    Dash Cam install (again) - QUICK QUESTION

    I recently purchased the BlackVue and PowerMagic thingy-ma-bob Just collected the car from the auto electrician after the install and the BlackVue is switching off when I turn off the ignition so no permanent live. Auto spark is a good friend and can't look at it until Thursday and if it's a...

    Q3 MyAudi steps going backwards

    My wife recently decided to change her Q5 for a Q3. The order for the Q3 is going through and she's been receiving build progress updates via MyAudi. However, the status reached 5 (can't remember what stage this is) and is now showing stage 3? Is it normal for MyAudi steps to reset or go...

    Something is squeaking

    Before I return to the dealer and ask them to take a look. I have a new S3 and I have a really annoying squeak coming from somewhere front passenger side (it's not the doors), it's not quiet, you don't have to 'listen for it' Anyone else experienced this and have any idea what it could be.

    Very very poor DAB radio reception

    You were right, I was wrong :) As mentioned I tried a few USB chargers and it didn't fix the problem. However, after trying my wife Griffin adator the problem is FIXED!! The Gem+ works fine where it is placed, I was surprised how good it did work. It does however give (not very often) false...

    Very very poor DAB radio reception

    Thanks, it's (get ready for this) a lid off a large cardboard tube! It fits perfectly. The road angel is sitting on its own mount which is stuck to this lid

    Paint flaking off!

    I don't think anything, I'm going off what I have been told! I did look at other cars in the dealership and yes they're painted but, not to the same finish as the rest of the car (see previous attached photo). IF the paint flakes, no big deal, I'll return and take up the offer of having the...

    Very very poor DAB radio reception

    Yes, I did notice those replies and it was the first thing I tried. However, as mentioned. It's not the USB adator that's the problem it is the actual Road Angel. If I unplug the Road Angle and have it running off it's internal battery it kills the DAB signal, as soon as I switch it off, DAB...

    Paint flaking off!

    Believe me, I'm a right fussy sod and if I didn't think it was right I would be asking for the respray. Perhaps the word 'scrap' is the wrong choice of words as there is no damage to the bumper etc. I'll get some photos uploaded so you can see exactly what's been done.

    Paint flaking off!

    Update. The dealer (Stoke Audi) have been fantastic about all of this. The paint (let's call it overspray) has been removed from the inner wheel arches on both sides so I am back to the black plastic bumper, which looks good. They also mentioned that if I wasn't happy with the result they...

    Very very poor DAB radio reception

    Solved, The car has been with the dealer most of the day and they managed to work out what was causing the problem. I have a Road Angel (GPS speed camera detector) with this switched on it completely destroys the DAB signal, unplug it and ta-da DAB works perfectly!!

    I have a Road Angel - Gem and it works perfectly. Constantly updated (subscription needed), all camera alerts including known locations for camera vans, it also alerts of known black spot areas.

    Paint flaking off!

    Quick update. I spoke to my local dealer again yesterday and the service manager had to speak to the "warranty guy". Apparently this IS NOT a warranty issue so if a repair is needed Sales (meaning another dept at the dealership) will need to pay. I'll know more on Monday morning when I drop...

    Paint flaking off!

    No damage at all, I really can't see it having a repair done before I owned it but I will never know. I did email the service manager yesterday saying I really didn't want this 'scrapped' and I am waiting for a reply to come back. The car is booked in for poor DAB reception on Monday so I...
