    CAN-Gateway upgrade

    Hello, I'm currently undertaking a DQ500 gearbox swap (from DQ250) From what I've been told the DQ500 is CAN-bus only rather than the additional K-line on the DQ250 so should be plug and play aslong as you have the pins all going to the rig ones I've had VCDS plugged in and it seems to...

    Single stage to dual stage airbag solution?...

    Hi Kyle, I didn't need to buy another slip ring but that could have been because of what slip ring I have as standard or it could just have been the bodgery of it all as there's no guarantee the airbag will deploy with this mod - I looked at trying to swap the airbag ecu but no idea if it would...

    Single stage to dual stage airbag solution?...

    Hello, I was thinking the other day about my mfsw swap and the airbag light being on. Is it not possible to buy an airbag module and have it coded to the car that is from an '06 onwards (dual stage airbag) car? and hopefully then the airbag will deploy as it should with no wire butchering...

    retrofit MFSW to A3

    Is it an 8L or 8P? I think (but its from memory) with the 8P,you need a slipring, the steering wheel and coding on vcds but if you have dsg paddles then you have the right slipring If you use google or search on here, it has been covered before HTH
