Couldn't see any options for it in VCDS sadly. I don't think it's a contacts problem or I'd expect the pump to be more intermittent. There's just a consistent 2 second delay from pulling the lever to getting any spray
The jets don't kick in till the wipers have pretty much already reached the top of the screen. All the other cars I've ever driven have had the jets fire before or at least at the same time the wipers start going
Fine dust does scratch unfortunately, same reason you get swirl marks if you were to rub the paintwork down without washing if first. Glass is much harder wearing than paintwork of course but over time you'd still get the grazing as you do on high mileage cars. Only my car had that at 15k miles...
Does everyone else's wipers start going before the washer jets have sprayed the windscreen when doing a wash/wipe?
Find it hard to believe Audi would be daft enough to have their cars smear road grime over a dry windscreen before the pump kicks in so wondering if there's something wrong with my...
Given they all fail sooner or later is it worth changing the pump whilst refreshing the coolant? Would be just my luck for the pump to go just after putting fresh coolant in it lol.
I went the other way with this. Car came with it but turned it off through VCDS as found it too unpredictable. Much prefer controlling them manually but each to their own
Hi all,
One of the few things I've really not liked with the S1 is how limp the self-centering is on the gear shifter. It just feels wrong for what's supposed to be a joyful interaction on a sporty car. Like an olympic rower with the flaccid handshake of a hypoglycemic stamp collector. What's...
Initially I'd wanted one with the Bose system but then I realised that all the extra speakers and subwoofer add a fair bit of weight. I tend to prefer listening to the car anyway so went for one without in the end.
That said they definitely make the standard system pretty average (probably to...
Hi Mikael,
This change has made this car a keeper for me. Before the change I was considering selling it after less than 6 months whereas now I know I never will. Whilst still not as good as a decent hydraulic setup it takes the car back to being more like a car from the good old days when...
You're right in that the dash can't display it and it probably is calculated but there's no reason to believe the value would be that inaccurate.
I was just meaning there's definitely an output for it in the canbus gateway as it can be displayed (albeit probably calculated) by third party means.
The value for oil temperature is there as it's used in the FIS display: https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/custom-gauges-on-rmc-mmi-screen.427878/
It's also readable in VCDS
