Just had 09 S3 clocks fitted into my 06 2.0T

Lewbo · Apr 7, 2014

Managed to get hold of some 09 s3 clocks as I am doing a 3rd facelift S3 conversion lol no one really confirmed that these would be able to be coded and work. But I can say it certainly does.

Dropped the car off this morning and an hour later I had a phone call to say it was ready to collect and here are the results

before

After

as you can the see it's 10x better and only cost £50 to get coded so Well worth it and a bargain too. As some may see the mileage still needs changing which couldn't be done as his machine was playing up but will be soon sorted and I'm well happy with it.

The needle sweep and lap timer also work too which is even better.

where did you have this done if you don't mind me asking and whats needed?

Lewbo · Apr 7, 2014

Got it done from a garage local to me, nothing was needed I went in with the facelift clocks and they fitted and coded it all in for me. I'll pm you the place that did it. At the price I paid it was miles cheaper than anywhere else. I'm all about saving people money so anyone that wants to know just PM me

Haha, well spotted.

I'd love to know who's doing this so cheap too, and what tools were not working to correct the milage. Same tool that programs them also corrects milage... Pm details please

Ron burgundy · Apr 7, 2014

Why don't you just put the details on here for everyone to see..

I'm not actually interested...I'm just being nosey And also just being a nuisance [ my laugh ]

Lewbo · Apr 7, 2014

Thanks I'm well pleased with the outcome, defo recommend getting it done and the company that did it is Home - Alltune Garage LTD
They are located in hull and know there stuff. Just give them a call and they will be more than happy to help.

Haha wondered how long it would take regarding the fuel, I just used the newest photo I had of my clocks lol

@udi A3 · Apr 9, 2014

Does your immobiliser still function as it should?

Andy1608 · Apr 9, 2014

Lewis just buy an S3 lol

S3vroom · Apr 9, 2014

Alltune garage ltd has been around a while they were originally a diagnostics company, i've been there twice to have this done as I was also told £50 to program them in. The first time they couldn't do it, the second time my car went dead and in the end I ended up paying £700 for a new dashboard. I weren't too happy about it as it was their fault but they blamed me saying it was a non compatible dashboard and that I didn't tell them this.

You get what you pay for with these guys!!

Lewbo · Apr 9, 2014

No need to get an S3 Andy I can do this and save over £10k and spend that on my house

lol immobiliser works fine to my knowledge. Can't comment on problems you had mate but my was spot on.

S3_Jacko · Apr 9, 2014

So you have white s3 clocks in an A3!? Why!?

Could have used that money on your house too!

That would be boring spending it all on a house

Lewbo · Apr 9, 2014

Cos I'm doing a facelift s3 conversion and they was only £50 so a total of £100 incl coding lol normal a3 clocks sell for that price alone and more

Ahhhh I never knew you were doing full conversion... I thought you were only doing the clocks ha... Seemed a bit pointless

Lewbo · Apr 9, 2014

Yes your right would of been pointless if it was just clocks but going all the way, one other thing I like better on facelift s3 clocks compared to normal facelift clocks is white needles which I wanted lol

@udi A3 · Apr 9, 2014

I only asked about the immo as i have had several reports and dealt with cars that were programmed by others, this garage included, and immo was coded out rather than a correct proceedure following.

This weekend I repaired 2 cars in Wales similar story.

I know the tools they use, they have a very good tech support team who do the work for them, this work is what I do when I swap the dashes. My tools function differently and they take longer, introduce more risk to me causing damage( insurance in place to cover any loss to customer and as such the job is more expensive.

I'll be happy to attempt a repair on any job this garage fails on and I'm confident of a good result. A3 and late mk5 golf dashes are very hard to work with for these conversions without the likes of NHN and a new unit.
