    Sourcing and replacing exterior B Pillar Plate

    Hey everyone, Storm Doris has claimed some damage on my car! I'm sure that i'm luckier than most but the wind caught my door when opening which whipped it into the wall next to me. Luckily there was a deep window sill which the door hit rather than the bare brick work but it is cracked the...

    Component Protection - Surrey

    Hi, Hoping this will be the right part of the forum for this. I'm looking for someone to give me a hand to reset component protection on my Audi B8. I've installed a replacement airbag module as mine had failed and I need the protection removed now. I've read that it's not VCDS that does...

    Airbag Module Swap

    Hi John? You're right, so plugged into VCDS this evening. Loads of codes I guess from the unplugging of items to get the module. Cleared all codes with only one remaining, Air Bag - component protection active: So most of what I read suggested that only a Dealer can reset this. Does anyone...

    Airbag Module Swap

    Hi, Wondering whether anyone can shed some light on this for me. I've had a airbag light on the dash and the "passenger air bag is off" illuminated constantly and took the car to Audi who confirmed that the airbag module appears to be the issue. Found other people on here with similar issues...

    Custom Exhaust Place Reviews - Help

    I've had two exhausts made by EMP in the past. One when they first started out and one recently. Build quality is extremely high, very impressive weld lines and fitment. They're also competitive in price too. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Thank you for your reply, very much appreciated. Looks like the sensor is very easily replaced so i'll get on to that now, see whether i can get a good price for one rather than main dealer. Would you expect there would be anything needed to reset or do on VCDS after the sensor is replaced...

    Anyone have any ideas with regards to Air bag light? I'm taking from the above codes that the Differential Pressure Sensor and A/C Pressure Sensor need replacing too.

    Futher reply from Carista: "Audi changed the protocol for manufacturer-specific OBD communication around 2009. Most adapters use different type of communication, so we cannot implement support for now. Let us know if you have any more questions. "

    So, run through with VCDS. No code at all for the air bag. Thinking maybe it's a faulty switch as there is no change when switching between on and off in the glovebox. I did get codes for DPF and air con. I wonder whether someone can help me diagnose what they mean and how to resolve :-S Think...

    Louis' A4 2.0tdi

    So i found in the service history that the car had been to Audi in April to investigate the light. They performed a VAGCOM check and reported no codes found, their advice was to book it in with them for a physical check of components at a cost of £160inc VAT. Is there anything i can check with...
