Thanks again for the response. Previous fault codes cleared, new coding accepted in 01. All up and running.

No I have not. What sub section does it fall under? Thanks for the response btw :)

All, I finally got around to retrofitting cruise to my B7 yesterday, following the sticky installation guide on here. The 4th digit coding was changed to a 4 as per instruction but when scanning with VCDS the steering wheel module flagged an 'incorrect coding' error. Does anyone have any idea...

I've just done a search for Unicorn Tom and realised that one of the sponsors Rick(Unicorn) had been commenting on another DPF removal post I was reading last week, I couldn't remember who it was. Anyway other site members were giving great feedback about them. I'll give him a message and see...

Have you had a quote for works from Unicorn? Or know which map they use? I was considering using the Darkside developments DPF & EGR delete and then having it mapped by RS in Leeds.

Hi, I'm looking at removing the DPF & going with a remap on my 170 B7. Could anyone advise me on the best way to go ahead with this- Gutting and rewelding or replacing the complete pipework? For those who have already had this work done, do you find the car still smokes? Do you feel as if the...

So it would seem. I had wanted to change the plugs for a while but under advice didn't bother with it, my change of heart was after reading a thread on pistonheads on how Audi do things a certain way for emissions. Anyhow, lets hope the issue is resolved and this one is put to bed!

For those that have been following this- I purchased a set of NGK Ceramic glow plugs last week(The car had brand Bosch metal ones in as that was what was supplied from the dealer using my REG details, it looks as if the previous owner did the same as the car had a mix of plugs in when I bought...

Yeah me too, another ****** job created. The clowns could have cleaned the adhesive off and neatened things up for me :D hahaha

It sure is. It was an amateur job as the front grille has been damaged. Very petty for what's essentially £8 from fleabay.

All FYI- I had someone go to the trouble of stealing the Quattro badges from my B7 at 02:00 this morning from just outside of Leeds, W.Yorkshire. I suppose this is just to warn you guys to lock up your cars or at least keep an eye on them at night.

Ubor- I experience fault cods for Glow Plug circuit and Steering angle regularly, these have been cleared on 2-3 occasions, the ones listed above don't clear. I assumed the date that is present is the date when they're first logged?

Yeah the battery was replaced last week

Hi, I know I've posted something similar before but as I'm now at my witts end I'm searching for a last piece of guidance before the car has to go to Audi OR in the bin- One seriously fed up and wishing he hadn't have bothered Avant owner. I've got an electrical issue and the following fault...

Will update you on Saturday regarding this one :)
