    MFSW retrofit problem

    Tried again today to find the fault with this but failed. I have metered the pins out on the slip ring and it is fine as I thought, checked the airbag loom and it has the part number Wrath has posted above, also metered this out and it is fine. I have 2 sets of mfsw buttons and they both only...

    MFSW retrofit problem

    Not sure where the wheel came from originally, bought it off ebay and the seller didn't say, they had bought the wheel themselves off ebay to retro fit on their car but never did, the wheel came with the airbag loom so I pressumed it was right for my car as the wheel fitted fine. I thought I had...

    MFSW retrofit problem

    What makes you think it will be the airbag loom, are there different ones for the A3, A4, A6 etc. If so do you know what the correct part number is and if the looms are different does that mean the buttons are different? Both mfsw that I have are the same to look at as the none mfsw that I...

    MFSW retrofit problem

    What is the wheel like? Do you have the airbag loom still attached to it? If so any chance of some photos or part number?

    MFSW retrofit problem

    I don't know without taking it to bits, I know the slip ring I fitted had the 2nd row of pins so that is correct and everything connected up fine, I have checked all the connections several times. Are there different air bag looms or are they all the same, the air bag loom came with the first...

    MFSW retrofit problem

    Thats what I thought, there is obviously power to it otherwise it wouldn't be lit up but no I haven't got ELSA for the wiring diagrams, is there anyone on here who can help with that sort of thing?

    MFSW retrofit problem

    Thanks for the reply, I thought the ones that end with n were ok, there is a main dealer selling them on ebay and it says in the listing they are compatible with cruise and mfsw, can anyone confirm this or have any other ideas/things to check.

    MFSW retrofit problem

    Hi everyone, I know this has been covered many times before and I have spent many hours reading various threads trying to find an answer to my problem but haven't so thought I would start a thread and see if anyone knows the answer to a problem I have with a retro fitted mfsw on my a4 b7. I...

    In the market for wheels.....

    The finish is spot on there I can guarantee it, animal you are more than welcome to come and see mine (been done about one and a half years). You are correct though I think they did have some problems with a product they used, my mum had 2 of her A2 alloys done there about 2 years ago, she...

    In the market for wheels.....

    If I were you I would pay and get them done professionally, if you can't afford it now hang on. I don't know how good you are with a rattle can etc but I once tried to do my own and by the time i'd bought everything I needed and done 1 wheel I was fed up and had wasted money also. I had my 18"...

    Front ARB collars and Bushes

    Just done the front ARB on my 2002 S3 would have thought it would be the same job. Did it on the drive using axle stands took about 5 hours taking my time. You do have to lower the subframe but if you take your time it really isn't that hard, I did the rear as well as that was knackered just...
