    New A1 Audi Connect Connection

    Actually quite nice the A1 has the same SOS and breakdown buttons in the headlining as the SQ5, so I guess the connect bits use the same SIM/data connection.

    New A1 Audi Connect Connection

    Its’s not me, it’s you. After a couple of call to Audi UK customer service it turns out I (the car) needs a software reset at the dealer. There should be a ‘Key User’ option under the users section but there isn’t! They have sent me a reset for the Audi lads to use when I take it in. Without...

    New A1

    @KenL Bits of the doors are 'hard, scratchy' plastic as are some elements of centre console, but I tend to drive cars rather than scratch plastic panels with my finger nails. Yes the quality isn't right up there, but it's pretty good on the whole, especially for the cash. As requested...

    New A1 Audi Connect Connection

    @GroundZeroUK You're right, the full Connect -Weather, news, etc. - does come only in the Tech pack, but all I am looking to do is link up with MyAudi so I can use the app to check location and if its locked, etc., which is standard.

    New A1 Audi Connect Connection

    Picked up new A1 yesterday, but cannot see the Audi Connect section - to set up key user etc -in the MMI. Dealer 'registered' the car with the service yesterday, and while I guess there's probably a few new vehicles going through the system, I wouldn't have thought it would take that long to...

    New A1

    @Daz4311 We didn't go for the Tech Pack - a rip off for in-built nav and a bigger screen (and virtual cockpit I guess) so we're planning on using phone apps - Apple Maps, Google Maps or Waze.

    New A1

    Picked up the car yesterday and quite impressed. Wifey drove it home; it definitely seemed quite nippy and she was beaming when we got in. Went out with lad driving - first time he’s driven since passing and I was a very nervous passenger with only 55 miles on the clock!! We survived! Just...

    SQ5 Washer woes

    @RS3 S. ours lives on the drive too just because our garage is full of junk!! Currently in at dealer - sent me a nice video of what they found - apparently a stopper plug has gone so they need to replace the whole rear camera washer feed?!? Car should be done Monday but until then I ‘enjoying’...
