On coming sorry.

I dont know if its these new matrix lights or what but lately at night I feel like im blinded and need to put my fogs on to see side of the road. (I live in sticks) and I have a Q4 etron non matrix

So! I have standard, bro in law Bose. I am not a sound guy though, if you where the direction and position of spears would have your out with the MDF and carbon fibre. Its really down to how you like it and what you listen to. If you are after base then a sub in the boot is it really going to do much. I would say as a guy who owns Bose head phones just go standard. There is too much emphases put into it. Just stick a Harmon sticker on them no one will know 🙂 Sorry I didnt fully read your post. 100% not worth going to breakers and doing DIY job. Go to a show room and get in a new yoke, you wont even notice bar sound isolation. I wear in ears now too as you dont have to listen to Peppa pig on repeat!

Question, is this just with the fob or key in door too? Reason I ask is want to know is power getting to the door. I have replaced my window regulator and motor alot in VW/Audi's its a crime!

"If it was a horse it would be in the glue factory" Cheers Da!

And also sorry to anyone who finds this in google looking a fix for one of these codes! I will clear and see what comes back

HI Everyone, Sorry no reply but had to wait to weekend. So Good news, new battery is fitted and coded.... Was a bit of a ball ache as Yuasa batteries do not come with the usual stickers. For others coding all you really need is the battery size and the serial. The serial is on the top sticker. I saw some say peal that sticker off but in mine it was not there. Got it form halfords. I did notice car was set for like a 94 battery when it was a 80 and I put in a 80. It was a napa battery which I thought was only in America so it must have been changed at one point. Also for make Napa was JCB I just put mine as unknow. It shouldn't matter. Also, my treated tank of fuel was down to 15 miles left on Thursday so it has 40ltr of pure Diesel in it now untreated to see if the pulsing comes back. About 50 miles in and nothing yet. So I know what you are all dying to know. I had 35 faults before...... now I have 36 😆 I am going to go through them now 1 by 1. However I thought I had cleared the codes after battery swap but some are still showing old dates as last seen. Does not help I didn't fix the clock so it was saying midnight. One thing for sure.... cruse is still not working after battery change I am sorry to say. Again no lights on dash...... (bar low tyre pressure which I know about) I am beginning to wonder are the bulbs working 😆 Anyway I will list all the 36 errors first then try to clear again and go for a spin, but that will be tomorrow at this stage. Thanks everyone have a good weekend!

ah balls didnt know a 2012 would need coding. Thanks for the heads up! I will do a guide on it when doing it myself. (prob be weekend have a busy week)

Thanks Clifford. I received my VCDS and did a quick scan and battery test as best as I could in the time I had. I do want to say this with I am still running fine engine wise and have not added any new untreated fuel yet. However 34 faults found and to be honest t of them are saying battery or safety reason due to voltages. So I have a new battery ordered and I will pick it up tomorrow. I went with a Yuasa AGM115 Start/Stop Battery as I like Yuasa and also it was on a deal at local halfords who had it in stock (£169) As for injectors they look within tolerance but again running fine at the minute. I will update when battery swapped out. Thanks everyone! Edit: all values are while car running

Th is interesting never thought of the battery. It’s not limp mode as much as a cough if you get me. Will test it though as never changed the battery before in it

So found another issue today. Cruise no longer works. No errors or anything the leaver just does not work with no lights on dash. Not tried it for a code yet but just documenting encase related.

Yeh the remap was purely to delete the EGR and was only attempted as last resort. As for how long I would say it ran with dirty stuff for about 3-4 days was a full tank and sent to mechanic as was ruff as f**. Pretty much all of the fuel system was replaced after that in-fact fuel filter done again after it and tank flushed. Injectors where never touched just due to costs. I am hoping to be able to see any issues with the injectors in VCDS and maybe point me into a direction rather than this scatter gun approach, but I guess at thsi point not much left but them 🙂

I have had very good history with Carly, (loads of discount codes about too) I am sure that is probably a bad word in this forum but honestly gave me the same codes something like a Topdon did. Having said that I am getting a ross tech but only because nothing else is getting me codes. What service was done? did they service the gearbox?

Will do! its very weird and also shocking how we are useless these days without codes 🙂 Expect VCDS next week so will run through it as well all on here.

So an update! The car has been running ALOT better since I got it back from my excellent mechanics. Mechanic has added below in to the fuel (1/3 of a tank in it) and I think its night and day. This would then point to injectors and a hangover from the watery fuel I picked up a while back. I am still waiting for my delivery of the VCDS so I can have a deeper look, Carly is just not cutting it.

you could upgrade the camera maybe then?

found this post few pages back

HI I have Avant 2012 Sline with 255/40/R19s and for low ish profile they are not bad. to be honest roughness for me is in stiffness of the car its self. I have a friend with same year non s-line and not low profile and tbh its not much difference and I live on country roads.

I found reversing camera worked better than the LED lights as the Infer Red was clearer for me that is. Well until it gets dirty! Plenty of kits about for it but bit of a faf wiring

HI, I have seen some YT videos of guys doing this MMI upgrade from ebay kits but I have no first had experience unfortunately. Most look to add in an extra unit and wiring etc which I just dont think for me is worth the carplay alone.

Hi All, I am posting here to hopefully help someone else with this issue in the future. First some back story. My car is 197k 2012 sline 2.0l avant 6 speed manual. About 180k I got some watery diesel but bar that has been a dream regularly serviced every 20k. I bought it at 70k and had full Audi SH so I kept that oh till I had a crash and it was written off. I bought it back and fixed it. All damage was body work. That was about 150k Recently I have been getting a chucking is all I can say it is and as fit the engine wants to exit the car at high speed in 1st to 4th gear and on cold starts. When up to temp its a little better but you can feel it. Its just unreliable when crossing roads etc. I do not travel very far so I waited as long as I could thinking it was gearbox related as it happen when you engage the clutch. I have had a lot of work done in the past while due to carbon build up so all new pieces added in and around EGR turbo etc. Fuel filter been changed twice and tank emptied. Latest (and to no fault of my independent mechanic, he has been great!) we are at a loss. No codes are present and things that changed are but not limited to New Accelerator Pedal Air Flow Meter Fuel pressure sensor Re-Map with EGR removal Diesel purge Issues are still persistent but I will now try to get a Ross Tech kit and see if I can find anything else wrong around fuel delivery. I really like my car and I dont want to give up on it for some new electric crap. I will update this with anything else I find and hopefully it helps someone else down the line!
