    Intermittent DRL

    Well VAG-DVI got back to me in double quick time but he states that he only does A6 lights so I guess it's a replacement(?)

    Intermittent DRL

    This is the unit that I have. Just in case anyone has any other suggestions or it is not repairable.

    Intermittent DRL

    Thanks for that. It looks like he just does the repairs for the A6 but I'll drop them a question to see if they can help.

    Intermittent DRL

    Cheers. I was hoping it wouldn't be but there you go! I'm guessing my next question is how do I identify which unit I have/need and any recommended places to get the replacement from. It also appears to be a fairly big job to change it over, taking the bumper off etc, if my searching around is...

    Intermittent DRL

    It looks like I have an intermittent DRL on the drivers side. It came up with the warning light on the console info a few weeks ago but went off an hour or so later. All good since then. Today I was out and after about 30 minutes the warning came on again and the DRL was off. The rest of the...

    Dension or XCarLink?

    Dension have a compatibility guide on their website. Gateway 100 | iPod car adapter | iPod car stereo | iPhone car adapter

    Dension or XCarLink?

    No idea if it works with your car. I installed the GW100 into mine last week which took about 10 minutes and it's just plug and play. All you need are the keys to get the stereo out. I get the text read out on the info centre next to the speedo, the only downside is that the stereo itself just...

    Dension or XCarLink?

    I've stumped up for a Dension 100 from iPodcarkits who assure me that the SatNav app and the music should both work fine simultaneously. :arco:

    Dension or XCarLink?

    Thanks for that. I'm swaying towards the Gateway 100 now with an iPhone4 on the active cradle mounted on one of the vents. As an aside would there be any issues if I use the TomTom satnav app on the iPhone at the same time as playing music through the Dension?

    Alternatively......... I may put the Pioneer HU back in

    I know I've posted a thread asking for advice regarding the option of using the XCarLink or Denson with the existing Concert (Double Din (II+ I think?), unit in my 59 plate A3 2.0Tdi Black Edition) but I'm considering putting my Pioneer HU in also. The Pioneer is the DEH-P88RS, and the Pioneer...

    Dension or XCarLink?

    I've just changed to an A3 TDi Black Edition Quattro, 59 plate from a 2.0TFSi Quattro. Rather than changing out the head unit again I'm considering using an iPod/BT adapter with the existing double DIN Concert/Bose. A compromise on sound quality I know against the HU replacement. The question I...

    Gearbox / Clutch issues?

    I was driving home this afternoon and the gearbox change went very stiff. It needs an arm like Popeye now to change gears. The strange thing (to me anyway) is that the gearbox works fine when the engine is off but becomes stiff when the engine is on. I've got the local garage to have a look at...

    I've got the Saris now but thanks anyway.

    Here's mine put on this afternoon.

    Mountain Bike lugging.

    Right, I have got a Saris Bones and installed it. No problems, nice bit of kit. Just one question. I could put all the straps on around the A3 hatch without even opening it. What is stopping "someone" un-installing it when I'm parked up and out on the bike?
