Hey, the start/stop system disable customizations are bit strange on the B9. Because Audi haven't exposed a way to permanently disable it via coding, we use a well-known hack, which gets coded in the car's HVAC ECU. The hack basically "tells" the HVAC to "tell" the start/stop system not to engage. Therefore it stops working after you've turned your HVAC system completely off. See whether the start/stop system will still work while your HVAC is on.
Surely that's a bit pointless as many of us like to drive with our windows partially open (provided its not too hot/cold outside)? To those of you who have successfully managed to deactivate start/stop using the Carista app, can you confirm the start/stop system still kicks in when the cars' air con/heat is OFF?
Hello all. Long time reader.
Rather than make a new thread I thought I'd ask in here as it's relevant.
I am struggling to get my ODBeleven to connect to a new MY18 S4 (build week 21).
I get the "make sure your ignition is turned on" message. Then it indicates it's connected but isn't - as nothing works. Basically identical issue to this: //forum.obdeleven.com/thread/849/2016-q7-make-ignition-turned reported in 2016.
Just wondering if anyone else had this and managed to get a workaround or fix for it - it's suggested the B9 isn't compatible?
I've contacted ODB11 anyway as I bought some credits for the mods I wanted.
My Cupra had no issues and I've also used it on a MY18 GTI and a MY17 GTD - so happy the dongle and app itself are ok.
Nice one @TC18, you beat me to it
I will dig my dongle out and send the debug data, and update this thread....don't hold me to a quick turnaround, as manic at the moment
This is the email:

Hi there!
We've recently made some improvements on the debug data collection process for Audi MLBevo cars (Audi Q7 2015-, Audi A4 2015-, Audi A5 2015-, Audi Q5 2017-, Audi A7 2017-, Audi A8 2017-, Audi A6 2018-, VW Touareg 2018-, Audi Q8 2018- (also a Lamborghini, a Porsche and a Bentley)).
We would like to ask you to send debug data from your vehicle again so we could test the new implementation. After that, you'll be added to the beta version so you could try out the new customizations that we've implemented.
To send debug data, please follow the instructions from the last item in the link below:

Thanks in advance!

I enabled the TSR a few days ago, I don't see the menu or anything different on the VC / MMI screen. I've let them know through feedback.Quick update for anyone interested..
They have now added Traffic Sign Recognition, although the menu is there it isn’t reading any signs. It’s a beta and they’ve only just added it so hopefully a bug fix comes out soon.
High Beam assist has been added, although I haven’t had a chance to try it yet.
Lap timer, needle sweep is working.
They haven’t added lane guidance yet. I’m not sure they will though as to use it how it’s attended would require a stalk change out at least.

Did you test enabling beeps when locking / unlocking the vehicle? It's enabled and set through Carista but my car doesn't do it. Might have to pop out VCDS to do it and see what's going on
Edit: I googled it, looks like the camera needs to be flashed with VCP for TSR.. Nevermind then.
Awesome, thanks.I haven’t done the beep when locked, il give it a go tomorrow.
Regarding TSR, the menu for it is under the drivers info screen on the VC, where the date and time is, scroll down to the bottom and you’ll see it’s “menu”.
I thought as you enabled it, that it would flash the camera? I’ve provided feedback to them but it’s only beta 2 they’ve only just added TSR so il wait til the next update.
Awesome, thanks.
I don't get that come up for TSR despite enabling all five options, so I think the camera hasn't been "parametised" (that's what I've read on other threads anyway).
You can do it but it won't work. You need a specific sensor fittedAny update on activating the ‘G’ meter that’s on the RS4?
TSR menu is coming up on the VC now (haven't made any changes). It's not recognising any speed signs though, nor is it providing any fallback speed limit from the navigation data.
I only get options for steps 3 to 5 for the TSR. Anybody else’s like that?
I haven't checked for any fault codes, but I suspect I'll likely have the same one as what you've mentioned. If I remember, I'll check in the morningI’m having exactly the same issue. It generates a fault code under ‘body and convenience’.
Seems like I have the same code(s). Could you confirm whether they're the same as yours?
Sorry for the late reply. I was getting both fault codes for the body and convenience at the start. However after clearing them I was only getting the code ending in o7 consistently.
I have never had the driver assist codes. I have reported the codes to Carista. Hopefully there’s an update next week, after that I don’t think il have much need for it after that, as I was only after MBA and TSR.
Passenger mirror selected with the mirror switch?I have used the Carista app this morning and have successfully installed the auto high beam and needle sweep. I tried to do the traffic sign recognition( I have the camera on the windscreen) and it said it worked. I get a message on the DIS saying no traffic signs recognised even when driving past signs - any ideas?
I also tried to add the passenger mirror dip but this didn't work - again any suggestions?
Known bug, few of us have the same issue with TSRI have used the Carista app this morning and have successfully installed the auto high beam and needle sweep. I tried to do the traffic sign recognition( I have the camera on the windscreen) and it said it worked.

That's really odd, thankfully my stop stop was disabled just fine.I’ve just seen that they have released another beta, hopefully this addresses the TSR.
On a side note, I’d be very careful with what you change in the app, and make sure you remember what you change. I turned a family members start/stop off on a car that isn’t involved in the beta testing. That one simple change stopped the high beams from working, rear wiper and the PDC. The start/stop still worked though. ‘Re—activating’ put the car back to normal but it goes to show how sensitive these things are.
I’m starting to wonder if that’s why my electronic tailgate ‘close and lock’ button has stopped working.
not sure if you need to have the folding mirrors for this to work...?Passenger mirror selected with the mirror switch?
Yes you donot sure if you need to have the folding mirrors for this to work...?
It can require a additional module, however if you've folding mirrors then the passenger one will dip anyway as this is a standard feature with that option. Always has been the case with the B9...not sure if you need to have the folding mirrors for this to work...?
