    Android Auto upgrade

    Having seen your list I assume we are at cross purposes , the 8V aftermarket upgrades generally available reuse the cars controls, cameras, the existing screen etc, they come with a complete harness with all adaptors.. No facias required as the box is a behind the scenes thing. From the unit's...

    Android Auto upgrade

    Not an unreasonable argument, however very few of the 500gbp units offer anything more that 12mths What are these add-ons you speak of, I've only ever seen the bare units and wiring looms offered for sale.

    Android Auto upgrade

    I have a 2015 8V A3 Saloon, I'm in the market for a Android Auto upgrade, currently thinking I'd opt for the cheaper third party box vs the upgrade with OEM parts My question is who's bought one of these and is happy with it? I'm reasonably handy so happy to self install, however looking at...

    Speed Camera POI

    Hi, I've designed an app which does POI conversion, it's getting a bit patchy now which cars are supported so your millage might vary, you don't need to use it if you have a better tool but it's helped many on this forum. http://git.mcaddy.co.uk/ For what it's worth In the POI files my tool...

    Faulty boot release!

    To my surprise local Audi dealer suggested that it might be fixable under goodwill, the catch is that they need to 'diagnose' the fault themselves and as your probably aware this will cost at least a hours labour and will still cost me £115. Will given some thought to next steps. Whilst...

    DAB gone, SIM not working, what next!

    Thanks for this, I've found a loom issue in my boot lid (a different fault), so maybe it's the same, wasn't too bad to access, guessing the head lining might be trickier?

    DAB gone, SIM not working, what next!

    Many months ago my DAB radio stopped working, now the SIM card isn't being recognised for connected services. I'm wondering if it's antenna related? Has anyone had a similar issue? FM and AM still work, are all aerials in one location? if not where are each of the aerials located? I'm assuming...

    Faulty boot release!

    Was giving the car a clean before the MOT tomorrow, all looking nice and presentable and the boot wouldn't open, assuming I'd got some water in the electrics or similar I used the manual release and found that all worked fine, but only intermittently both the remote and the release button was...

    Speed Camera POI

    I've replied to your DM, for anyone else who stumbles across this issue try with the latest version of the app v0.9.4 https://github.com/mcaddy/audipoi/raw/master/Releases/SpeedCameraToPoi_v0.9.4.zip If that still doesn't work send me a message and I see if I can help further.

    Speed Camera POI

    Your the first to request anything other than UK cameras, until this becomes a regular request, I'll not implement anything specific. For now if you use the app but fail to login (supply a invalid password or username). You should then be prompted to do a manual download and import, if you go to...

    Speed Camera POI

    The App will give you the choice of including either only verified or both verified and unverified cameras, this has been an optional setting since the outset. The default is to include all cameras regardless of status. I think the AUDI website might have a limit, but the software I've written...

    Speed Camera POI

    If it's an identical format to the Pocket GPS file it ought to work but it's not how the tool has been designed or tested.

    Speed Camera POI

    A few times on this thread people have reported an issue where the car states that the 'data is too old to load', I've not previously had the time or inclination to look into it, however it turns out to have been a relatively simple thing to fix, hopefully it'll benefit some. All that was...

    Speed Camera POI

    I've also added a feature to all three apps to allow them to be run from a script. The '-auto' flag instructs the app to load and try and build the database using the settings last used when in interactive mode. It is highly recommended that you use the '-target' parameter along with the drive...
