I towed a caravan (only a couple of times a year) with my S5 and never bothered with anything like that, albeit I did try and keep the noseweight to 85KG as per the maual and towbar recomendations

Rubber donuts? (I’m unfamiliar with those)

Apologies, I didnt see that in the thread. I just read you'd ordered a wing and wasnt sure it was the right one for the car, you mentioned would have been easier staying at B8 in post 10, which suggested to me you were ordering an 8.5 wing. However, I've completely mis-read the situation, sorry...

Are you sure its a B8.5? (I thought one of the identifying features is that the 8.5 have rectangular fog lights, not oval)

Royal steering wheels refinished mine for me a couple of months ago. Would recommend them highly.

Now that seems like it could be a better option for me, for the small inrease in convenience. Any links to a product which will work for the 3G high unit please? (I'd prefer to buy from a recomendation of someone who actually has got one which is working) Thanks Matt

I think I'm being a bit of a div here, having only ever used Android Auto in cars suitablly equipped, I tried it in my 2016 plate S5 last night, and it would seem I can get the same fucntioinality, but using my phone, and the Bluetooth streaming functionality into the MMI 3G high taking care of...

Did you fit that yourself? (looks reasonably straightforward). albeit not sure where the mic would go as I already have one in there for the MMI high system. Also, any issue with the touch screen layover, does it affect the standard screen resolution/image much when using say the radio only?

“ Job done. Matches nicely with the door card inserts too.

DGS gearbox oil changed yesterday, as well as aircon serviced. Tomorrow is a retrimmed steering wheel from Royal Steering wheels!

Had a very simialr instance on a MK5 GTi my wife owned around 7 years ago. VW replaced both wings under warranty and painted them FOC. It was a know issue with the wheel arch liner rubbing, so VAG do have history with this type of problem. I spoke directly with VW customer service at the time in...

:) Thats tricky to say when I'd need to be the driver of the oncoming car, to confirm I was dazzling them. Albeit when people coming the other way occasioanly feel the need to flash their lights at me, I'd assume the delay isnt acceptable to some.

I tried setting mine to early this evening. It doesn’t seem to have made a lot, if any, difference. It still seems to switch around a second or so later than what I would do it manually. It could be I notice it due to the rural area that I live in, with minimal street lighting.

I'd like to know where it is in the settings. The only one I can see is for the automatic headlights to cone on early or later,which I assumed to be ambient light level adjustment for the auto headlights on, not high beam assist

I’d love to disable mine too. It’s a pain in the ****.

Nice work! (what lead is that going from the device to the cigarette socket please?) USB to Mini, or USB to micro USB etc?

Maybe even running away!! (how long has the current owner had it?)

Are you fellas running 19" or 20" wheels?

Cool, with the help of this post, I’ve managed to sort it. The trim I popped off pretty easily (it was not the whole trim over and around the binnacles just a separate piece round the MMI unit, which made my B8.5 versioneasier) I’ve applied some silicone spray around the cracks as per the post...

I wonder if I could get away with just squirting some silcon spray into the surround, under the trim, using the narrow spray tube which cames with cans of spray. Would save having to remove it. The B8.5 interior looks like it is all one part, and trim removal scares me!
