Annoyingly enough, looks like my car was rear ended on my drive way whilst we were away. Nothing major - just the bumper, bit of hot water and pushing will pop it back into shape... The car didn't want to make that annoying sound... Probably as I had the mrs recording for it, so the car...

That's it, and it's only under load. I can't record a video until Monday as I'm away for the weekend (didn't drive as I didn't trust the car for the 300+ mile journey). I get that same ticking/flicking sound inside the car very slightly too, more than the expected sound from a diesel....

It does sound very similar - but I can hear that ticky noise inside the car especially loud when it's cold... You having the same problems?

So, I have an Audi A3 CFFB (common rail) engine. I had the emissions fix applied late last year, no problems... I've recent noticed that the engine has a horrible ticking/clicking sound upon cold start, and it stays around until the car is fully up to temperature. You can still hear the slight...

I'll take some tomorrow... I finished off the wiring after work today, all hidden and tidy.

Hi, it is the camera above (I got it from Amazon via CarRover as I got Prime and wanted it next day) Camera angle is fine, here's a picture whilst I was getting the angle and everything lined up nicely, which is why it looks a bit wonky in this pic :) As you can see, it's not lined up in the...

Finally got it installed

Can you confirm how much RAM you have? 1GB or 2GB? I see that there's an update to the firmware on your device, as well as Android itself... Only reason I'm asking about the RAM is because I wouldn't want you to flash 6.0.1 with 1GB without being aware. I see that there's an MCU update...

I'm still playing around with the memory, one thing I noticed on the trip back from Bicester Village - my Google Maps stops navigating/froze on the M1. Usually thing ends up being a full reboot, as closing the crashed Maps, and reopening results in the same poor performance... Whilst in the...

I'm not technical enough to rip that bit out I guess; I could take the backing off the boot off... I saw that bit that you brought separately in the boot door, but would have no idea how the hell to get it out (if I were to get the A4 one) :D

Right, it won't be too difficult - I've played around with some old phones/tablets to see what it really does when you remove it. The easiest method, download a root file explorer Give it root permissions Go to /system/app and delete kingoroot.apk, and if there's any other kingoroot titled apks...

Nah, if you've got an older unit with 1Gb RAM and have performance issues, it's the best route. If you've got 2Gb or a nicely performing 1Gb, just root with the above method, and download Kernel Aduitor, change the CPU core clock to max (it won't overheat, won't diminish the device as they're...

Hi Leon - Xtrons gave me this link: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjrY0uqbW_kBgzGKO1x_CECC9815 for GPS/maps. Personally I use Google Maps. I've had issues with Google Maps crashing after an hour or so of driving (when using it for navigation), having it running on the maps it worked fine with no problem...

I've had issues with mine (nothing major), just Google Maps dying on long distance trips. Xtrons have given me an update to apply - This is for the PB76AA3AP unit - install using the front USB port/adaptor

Mine does the same thing, my ultimate test to confirm if it was still on/alive was to hook up my laptop via adb, turn the car off, and see if I was still able to pull information on the unit - which I was. Also using terminal emulator I was able to confirm that my uptime hadn't reset either... I...
