Hi, Got a problem. Recently had a new Can-bus adapter connected to my aftermarket head unit which now enables it to stay on until I remove the key. This now works fine however when I remove the key and the unit switches off there's an immediate zap sound which comes from the speakers. I had the...

thanks mate. they apparently ended up replacing the module to get it to work, but couldn't work out the remote control function. I'll keep your suggestion in mind.

Thanks guys, unfortunately my dis only goes as far as units. I'll see what possible with VagCom. Really strange the only thing I can think of may have happened is when they fixed my windows (they had some play in them) that they either used a wrong module/regulator or reset everthing. Initially...

Recently had a couple of issues fixed by Audi but a number of problems (which they created) have since arisen which they don't seem to have an idea as to how to fix just yet. This forum has a lot of knowledgable people so I'm hoping you guys can give me an idea as to what may have happened. I...

what would be the difference with having it under the dash as opposed to in the glove box? Both I assume would receive the same satellite reception strength?

Ok, got a problem which has been annoying me for months and I'm hoping someone here has come across the same problem and found a resolution. I've got a Pioneer F10BT with the GPS installed under the dash of my A3. I'm finding that the vehicle location displayed on the nav is generally a...

thanks AndyMac, had a couple of different installers try 2 different antena adapters and both seem to cause static intereference. FM isn't too bad I get the occassional stereo drop out/static but AM constanty has static. The alternative seems to be to stick a small antenna on the top of the back...

update. Had the audio place have a listen to the speakers. Looks like there is definately something amiss with the speakers or the set up. The rears sound miles better than the fronts (granted the fronts have greatly improved with the amp). The audio guys agree the sound is totally flat even...

thanks I'll head back to the store that did the install.. AM is really bad as well - there's a lot of static noice, is there anything I can do about that?

had an audio place install it an assumed they would have adjusted everything correctly. Do you think this would rectify the issue, wouldn't the sound be better anyway with an amp? I did notice the rears were conciderably louder than previously. What would be the standard gain adjustment an would...

sorry mate, car is Audi A3 8p and was originally non bose concert 2008 currently running pioneer h/u f10bt , focal amp, Focal 165VR splits (6.5 on doors and tweeters). Door now also has sound deadening. Prior was running f10bt through stock speakers without an amp. Amp doesn't seem to be...

hi, had some Focal 165VR splits and an amp installed and I'm finding the sound is not as loud as the OEM set up and not as punchy. I really need to turn up the sound on the head unit to get it to the level I usually have it on. Also noticed that if I fade the sound to the front so that only the...

Hi, got a pioneer head unit with bluetooth but the parrot microphone is something shocking, people can hardly hear me no matter the position of the mic. Wondering whether the Audi mic would fit into the pioneer head unit and are the any good and if so any cheap places to get them as ebay doesn't...

Hi, I've got a 2008 1.8TFSI DSG and noticed that on hot days the cars shifting is really bad. When accelerating from a standstill there is a big shunt (like a really bad manual change). Once moving it is OK but then again when coming to a standstill and stopped the cars revs bounce like its...

thanks all crisis over all works ok now. realised the stupidity of my question re location of fuse box when I went in and had a look. It's obviously not on the side of the glove box. thanks again.

cheers. On a rhd vehicle is it on the right hand side? The diagram in the manual has it on the left but the vehicle in the diagram is rhd. cheers again.

nah mate the actual panel on the side door. just want to make sure I'm pulling it out correctly and not breaking a clip.

sorry just had a look at the manual again and the diagram has a flat head screw driver being inserted to remove. Does it just clip ou?

ok will replace the fuse tommorow. got the manual out and the process seems fairly straigh forward.

easy for a novice to replace?
