I fitted some nice bright LED reversing light bulbs to my Facelift Avant last week.
They are the CANBUS friendly type, so I don't get any bulb warnings, however I noticed to day that when the ignition is on, and the car is not in reverse the flicker on every so often. Is there any way to stop this, or am I better off just going back to filament bulbs?
 
I have the same with number plate LED . Car is sending an impulse to check if all bulbs are working . Cant be switched off

Number plate bulbs could be changed to the genuine Audi version then you will be OK.

With the reversing bulbs you either need to find a better quality LED that does not have this problem or go back to filament.

Unfortunately bulb checking cannot be switched off.
 
Same here, mate.
Fitted mines and was happy no error showed up until start staring at them to admire the work. They do flick from time to time and independently.
Do not have any resistor but got the feeling it wouldn't help.
And again the same story with fogs. Done the wicked bulbs, fitted resistors and ... they flash together every 30 seconds:blink:
Can't do anything to it. Just live with it
