Can be done with VCDS afaik. Put the headlights into service mode, adjust them manually and then reset. On my mk5 Golf I just adjusted the height using the screw and had no issues however.
I need someone close by then who has VCDS. To give me a hand haha!Can be done with VCDS afaik. Put the headlights into service mode, adjust them manually and then reset. On my mk5 Golf I just adjusted the height using the screw and had no issues however.
Even us non RSQ3 owners lol!Happy New Year to all you Audi owners. (and bmw!)
Did you get the lights sorted Sam ??Hi all,
So, it’s not a massive issue. But I’m still having some small issues after getting my car back from the place that carried out all the repair work.
When it first came back, the headlights had been calibrated too low. So the car went back and they raised the calibration. So I thought great, all is fine now. However, over this Christmas period, I’ve been driving quite a lot on unlit country roads. Nearly every single driver flashes me! Thinking that I have my high beam on. It’s because my lights have now been calibrated too high! I’ve only just noticed since driving on these roads.
I really can’t be ***** with having them try and put it right for a third time. Does anyone know if I can get it done using VCDS? Or something like that?
Cheers,
Sam.
Didn’t go back as I’m really unsure! Should the lights be adaptive ? I still get the odd flash on country roads but only when it’s undulating and the car is up and down if you know what I mean.Did you get the lights sorted Sam ??
I’ve also done this on the Carista dongle. Did it as soon as I had the car, find the bleep noise is far too loud though! Have you done anything else to your car with the OBD eleven? It can only be used on android phones can’t it that?plugged my OBD eleven in again yesterday and gave car a check over, And added a "Bleep" on locking and unlocking, Now with keyless exit /entry I know its locked.
Yeah I’ve also done all of those.Ive done folding mirrors on locking, Boot close by key, and bleep on lock/unlock.
Does anybody know whether you can have the discs on these skimmed? I don’t really fancy forking out £550! They’re still okay but just want to know for later on this year when the MOT comes round and worst case scenario, I do have to have new front discs!
Cheers.
My car has just done 40k. I don’t think the discs have been changed before now. They’re not even that bad but I just wanted to do it for peace of mind as I plan on keeping this car now. There is only a slight lip. I might just get some Ebc yellow stuff pads.
Sorry I sound daft but how can I see this?There are 1mm deep dimples as well as the drilled holes. When the dimples are gone your discs are toast. Dimples=simples.
Good point chap! The MOT was only done in July last year and had no advisories at all and the car had done like 36k. So I’m only on 40k now so I can’t see them having changed much! I just wanted to do it for peace of mind if you can see where I’m coming from. The lip is only ever so slight. I think it would serve me well just going for the yellow stuff Ebc pads around MOT time and see what comes from the MOT itself.My car had done 38k when I bought it,there was quite a lip then,but as it was Audi used approved,they were swapped out as part of the deal. They refused,however,to replace the rear discs as they said,”they are only 70% worn,we replace at 80%! To be fair,there’s no lip on them at all worth mentioning,I only asked as the bells had started to corrode and look a bit crappy...worth a go I thought When I took it back for warranty work on the Haldex,the video report they sent me on the rest of the car said the rear discs were 30% worn......go figure,that kind of thing is why I never use main dealers for servicing,I’ve no faith. Anyway,as for your discs,it does sound like they are the originals,but wear limits,dimples,lips or not,if it passes the mot,why worry? I did think of going down the red stuff pad route myself to “preserve” the discs,but as I’d just had new oem discs & pads,why spend another few hundred pounds on pads & fitting? Thought I’d see how they worked out.

I don’t know what to do Haha!?I think the holes are the ones that don’t go thru the discs,if you can’t see them,I guess they’re flush with the disc face,which would show the discs are on the limit I guess Tbh,when I told the indy who looks after my car bout the wear limit,he just laughed and said,”don’t worry bout that,there will be plenty of life left in em even then”. I can totally see where you are coming from with yours,that’s why I thought of the red stuff pads,but I guess there’s a lot of stuff that’s recommended which isn’t actually needed? If it fails the mot,then that’s different. Let’s be honest,these brakes are like throwing an anchor out the window

I have done! They’ve been on my car but I’m now changing.Why don't you use them ??
Yes picked it up yesterday evening. It’s awesome to be honest chap, a lot different to the RSQ3.Have you got the RS3 now?? Hows it compare to the Q,
I’m all about that hot hatch life if I’m honest. Realised just how much I’d missed it when I drove it home.I sat in one, most ive had to do with 1, Just to low for me.
