    Q5 Installing a dashcam, how did you do the rear?

    I made the mistake of telling my neighbour about my dashcam and how I had fitted it in this car and previous ones. Unfortunately this led to him asking me to install one in his daughter‘s Q5. We got the front camera in ok, but the rear seems to be a bit of a ballache. if it was my own car I’d be...

    Problems with Retrofitted 360 Cameras.

    I've had the 360 cameras retrofitted to my B9 A5, unfortunately the driver's side camera displays back to front. The fitter has said I might need a new Control Module, but at £600+vat its a big gamble as they're not 100% sure it is going to fix it. Anyone got experience of this? Cheers all!

    All In Warranty.

    Anyone used the warranty with the all in package yet? What did you get done? Or did they let you down and not cover something you felt they should?

    LHD Wing Mirrors.

    I’ve massively ballsed up, I bought electric folding wing mirrors with the 360 cameras. I didn’t realise they were LHD and the seller just said they were compatible when I asked. Does anyone know if the body internals can be swapped out so the mirrors can be adjusted for optimal visibility? I...

    Can you recommend a retrofitter?

    Happy Sunday! I’ve purchased folding wing mirrors with surround view, just need to find someone that can fit and code it all for me. Think I’ve got a couple of parts missing so someone that can source the right parts will be good too, or at least tell me what I need to find. Looking around the...

    B9 satnav settings.

    My satnav takes me down little country lanes when there is a better route on a main road. My old A5 would have taken me down the main road. what settings do I need to avoid lanes and dirt tracks where possible? The manual was unhelpful.

    Setting Destination in the App.

    I've set destination in the App and then sent to the car, I get a success message. But then there's nothing on the car, should it just have the destination set as soon as I get in the car?

    Have you got/will you get, the extended warranty?

    I’ve had my 2017 A5 for a couple of months now and starting to consider the warranty. My last couple of Audis haven’t been all that kind to me. Everything on this new car feels like it’ll be really expensive to fix. Seems to be about £7-800. Do you guys avoid, or go for it?

    Passenger Wing Mirror Won’t Adjust.

    The passenger wing mirror won’t adjust on my A5, it heats up and folds ok. Have taken the glass out and everything looks fine. There’s no noise from the motor when trying to adjust. I’ve got an error reader and can’t find anything that looks related. Which module should I be looking at? Any...

    Dashcam stopped working whilst hardwired.

    My dashcam stopped working mid-journey, plugged it into the cigarette lighter socket and it works fine. Took the power magic apart and everything looks ok, nothing burnt out. Checked the fuses and all ok. Bought a new power magic and still nothing. Not sure what to test next. Any ideas?

    I want to buy a code reader, don't need to be able to do anything serious. Just read and clear reliably. Ideally from amazon. Cheers.

    Cam Chain Service

    My A5 had new pistons as part of the consumption fix, would they have changed the cam chain as part of the work? There's nothing on the worksheet about it. If not what sort of price should I expect to pay? It's a 2.0tfsi. Cheers
