    Dim LED tail light help

    Hi folks, another issue I would like some help with if anyone can. I noticed that my drivers side rear outer LED tail lights have gone really dim. I've got an 09 facelift Avant. I've scouted around a bit on the web and found a thread on another forum but didn't really have a solution. I read...

    Rear Light Tint?

    Anyone have any experience with this? I'm just finishing off the last few of the mods I intended to do on the rear of my car - chrome exhaust tips ordered, spoiler fitted. I like the slightly smoked rear lights (Am I right in thinking they come slightly darker on the S Line?) and wanted to do...

    H7 or H11!

    Awesome. Just bought myself a pair - Im annoyed I bought some Osram Night Breakers now.... They are better than stock ones but still quite yellow compared to the Xenons and DRL's. Anyone want some very cheap H11 Osram Nightbreakers give me a shout!

    Hmmm. Confused.

    And thats why I love forums! Thanks elan2s, that totally clears that up. Mine is the avant and it appears I'm paying the right tax after all. Only thing different from what you say is I have a full spare wheel and my car was definitely not lowered (I had to do this myself). The gearing does seem...

    Thanks gents, H11 it was!

    Hmmm. Confused.

    Thanks elan2S, that info has gone a long way in answering my questions - really helpful. I haven't owned the car from new, but when I purchased it wasn't marketed as a TDIe just a TDI SE nor does it mention TDIe on my V5C just TDI SE CVT. It would be great to know the official TDIe multitronic...

    Hmmm. Confused.

    Another couple of things, I can only find one TDIe C6 multitronic on the whole of the internet with many sources saying they didn't do them? Also all the reviews state that the TDIe engine puts out 139g/km of CO2 so in a really low car tax bracket (Band E). Ive been paying 'Band I' ever since I...

    Hmmm. Confused.

    Thanks guys, spoke to my local Audi guy - its a TDIe. Kind of explains its lack of power for (what I thought was) a 170BHP engine. Maybe a re-map could be in order....but with a multitronic box that could be a risk?

    Hmmm. Confused.

    So my engine is the TDIe?

    Hmmm. Confused.

    Thanks B5NUT. The first letters after the description of the car are CAGB. Then LDQ.

    Hmmm. Confused.

    Ive had a play around with my option codes in my service book today and noticed that I have a different engine than I thought I had(!) It says TDI 2.0 100KW. I always thought my car was slow for what I thought must be the 170BHP car - so can someone please confirm if I have the TDIe engine? I...

    Badge Tuning?

    I've got an SE Avant, but so far I've added OEM 19" RS6 Alloys, Eibach lowering springs, roof spoiler and the S-Line Sports Seats (amongst other things). Do you think its acceptable to put an S Line badge on the side? I'm not bothered about 'conning' people into thinking its an S-Line and I...

    H7 or H11!

    Sorry if its already been answered but there is a LOT of conflicting info on the forums and bulb selling websites. Can someone definitively answer, are the foglight bulbs on my 2009 A6 Facelift Avant H7 or H11? All bulb websites list H7 but I've seen a few posts saying its definitely H11...

    Firmware Upgrade to Solve Phonebook Issue?

    Think Ive sorted it now, thanks for all the advice B5NUT. One last question before I go for it, will it reset all my VCDS changes once I complete the update?

    Firmware Upgrade to Solve Phonebook Issue?

    Fair play c3nturi0n but the maps will not cost that little and my current Nav maps wouldnt work with a new firmware update!

    Firmware Upgrade to Solve Phonebook Issue?

    Thanks man, but from what I've read its best to get one from someone who's confirmed it working. A lot of ones out there may brick it? Sent you a PM.

    Firmware Upgrade to Solve Phonebook Issue?

    Thanks again B5NUT, I've been following your thread with much interest. Its something I'm really tempted to have a go at but scared I may end up bricking the system! I have located (I think) all the necessary files, but without the activation code they're useless!

    Firmware Upgrade to Solve Phonebook Issue?

    Hi Audi folk I put a post on a while ago about the data transfer from my iPhone to my MMI 3G seeming not to work (won't transfer phone book). After a lot of reading up on this subject, it appears a firmware upgrade might do the trick. I've literally tried everything else! I'm running software...
