I see you've come along from another Polish forum. Glad to see you becoming one of us. Like the car but not keen on the extra green detailing. Pure black matt would have been much meaner.

 

[daniel.ireland]

I took of the green long time ago

Nice one was too much in your face. Like the stealthy looks. Well done buddy.

 

[mjr901]

Quite like the seats!

 

[AndyA3170]

Is the small child in the car a mod too lol

yep works as a organic quickshifter

 

[Tempy]

Love the matt black look. Much better now you've ditched the green bits. Really liking the red stitching on the interior too. Must have cost a bit to do all that.

Nice looking car mate :icon_thumright:

 

[Ironborn]

Very nice indeed, is a facelift on the cards? Quattro retro

 

[dex140]

Nice love the matt black! How do you keep the mat black clean? does it show up greasy finger marks? What do you have attached to the phone connector?

sorry but I don't understand Your question

 

[daniel.ireland]

thanks

maintenance of cleanliness is very easy, I use only on an ordinary car wash shampoo
easy to clean the greasy stains.
I have to be honest as I was tired, everyone touches the car

 

[daniel.ireland]

What do you think of the new rim

I put them only for a moment, now gone to paint

 

[nil538]

Very nice car mate what Colour the rims going ?

 

[daniel.ireland]

Same colours

Pics special for stetheo
Custom drl made by my friend

 

[GvZ]

Headlights painted inside... would love to do that.

 

[westers]

Sorry, not a fan of the matt black - it makes a luxury car brand look like a cheap chav car.

I also struggle to see the point of putting the S3 badge on the front grill - it's a 2.0 TDI, and everyone will know that from the engine sound.

 

[daniel.ireland]

I took off the badge long time ago, today stays only S
i think that's perfect color for that's shape and I not gonna change this color in this year.
In June I going to Poland for raceism event and vag event so the entire savings will go for it and a few mods

 

[big harty]

I must say. I love the matt black. You must be a very proud man of your creation. Enjoy. Will be watching this build thread with excitement.

How does the facelift climate work on a 2005?

 

[daniel.ireland]

How does the facelift climate work on a 2005?

Not the one on picture, next week I Will fit new with heated seats it will works.

In new climatronic doesn't work air conditioning, rest is fine.
If U won't facelift U need swapped front panel, fit new panel to old climate control.

[molly s3]

I live in Cork and have seen your car around a few times - looks great, really stands out!
You've put a huge amount of effort into it - you must be delighted with it.

8p0 907 279 P? what is this ce used for? i thort f-k is the latest you can fit to the prefacelift a3.

 

[daniel.ireland]

Yes U can use them, is almost the same like K but have more codding functions.
I get them cheep and swap, I never know what be the next step(mods) and maybe I need them


I add bixenon to my Audi, and if I won't drl lights work I coded for Scandinavia.
When I turn the key del lights was on all the time even the switch was on 0.
Only in Bordnetz P U can coded and when switch is on position 0 lights doesn't work.

Oder way with drl is find switch with drl on/off on roll and do some job with the wire's.

 

[daniel.ireland]

I'm from Cobh
Sometimes I do shipping in Midleton and visit Jungle World with my son Liam

 

[amar06fbr]

whats the diffrence between k and p? and did you have any issues fitting the p? fault codes?

 

[Luke2.0tdi2010]

Seems as though you've put a lot of time, effort and money into this project! Fair play to you. Personally I don't like the rims but rest of the car looks nice particularly the interior. I'd say keep up the good work but I dunno what else you could find to do!!

 

[daniel.ireland]

I can explains better, my English is not that good.
Maybe somebody can explain? Boys? NHN?

All K & N & P 30 bytes but true is
K is only 24. 25-30 ar empty
N & P 26 minimum

On last 2 bytes I'm not sure what is exactly (my vcds don't show me)
I only know if in 25byte I change 00 to 20 my drl lights go off if switch is in position 0 with Scandinavian coding. In bord K drl was ON all the time


No problems with fitting, no fouls, p&p

 

[Ironborn]

sorry but I don't understand Your question

Are you going to facelift the car? 8P3

 

[KOZI]

Last board put in in pre-facelift A3's was P,
Scandinavian mode in bordnetz means that when your light switch is in position 0. Your position/drl lights are ON, so you don't have to bother to turn them ON every time you start your car, also there is no buzzer when leaving car.
Now with Board N/P you are getting few more option to code in byte 25 onwards. So when you have your light switch in position 0 DRL/position lights wont stays ON with Scandinavian coding like Daniel mention.
