    Apple CarPlay

    There are quite a few DIY solutions, including downloads on YouTube. You do this at your own risk of course. Depending on where you live, there are a few places around who can do this for you, if your not willing to try it yourself. Member @DJAlix is a good place to start. John. :hi:

    Rear View Camera retrofit clarification

    Pretty sure you need the camera control unit, and if you're installing from scratch, including control unit, you'll need more than VCDS as that can’t program component protection - that needs dealer level software. Parts listed here fyi

    Alternator Fault: Battery Not Charging - Fault Message

    I’m no expert, but I’d say your battery voltage with the car running is a bit low at 13.86v. This could indicative a developing problem with the alternator. I would have expected the measured voltage to be closer to 14.5 v with the engine running. May be worth looking for a local automotive...

    Joining the A7 Family

    Gutted for you Andy :frown new: I’m still running the S7 as my daily (though I’m out of the country with work these days, so it’s more garaged than not) Odometer just clicked over 90k miles. Hasn’t missed a beat since I collected him with 18 miles on the clock. (Its definitely a “him” aka...

    Need to change cars because of ULEZ currently have a nifty A3 sline 2.0 TDI diesel ?

    My 6 year old 4.0t Audi S7 is ULEZ compliant. Go figure :blink: I think your safe with pretty much anything built after 2016, and there are plenty of free web sites that can check compliance using a reg number.

    Apple CarPlay

    Well, if you have the MIB2 unit, then if not already set up, a software upgrade will enable Carplay (and Android Auto) via a wired connection. if you want a wireless connection there are a number of different USB plugin dongles which can enable that function. Getting a touchscreen to replace...

    A7 C7.5 Steering wheel upgrade

    Hi Jiten, No need for VIN or registration, you just need to be sure that the donor vehicle was either a C7 or a C7.5 model car. The flat bottom wheel (and airbag) from the A6 or A7 platforms are interchangeable - The badge on the steeling wheel can also be changed. See my post, item #5 here...

    ACC and audi breaking guard unavailable

    There are a number of components that all have to be working for ACC and BrakeGuard to be functional: Suspension height must be within specification - do you have any modifications to height or wheels? The front facing radar sensors must be calibrated - any aftermarket modifications/accident...

    C7 a6 a7 instrument cluster/mmi software update?

    This is not a TSB that I’ve heard of, or has been mentioned in any of the forums I visit, so it could be focused on a very specific VIN range. It’s definitely worth bringing it to the attention of your dealer, if nothing else than to discount it from the problems you’re having. John :hi:

    Rs6 air box swap question

    The airbox has two pipes because the S/RS cars have twin turbos. (Btw, that box looks like it’s from an S car, not an RS - The RS has a “grill“ on the top right corner of the airbox) You should be able to use the single pipe connection from your TDI as I believe the actual box part is common...

    Halogen to xenon lights

    Well, assuming you know that it’s not just about swapping the bulbs over, if you want to be street legal, and pass the MOT, there is actually quite a lot to do. Headlamps need to be self levelling, so you would need new headlamp assemblies as well as the levelling control gear You will need the...

    Upgrades for new..... well 2016 but new to me A7

    Congrats on the A7 :yahoo: Post a picture if you can. My S7 is currently garaged as I’m working outside the UK for a bit. I miss driving it lol. I’ve done a few mods to the S7, and though the engine mods won’t apply, most of the other cosmetic type stuff should work. Here are a few links...
