    What have you done to your 8V today?

    I’ve not had to calibrate mine. I mean it could probably do with it but the newer ones have dynamic calibration. Unless it’s past the tolerance and can’t compensate it’ll need tweaking or a proper cal. But I made sure to get my wheel alignment checked to make sure the rear toe was fine so the...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    It’s a bit in depth too be fair. I’d recommend getting the golf 7 radar so you get predictive acc which apparently wasn’t fitted to the 8v. It involves flashing the radar, removing cp, flashing again and then parameters loading and fec/swap complied and written it’s a lengthy process. Sent...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Finally finished all the retrofits so as of today I’ve now fitted: Tv, Roof rails, Direct TPMS, Supersport seats Blind spot assist, Windscreen camera for lane assist & traffic sign recognition, Full matrix lights, Predictive ACC (using the golf radar so uses nav data for speed limits) It’s...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Had the dreaded “617752 - Selector Lever Park Position Lock Switch” fault. Thankfully there’s a mod kit available (3Q0713128 for white top) so didn’t have to replace the whole lot for one micro switch. Straight forward install however if you do have to do this make sure the gear gator is put...

    Hey guys any idea what it’s worth?

    Hiya to be honest it is all oem just not all the same model lol. I’m not sure the charger would fit a uk console. I’m interested now though to see if it would work it would need a lot of dremel work I reckon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hey guys any idea what it’s worth?

    Yeah mate it’s time unfortunately. I reckon the side assist would still be possible it’s just time I don’t have time now with two little ones. In the end I’ve decided to take a bunch of the retrofits off and put it to as standard as possible then sell the parts as kits or something. Then give...

    Hey guys any idea what it’s worth?

    Thanks for the reply I’m going to probably remove a lot of the mods and retrofits and just list them on eBay as a friend of mine needs a car so I’ve told him once it’s done he can use/have it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hey guys any idea what it’s worth?

    Hi all bit of an odd question but since moving from my 8p to an 8v S3 it’s time to part with the old faithful 1.9TDI A3 but the question is what’s worth? I’m not sure as I’ve done so much to it but basics are: 2004 3 door 8p black (ebony black pearl LZ9W) 1.9 PD 5 Speed manual 218,000 miles...

    Facelift Mmi control vinyl or sticker?

    Hi everyone sorry if this has been asked before but I was wondering if there was some sort of sticker/cover or something for the mmi control trim that matches the brushed effect of the trim around the cup holders? I’ve tried looking around and all I can see are carbon fibre or shiny black full...

    PDC retrofit 2006 A3

    No providing it’s wired so CAN Hi is in pin 6 and CAN Lo is in 15 (at the pdc ecu) and you’ve connected the only end to the proper places for drivetrain you should be fine. However personally I wouldn’t use Ethernet cable for power and signal but if it works it works. Sent from my iPhone...

    PDC retrofit 2006 A3

    Hey no problem sorry I’ve been abit absent on here life gets in the way a lot also moved on to an 8v s3 (I’ve still got the 8p for the minute though [emoji4]) The closest PT can connection would be the steering column electrics. Depending on the timeframe you can get pre twisted cable on...

    It was moved on the facelift to the bcm so it’ll be all the way down the front of the vehicle however for the facelift install you’ll need powertrain can (drivetrain can) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    No worries I try and get back to people when I can. With the lumbar feed I’d rather just run a wire and fuse it properly (I think it’s SC2) and run it to both seats. That way it’s as oem as possible can definitely costs less. Safe to say I’ve got a few installs on the go though to be fair you...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    The rear B&O grill retrofit is in the middle of a tweak as I want them to be controlled by the mmi and need a bit of time to get that sorted. I’ve not fitted the wiring to the lumbar support yet but I’m pretty sure all I need on mine is power (I have to recheck) As for a kit I can give you the...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Thanks bud it took longer than I expected but wanted to make sure it was ok. We’re planning on using the box a lot and the I like the rails. Mate I know what you mean, the “javelin” method is just dangerous I don’t get why people do it. It’s like you say whoever buys it won’t have a clue. You’d...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Finally managed to get some time to install the roof rails on the S3 today. I’m not going to lie it was a bit nerve racking and multiple calls to a friend who’s do it before while doing the first side. After that was doing the other side flew in. Very pleased with the results Sent...

    Central Locking issues

    Check the wiring between the door and the body. It has a rubber boot around it. There’s been loads of posts about this and the majority have been answered with this being the first thing to check. Usually a broken wire as that loom flex’s with opening and closing the door and breaks over time...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    The rain has stopped me from carrying on with the tv & reverse camera install however I managed to finally sort out adding the B&O lighting to the rear door cards. At first I took the feed from the door handle lighting but changed it to the interior lighting circuit so they wouldn’t be on all...

    What have you done to your 8V today?

    Yeah mate it’s in good condition the only reason I’ve removed it is for the acc. It was fitted to the car less than 12 months ago. Send me a message if you want pics and stuff Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
