    Lowering springs & shocks

    Hi all Have a 2013 2.0 TDI. Lowered it with -35mm h&r springs a few years ago now. Been fine until recently. Unfortunately the standard shocks have given up. Was inevitable really. Im in the market to upgrade again. I'm happy with the drop from the h&r's so assuming the springs are in good...

    Wanted Key coding/programming

    May need a new key for my car. Anyone on here able to code and program the immobiliser chips. Would ideally like to avoid getting bent over by a main dealer for the privilege of having a spare. Cheers Sent from my motorola one using Tapatalk

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Yea. Few options. I did it all from the top. Very awkward but managed in the end. £42 is a good find. Does it work now then? Sent from my motorola one using Tapatalk

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Don't need to remove the bumper. The headlight moves out of the way enough to get your hand in and around the back to locate and plug it in. Fiddly but once you've worked it out it saves you having to take the bumper off. Sent from my motorola one using Tapatalk

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Hi mate. Searched high and low but cannot find the invoice. It's jogged my memory though. I had it diagnosed at a garage. Half hour labour. Bought the part myself as I've got a trade account with TPS and changed it myself. Sorry. I've had another kid since then and my brain is mush. Mine was...

    Q5 Faulty DRL

    Had to put it into the garage and they diagnosed the led module itself. That's not the control module but the part that actually emits the light. Unfortunately iirc it's the most expensive part. I'll dig the receipt out tomorrow afternoon for you and double check Sent from my motorola one...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Been a few months with these on the car now. They seem to be working fine after a few teething issues. One other problem has appeared. I did my first night drive last week and the levels for the lights are all over the place. I've tried connecting with vcds to '55 headlight range' but these no...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Seems I spoke too soon. Drove to work this morning and the dash lit up. DRL/tail & brake light errors. DRLs and brake lights worked but the tails didn't. So I guess my initial test was correct. Basically back where I started now. I can get everything working just not together. I'd rather not...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Been out and had another go. Not sure if I missed something but I now have everything working. Yet to test drive but a quick walkround and everything seems in working order. So the two options pictured will allow DRLs from mmi and the headlight switch. The xenons power up and the indicators...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Should also mention that if you turn the DRLs on via the mmi and they come on, then turn the headlight switch to sidelights the DRLs go out. If you turn the headlights on the DRLs flicker. I'm happy everything is working just something wrong with the coding? Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    A little progress. Got the headlights fitted this weekend. Was surprised that they came out without having to remove the bumper which was nice. I'm having issues with the coding tho. Byte 14 bit 3 checked Byte 17 bit 2 checked The problem I now have is in the light setup. Obviously I only...

    Q5 Manually folding power fold mirrors??

    If it was a retrofit it was done in its first 3 years and it also included lane assist as I have the lights on the inside of the mirrors and the button on the stalk. I suppose I could check it's build code? Or ask Audi what options were ordered with the vehicle. Either way I'll grab a...

    Q5 Manually folding power fold mirrors??

    I'll have a look but it was an approved used from Audi. With that in mind I wonder if the correct window switch would reinstate the function if I simply plugged one in? Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk

    Q5 Manually folding power fold mirrors??

    Right guys and gals I need your help. Having searched through endless retrofit and non related folding mirror threads I still can't find my answer. I have a 2014 '64 Q5 sline plus. I have power fold mirrors. They fold when car is locked. They unfold when key is in the ignition. I have the...

    Q7 Q7 2014 Sports edition headlamp LEDs not working

    Prob just the module which houses the led has stopped working. A simple scan with vcds should highlight the issue. I'd suspect that the case. Mine went on my Q5 and it was a about £160 for the part. Managed to change it myself and saved a similar bill to what you've been quoted. I'd certainly...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Not yet mate. Waiting on a new bulb as the guy I bough my light from had the wrong one in there. If that unit works when I plug it in I'll move onto the bcm wiring. I'm hoping the wires are long enough to move and don't need extending an re soldering. Guess if I remove enough of the fabric...

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    we appear to have the same part number which is promising.

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    Yea mate. Mines a 63 plate as well. Hoping it's got the right one in. Save me some time of it has. I'll get the scan up anyway. Should get round to fitting them in the next week or so. If not it might highlight the issue beforehand Sent from my LG-H850 using Tapatalk

    Xenon retrofit to a1

    I guess so. They've replied. Apparently it's an updated loom which doesn't carry the additional wires but you perform a wire location swap at the bcm instead. Next mission is to determine if the BCM will accept the xenons or if I'll need a different unit. Does anyone know for certain which part...
