I took an AUX socket from an A3 and mounted it into a blank on slot on the dash next to the hazzard switch. From memory (but it was 5 years ago) no VCDS coding was needed you just keep pressing the CD button untill it says Aux.
Thanks Alex.
Yes I had the clutch switch issue about 3 years ago so it was one of the first things I checked.
Interestingly now it sometimes won't even switch on. I'm down to the conclusion it's a software issue and I need to reflash the ecu. So if anyone knows a free way to do that I'm all ears!
Afternoon all I got an odd 1 that started a while ago. My cruise control works perfectly fine below 60mph. But above this its really unstable and often just accelerates away until I switch it off way north of legal. I have legit Vcds and have been over the usual suspects with a mate sat next to...
Morning All,
I have an old B7 a4 and am looking for an autodab SWC AU-01 unit to add DAB to my car. I see loads of places advertising them but when you ask they are all on back order. I dont suppose anyone has an old unit laying about that I could buy from them?
Thanks
I have a similar issue but on an A4 with the standard Concert 2 +, The ebay special VCDS cable I have says it works with K-line and CANBUS but wont talk to the radio. (same error as the title to this thread) do we all think its just a dodgy cable or is there some VCDS button I need to press to...
Just plugged in VCDS to check I can activate the aux in before running wires, and it won't connect to the radio. Connects to everything else fine and I even changed a few bits here and there as a test but won't talk to the radio. I have a concert 2+. Any bright ideas?
My plan was to take out the...
The clue is in the name people you go round them not straight over them!!!!
Now on a clear open road with no one around we all straight line the odd roundabout, saves on brake pads tyres etc. and as a biker as well its just knee down fun...

well i got mine today when a VAG man came round to program my car to have towbar electrics.... yer i know strange link. but he plugged in VAG com and updated the software as a nicety. Dont know where you are but if its near kent look up DJ Hirst, top bloke.
so quick update. the car is now all good and working :) many thanks to DJ Hirst from Rainham in Kent. the man is a legend!!! highly recommend his guy for any VAG voodoo related wizardry needed.
Does it only happen when cold? if so there is a software update for the engine ECU that doesn't open the EGR as much when cold. (20% instead of 50%) fixed mine right up :)
I'm new here and a little late to the game but having spent this whole weekend trying to fit a towbar to my 07 A4 Avant I just had to add some comments.
Ok so firstly the guide above is amazing and anyone about to undertake this project needs it! but i would like to add some foot notes and...
